Tesla unveiled its new Model X SUV crossover at a massive gathering in Fremont, California. CEO Elon Musk gave thorough presentation of the many capabilities of the $132,000 electric crossover. Equipped with two electric motors and a 90 kWh battery pack, the Model X P90D equipped with Ludicrous Mode can reach 60 mph in just 3.2 seconds and reach a top speed of 155 mph. In addition, the 5,400-pound P90D can go 250 miles on a single charge.

Musk outlined many of the Model X's standout features including its Falcon Wing doors, panoramic windshield, intuitive automatic doors and monopost seats.
