    Tesla To Show Model X Crossover Next Month

    Tesla CEO Elon Musk has confirmed that a prototype of the all-electric Model X crossover will be revealed on February 9 at Tesla’s design studio in California.

    Originally to be shown at NAIAS, the Model X will use the Model S sedan’s aluminum-intensive platform. Power is expected to go to all four wheels possibly by utilizing the Model S’s electric drivetrain at the rear wheels while adding one to two electric motors up front to power the front wheels.

    Besides the pure EV, the Model X will seek to stand out in the crossover market by having a large interior. In a filling with U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission in May, Tesla said that it was “designing the Model X to incorporate the functionality of a minivan with the consumer appeal of a sports-utility vehicle.”

    • OUCH so happy this is blowing up in the idiot administrations face. Don Lemon’s arrest turned into a MAGA misfire
    • Oops, welcome to Idiot47 Tariff party GM, want to reduce employees and shifts, then a refund is required to the canadian people. GM took the money, now Canada wants payback
    • She lives in Dallas and is always making videos from her basement, wearing a stocking cap. Go figure. But she is absolutely right about Tesla.    Trump wants Canadian aircraft to quit flying because....things....however, a huge part of American airline fleet is either Airbus or Canadian/Brazilian made. And even the 787 Dreamliner has a lot of imported parts. I guess Passenger rail comes back and Greyhound scores bigly. 
    • That makes South Korean cars and Chinese cars to maybe sometime in the future have manufacturing plants of cars, batteries, anything related in the automotive supply chain to be built in Canada...replacing a centuries old partnership with detroit's automobile industry.  detroit's automobile industry is kowtowing and bowing to king trump the dicktator and will soon close down its manufacturing industry in Canada.  This is Canada protecting its own automotive industry.  And I personally say:  Phoque general motors!!! Phoque ford motor company!!!   Phoque chrysler corp!!! Phoque tesla!!! Phoque the united states of america!!!  I say bring on the Asian car industry!!!    Now...time to replace our aging american fighter jets with something more Swedish!!!
