I love the X and would have opted for it over the S, except for:
- the seats didnt change to sport seats, and frankly im bored of Tesla’s interior and much prefer the sport seats, it makes it feel like a much needed refresh
- X’s used to open the door for you automatically upon approach - it pops open now instead of opening wide. Not a total buzzkill, but being used to the older X that popped wide open i think that would have annoyed me every time upon approach
personally i think the X is ugly, looks like a minivan whereas the S is gorgeous. That’s part of the appeal of the X, but the above led me to another S.

This is now resolved with 2024.20.X.

MS is faster, lower, feels more planted, X is smoother over bumps, higher, a bit more loose into turns.
They are very similar cars built on the same chassis.
I find the ride quality to be similar, S feeling a bit less floaty.
I haven't been in an X Plaid, just LR
The S is beautiful and the X looks like a giant egg. Unless Scarlett Johansson comes with the X, the S is a no brainer lol
HTH are you guys comparing an S and an X? The S is a large sports sedan. The X is a huge SUV. Why are you comparing triangles to rectangles? They serve completely different purposes. I can understand comparing a 3 to an S (it's just smaller), or even a Y to an X, but S to X is just apples to oranges.

I have had 2 Xs and 2 Ss - I currently have a plaid s and X.
I think the X rides smoother, it is bigger inside and outside - I prefer it for around town with the family.
I think the S is quieter, handles better, sportier less SUV feeling inside. I prefer driving the S for fun, road trips and commuting.
But they are very very similar. The S is my favorite all-purpose car.

So you’d choose the S for 3 hour commuting round trips on the weekend over the X? X rides better but is noisier?
The S is better on the interstate (smother, doesn't get pushed in the wind at all) and has more range.

Yes, for sure. The X rides better at slow speeds. I am not sure if it is the weight, the size or the suspension suits the X better but the X has more wind and road noise over the S above 70.

Maybe the tires. Rims might be bigger on X thus bigger tires and more road noise
