My 90D has an active spoiler with 3 positions. The down position can only be forced by powering the car down (either manually from the display OR by taking the keyfob away from it). Otherwise, the wing comes up when starting the car and it moves based on speed
No major issues. A few minor punch list items. But no where near the types or number of issues some were having on late March and earlier builds (touches wood).
Coming from an S60 Classic, really loving the extra range. It will make some road trips so much easier (and in some cases, possible).
I have already gotten used to the self closing doors when stepping on the brake (and being able to open/close any/all doors from the console).

Many of this have this issue. Tesla confirmed it's a bug and will be fixed in a future SW update. It just does not stay down for very long when locked.

Let's be clear, every none-Premium 90D came with a spoiler (active or not). Am I right?
Does anyone has a model X that does not come with a spoiler?

I think it's "Performance" models come with active spoiler (P90X). Not "Premium," right? This could cause confusion as 90Ds (non-P) can get the premium package upgrade.

Correct. But so far all 90Ds seem to have it too. I am not going to be a happy camper if it gets turned off though.

I have not gone through this entire thread but I wanted to share something I learnt today. Pardon me if this is well known already but this has been a point of confusion at least for us 75D folks. I saw the non-active spoiler today. I am regretting not taking pictures but I will try to explain the difference between active and non active spoilers. On the non performance (not premium/PUP) variants the spoiler is fixed in the upright max position for brake light visibility and there are no grooves/channel for the spoiler to move. On the performance variants there is obviously a groove for the spoiler to retract and move up and down with a circular cap like structure with a hole on the ends of the spoiler (possibly a sealing/seating mechanism). I was told by the DS that all non performance variants on all Xs going forward will have the fixed spoiler.
If so, I'm glad I got the active spoiler before they introduced the fixed one.

This is the first report of anyone actually seeing a fixed spoiler in the flesh. Really wish you'd taken a picture!
Was this on a yet to be delivered 90D? Or was it on an X still on the production line?
Did the rear hatch glass extend underneath it all the way?
Thanks for the report. I was hoping this change was still a few months out.

Yes this was an X waiting for delivery. A 90D PUP.This is the first report of anyone actually seeing a fixed spoiler in the flesh. Really wish you'd taken a picture!

Yes, the glass extended all the way beneath the spoiler just like the active ones.
**facepalm for not taking pictures**

Damn. That's what I have on order. Hmmm, this might be the final straw for me to upgrade to the Performance package. If I even can.
So 3.8s/3.2s accelation can not be the straw but spoiler that comes down is? That's what I call priority.

Oh trust me, the 3.8 is the real draw for sure. Just need a bit more than that to push me over the edge of the more $$$ and less range conundrum.So 3.8s/3.2s accelation can not be the straw but spoiler that comes down is? That's what I call priority.
Oh and I should add that I'm trying to a responsible adult and you're not helping!

Posted with details elsewhere.
Fixed spoiler, was going thru pics when I spotted I may have taken a teaser pic. Cropped and enhanced a bit.

I just looked at the owners manual in my Tesla ,ive ordered the 90d but just confirmed no vin yet. Anyway in the manual it shows active spoiler and has this statement
The Model X has a rear spoiler designed to improve aerodynamics. The position of the spoiler can vary depending on the status and speed of Model X: • When Model X is in Reverse or when driving speed is below 10 mph (16 km/h), the spoiler provides maximum visibility behind Model X. • When driving speed exceeds 45 mph (72 km/h), the spoiler lowers to the position that provides the most effective aerodynamics. • When Model X is powered off and locked, the spoiler retracts. To allow the spoiler to automatically move as described above, touch Controls > Settings > Service & Reset > Spoiler > Automatic. To disable automatic movement of the spoiler, which keeps it in its extended position, choose the Extended setting. Note: If the spoiler can not automatically lower or raise, the instrument panel displays an alert.
