Looks good! How well does it hold up over time? How long until you'll need to redo it?

The heat pump was confirmed in writing somewhere. Maybe in the investment PDF they put out right before the results call?

Here's a better view of the steering wheel. It'll be interesting to see how those buttons work. It seems like there could be a lot of accidental presses. I'm not a huge fan of the steering wheel shape, but I guess Tesla is really leaning into the FSD. If you aren't actually driving the car...

I wonder if they are using the 4680 cells, but reduced the number because of the limited supply? It seems odd that they'd redesign the battery pack without changing the cells. It'll be interesting to hear what they announce on the earnings call tonight. I'm not a huge fan of the steering...

The new Model X is SOOO cool! Ahh!!!

I'd be ok either way. I like the FWDs, but the Model X is still the best EV SUV/CUV out there by far.

My wish list is relatively short, but I doubt Tesla will roll it all out at once. I could see them either doing the interior refresh OR the batteries. I don't know that they'll do both at the same time, but one can hope! - an interior refresh including a landscape screen and Model 3 style air...

I'd take ANYTHING the sales reps say with a grain of salt. They almost always know less than the average forum user (even about their current vehicles!). And with stuff like this, Tesla does a great job keeping it under wraps from any of the employees that aren't directly involved. They're...

Yes, I've been anxiously awaiting a refreshed Model X! I'm ready to pull the trigger on it once they update the interior. I'd also love some more range and the phone as a key feature, but those aren't complete deal breakers for me. I'm trying to keep my expectations low. haha. I actually...

That would be awesome! That's one of the things I really like about the Model 3. Although, the keyfob on the X actually more useful than other cars because you can open/close the falcon wing doors too with it. It's nice to start opening the falcon wing door as you're walking up so that it's...

Why would you ever need to break your windows anyways? Just roll the window down instead. Mythbusters tested it a long time ago. Even in gasoline cars, if they crash into the power windows still work for like a minute or two so you'd have plenty of time to roll them down to get out.

@verygreen has been awfully quiet about this shutdown and potential refresh. I wonder if he knows something, but Tesla asked him not to share it, or if Tesla had gotten better at hiding stuff from him?

The seats aren't actually leather. A while ago someone posted recommended cleaning instructions from the manufacturer of the seat material and they first recommend plain water and if you need something a little stronger they recommended some chemical that I can't remember right now, but most...

@verygreen to me, that sounds like it should mostly just help out with city driving. So I'm guessing we shouldn't expect much improvement for interstate driving where we really want the extra range. Darn!

@verygreen any ideas as to where Tesla was able to eek out 20 more miles of range in the Model X?
