Tesla confirms Model X SUV pricing for Australia

Tesla has announced Australian prices for its entire Model X SUV line-up, due to go on sale in October.

This follows last month’s report that the Model X line-up would kick off at $122,812 for the base spec Model X 60D.

The latest announcement from the electric vehicle maker reveals how much Australians will pay for the rest of the range.

Available in four specifications the Model X 75D will sit above the 60D and list at $139,842, while on the next rung up is the 90D for $163,242, and topping the line-up will be the P90D for $201,072.

Its top-of-the-range P90D can sprint from 0-100km/h 4.0 seconds.

Tesla boasts that the all-electric Model X is “the safest, quickest and most capable sport utility vehicle in history” claiming its top-of-the-range P90D can sprint from 0-100km/h 4.0 seconds – an optional ‘Ludicrous’ mode will cut that to 3.4 seconds all while having an official range of 467km.

Even lesser variants have impressive athletic ability with the 90D hitting 100km/h from a standstill in 5.0 seconds while the 75D and 60D can do it in 6.2 seconds.

Full specifications for the Australian line-up are yet to be revealed.

At 5036.82mm in length the seven-seater SUV Model X is 218mm longer than the Mercedes-Benz GLE 500e hybrid  and 150mm longer than BMW’s X5 xDrive 40e hybrid.

Unlike other car manufacturers Tesla doesn’t stockpile its vehicles in dealerships, but rather customers can order their Model X online and from there it is built in California and delivered to a service centre in Australia for pick up.
