Tesla CEO Elon Musk revealed the long-awaited Model X sport-utility vehicle Tuesday night at the company factory just south of San Francisco. Billed as the world’s quickest SUV, the electric crossover can go from 0 to 60 mph in as little as 3.2 seconds and has a range of 250 miles per charge. The new car includes a windshield that lets you see the sky above you as well its signature feature of radical upward-opening “falcon doors” for the second row. The Model X will determine whether Tesla can compete against luxury automakers like Mercedes-Benz, BMW, and Lexus in the crossover market. The new vehicle comes with a pricetag starting at $132,000 for the initial “signature” version.
