If you haven’t heard the news, Elon Musk recently launched Tesla’s latest electric vehicle called the Model X. While not particularly as sexy as the 2014 sport Model S, the X surely didn’t have Musk hold back when it came to showing off some really advanced tech. As Tesla notes, “Model X is the SUV uncompromised”.
Besides its 90 kWh battery providing 250 miles (around 400km) of range, the Model X is an four-wheel drive machine that can transport up to seven people. Yes, it has up to seven seats which can be accessed via the X’s awesome Falcon Wing doors.

We’ve rounded up some of photos for you to glare at while you sort out your mortgage plans. The estimated delivery for new reservations is the latter half of 2016, so you’ll have some time at least. Rumoured to be around the US$125 000 and US$140 000.
