I have a short video, poorly shot, and 90 degrees off, but I will post it, or e-mail it to someone who has an editor to correct the orientation.

You were there?

Local news guy with video.

Test Drive: Tesla Model X - ktla.com

He uses the old Tesla logo, but manages to get some comments for Bill Nye and Chelsea.

Here is a bad video, sorry not paying attention to the camera, and enjoying the ride.

Not sure if this has been posted anywhere, but Tesla has the official video up. Tesla Unveils Model X | Blog | Tesla Motors

They edited the part where the frunk wouldn't open. lol.

But not the guy sheepishly taking the luggage out at the end...


BTW I found the vimeo client on my HDTV. Now I can pick out face in the crowd

I haven't seen any X ride videos (It felt less than 60 seconds). I just had my still camera.

They also used a shot of the S dash, not the X.

What's going on with the roof in this shot:

Window on one side and not on the other?

I noticed come CF in the center hib of the wheels.

Kinda see it here:

I noticed some Carbon Fiber on the front grill near the top. Looked really sharp!

 

[JRP3]

I think it's the wide angle perspective distortion making the middle roof section look larger than it is. I think you can just see the corner of the window above the person's head on the right.

Windows on both sides embedded in the Falcon Doors. So the sunroof windows take up the left third and right third of the roof while the middle third is just a plain roof.

By the way that means you've got great headroom on left and right but not so much in the middle.

Yeah, noticed that too. But, it may not have been CF - looked more like metal mesh to me. Was commenting to AnOutsider that something like that would add some pizzazz to the otherwise-bland Model S nose (the only part of the S that I'm not fond of).

I haven't seen any X ride videos...

My ride:

 

[JRP3]

Did anyone ask if the screen is going to be more smoothly integrated into the dash instead of sticking up like a afterthought?

This is correct.

I would say there is lots of head room in the center. The sides just have even more at the windows.

I didn't ask, but I actually liked the way it looked floating above the dashboard like that.
I prefer it that way compared to the look in Model S.

Good commentary but he wasn't exactly pushing it through the turns...
