Cons Overinflated Model S looks Gimmicky rear doors Easily hits six figures Not as spacious as you’d think
Tesla updates its vehicles on an ongoing basis rather than at discrete model-year intervals. As such, there's no clear-cut "new for 2018" information. Features and trim levels are tweaked sporadically. Notable recent changes compared to 2017 Model Xs include new fold-flat second-row seating and streamlining of the Model X's optionsavailability. The 90D trim level has also been discontinued.
PROS Instant, giddying acceleration Good range for an electric vehicle Three-row seating is available Very quiet
CONS Vast windshield lets far too much sun and heat into the cabin Finicky upward-swinging rear doors impede functionality
