Performance
The Tesla Model X Standard Range has a maximum power of 398 kW (541 hp / 534 bhp) and a total torque of 700 Nm (517 lb-ft). It accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h (0 to 62 mph) in 4.2 seconds and reaches a top speed of 250 km/h (155 mph).
Battery, Range, and Charging
The battery has a gross capacity of 100.0 kWh and a net usable capacity of 98.0 kWh, with a 2.0 kWh buffer (2.0%) for battery protection. With a nominal voltage of 407 volts, the system is classified as a 400-volt battery system.
The lithium-ion battery uses NCA technology.
Under the WLTP (Worldwide Harmonized Light Vehicles Test Procedure) standard, the maximum rated range is 543 km (338 miles). Depending on the configuration and options such as wheel size, the rated range can be as low as 528 km (328 miles). Larger wheels generally increase energy consumption and reduce range.
WLTP energy consumption is 18.0 kWh/100 km for the base configuration and 18.6 kWh/100 km for the highest-consumption configuration.
For more details about the range, see real-world data and range listings on this model’s range and consumption page.
The vehicle supports fast DC charging with a maximum power of 250 kW. A 0–100% charge takes approximately 108 minutes. A typical 10–80% session takes about 32 minutes at an average power of 129 kW.
With five minutes of overhead per stop, the optimal charging window is 7–47%. Effective average power, including overhead, is 142 kW over a session lasting about 17 minutes and 37 seconds.
In a 1000 km challenge at a constant speed of 120 km/h (75 mph) with an assumed consumption rate of 24.0 kWh/100 km, the trip would take about 9 hours and 21 minutes, needing four charging stops from 8% to 45%, totaling 62 minutes of charging time.
Onboard Charger
The standard onboard charger supports AC charging at up to 11 kW. A full 0–100% charge takes about 8 hours and 54 minutes with a suitable home charging setup.
Charge Port
The charge port is at the left rear corner, which suits charging stalls that require backing in.
Connector types vary by market. This model uses NACS in North America and CCS Combo 2 in Europe. See the full specifications for market-specific details.
Drivetrain

Suspension
The Tesla Model X Standard Range features a double wishbone front suspension and a multi-link rear suspension, both with electronically controlled dampers and air springs.
The suspension is fully adaptive on the front and rear axle, so height and damping can be adjusted manually and automatically.
The minimum ground clearance is 117 mm, and the maximum is 158 mm.
The Easy Entry function raises the car's body automatically when a door is opened, facilitating easier entry and exit. Once the door closes, the body returns to its previous level.
For easier loading, you can lower the air suspension from the rear.
