European update of the family 2021+; the catalog indicates 2022+. The “+” sign does not mean new cars are on sale. Current European guidance Tesla Model X 2021+, checked 02.10.2026. The height of 1680 mm refers to the average suspension position; 1720 mm - to the maximum. This is the current family data, not a separate archive specification for 2022; for early cars, check VINs and documents. Data checked 2 October 2026.

Key changes

  • The Falcon Wing persists; the outer silhouette itself is insufficient to define a generation.
  • In the new cabin there is a horizontal central screen and a separate rear screen.
  • The live guide covers all three salons. This does not mean that every salon is available for any version of Plaid, any year or market; it does not mean that you can check out a particular car.

What to check when buying

  • Check the opening and closing of both doors, warnings and calibration; then evaluate the space in your garage. Tesla describes obstacle sensors and individual calibration, and film and door stickers can influence obstacle detection.
  • Check real 5, 6 or 7 seats, third row access and seat movement. In the new X, the manual separately describes folding seats and Monopost seats; the same name Model X does not guarantee the same load scenario.
  • Before buying, try out a specific steering wheel or steering wheel, direction indicators, choice of direction and rear screen. Clarify the established functions on the car itself: the manual covers several trim levels and years.
  • The width with mirrors in the verified manual is 2271 mm. Separately check the space for the Falcon Wing and the back cover: its top point when opened, depending on the configuration, can reach about 2.5 m.
