How much is a 2022 Tesla Model X?

The 2022 Tesla Model X starts at $99,990, which isn’t quite six figures. That’s the price for the Long Range. If you want the 2022 Tesla Model X Plaid, it will cost you a whole lot more – $119,990 to $150,000. Obviously, the 2022 Model X Long Range is cheaper, but that isn’t the only advantage of it. It also gets more range (as its name implies).

However, the Tesla Model X 0-60 time in the Plaid is 2.5 seconds. That’s incredibly fast, and if you’re the kind of person who nervously accelerates onto the highway until you’ve reached traveling speed, it just might be worth the extra $50,000. The Tesla Model X 0-60 time in the Long Range is 3.8 seconds. That’s still incredibly fast, but if having the speediest SUV on the block is your priority, the Plaid just might be the way to go.

The Tesla Model X interior is really nice

One of the best parts of the 2022 Tesla Model X is its interior. The 2022 Model X can come with three rows, making it one of the electric passenger vehicles with the most seating capacity. There’s also plenty of cargo space in the 2022 Model X, so whether you need it as a daily commuter or a road-trip worthy ride, the Model X has you covered.

Kelley Blue Book says that the 2022 Tesla Model X interior resembles that of the Model S, though obviously they’re different vehicles. The Model X has a yoke steering wheel, which has been causing a bit of controversy lately. Tesla SUV also has an enormous 17-inch infotainment screen and an 8-inch rear entertainment screen, so you can keep younger passengers entertained on long trips. Plus, the Model X has the ability to be used for gaming, like a mobile arcade.

Don’t forget the panoramic glass roof, heated seats and steering wheel, ventilated front seats, and a super nice 22-speaker sound system.

Is the Tesla Model X worth the money?

For the Tesla Model X price, you’ll get a more powerful motor and a better battery. It’s hard to say if the 2022 Tesla Model X is worth the money without knowing exactly what it will include. However, it’s very likely that you’ll get a solid, reliable electric SUV that’s on the cutting edge of technology. And if you’re a Tesla lover, you’ll probably be happy to spend the money for the new 2022 Tesla Model X.

Tesla SUVs are unique and not like other SUVs, even electric ones. Its technology, seating and speed make it preferable to most electric SUVs on the market. Its Back-to-the-Future-style doors make it cool, like the kind of car you may have dreamed about having as a little kid. And if you can afford the upfront investment, it just might save you money in the long-run.

If you can’t afford the 2022 Tesla Model X or just don’t want to spend that much money on your car, Kelley Blue Book recommends checking out the 2022 Tesla Model Y. It’s another Tesla SUV at a more affordable price. Still, the Tesla Model X is worth the money it costs. It really comes down to whether that’s an amount of money you’re able or willing to pay.
