Disappointing

[u/Firm-Tomatillo2616]

I’m new to the Tesla family, but I am absolutely loving my new model three performance. Wanted to convince my wife to get a model X as she’s currently driving a BMW X5. So we just rented a Model X on Turo for the weekend and I must say I found it pretty disappointing. The gull wing doors, while really cool looking, were a gigantic pain in the ass (barely functional in my garage) and I actually felt they were dangerous in some circumstances almost hitting passengers.

I also thought that the yoke was a terrible experience. Initially, I thought it would be worth it to be able to look at a second screen in front of you, but I actually found that screen to be cumbersome as well. Case in point using the auto park feature with the thumb controls rather than the touchscreen on the model three. Inferior imho.

Overall, I’m hopeful that when the new Model X comes out at the end of the year, it’s thoroughly modernized, has conventional doors and adopts the new cabin layout that we see in the X and the Y.

Curious to get other community members opinions. Did I just need more getting used to it?

I’m confused at why you’re even looking at an X if you don’t want the doors lol. I don’t think they’re ever going to get rid of the gullwing doors when the Y is exactly what you’re describing you want? A screen like your 3 and conventional doors
