This is no slouch for an SUV. Safety features abound in the Tesla X with Parking sensors, blind spot and side collision warnings, and automatic emergency braking.

Tesla claims that the Model X is the most aerodynamic SUV in production. At 0.24, Model X’s drag coefficient is 20% lower than the next best SUV. In addition, an active spoiler deploys from the rear lift gate to optimize highway efficiency and stability.

The Tesla Model X is also said to come with a medical grade HEPA filter that strips outside air of pollen, bacteria, viruses and pollution before circulating it into the cabin. There are three modes: circulate with outside air, re-circulate inside air and a bioweapon defense mode that creates positive pressure inside the cabin to protect occupants. Is this the ultimate Zombie apocalypse vehicle?

Tesla automobiles have been at the forefront of innovation since their inception, and the Tesla Model X is no exception. While the major automobile manufacturers have yet to catch up with the advances that Tesla has made, they soon will. The Tesla X is an automobile of the future, and the future is now.
