so I've had the Model X for about two weeks now and I've had a ton of questions from you guys about it I get it because it's kind of a weird car the doors are strange it looks weird nothing about this car is sort of a typical cards it's really a piece of tech that you can drive so we put out questions and all our social media to see what big questions you guys had about the Model X I'm doing my best to answer each one of them this one comes from snapchat I'll to hear a bit more about the sound system and phone connectivity can it store a library for offline play so I ordered the cars upgraded sound mostly because that's only way to get satellite radio it's XM built in but if you are into music you do get things like Dolby Surround you get more granular control over the speakers and you get a better audio experience it also comes built into some streaming options you've got slacker and TuneIn it's got an LTE radio integrate into the car just use that to stream and that's free you don't pay for any of the data at the cars using at least four four right now it doesn't have any built-in storage sort of offload stuff to but all the streaming options make it really nice and of course Bluetooth connectivity for connecting the phone though you don't have to have it plugged in in order to stream anything from your phone and do that via bluetooth but I do have a quick dock Lightning connection built into the car I had a choice of either lightning or microUSB didn't have a USBC option so I figured things moving away from micro have a lightning in there just in case I ever I'm using an iPhone for them so what is the average range of the car there are few different options you can get I got 275 d2 75 mean it's got a 75 kilowatt hour battery the D means dual motors there is a 90 kilowatt hour battery pack and then there's a 100 kilowatt out about hour battery pack on it's going to give you more range as you move up the advertised range in the 75 237 it jumps up 257 for the 9v and about 289 290 for the hundred kilowatt hour battery pack that's a few charger battery up to 100% it's not good for the car it generally charged up 200% so I'm doing 80% charge which usually were I keep it most of the time I have a range of about 207 miles I drove up to Los Angeles as past weekend so I kicked it out got 90% and I had a range of 217 miles built into the car I've been using autopilot if so is your experience with it been so I got this car with autopilot 2.0 hardware what that is it's eight cameras all along the car and enhanced censoring ability with a huge supercomputer built-in that's a plus side the downside of that is does have any autopilot abilities right now so I can't even do it autopilot one cars can do Elon Musk assay that's coming by and get this week and probably when you're watching this video I'll already have general autopilot stuff right now I don't have it we've got a ton of cameras that will work in the future but things that I should expect by end of the week I should expect the enhanced lane keep so essentially I can drive hands-free and look can to keep me in the lane and follow gradual turn ultimately though this car is equipped for full level-5 autonomy meeting I get in the car in the morning I go to work I can go to sleep in the back Elon Musk and Tesla have said that should be around the end of 2017 but that's barring some gigantic regulatory approval also oddly with the car though the autopilot sensors control things like automatic headlights wipers being able to detect when Deranian things like that so I don't even have that stuff working in this car you don't know what Tesla gets over there updates when I say get that ability just like on your phone I'll get a push notification on my screen saying I have a software update I push install it's only the cars gotten features former intern Dan Gillis you had the wings hit anyone or anything I have not the way he's actually been really sensitive and have not hit anything I have a pretty tight garage and they open up just far enough for me to get in and out never hit anything in the doors themselves I can control the front doors from the touchscreen and open those up they have sensors in them as well and those stop from hitting a car which is which is kind of cool from Instagram why don't you pick the Model X over any other car what makes it special to you I was driving a Model S before this and I really liked the performance of an electric car I like technology into it and I like driving electric overall so when I got that car I didn't have kids I now have two kids which means I'm hauling a lot of people a lot of stuff and strollers I Drive my son to school on the weekends I'm generally driving both kids around so I wanted a car that could grow with us if we end up having a third kid I could be able to have car seats installed I didn't have that flexibility necessarily with the Model S so I figured let's try the exo in bit nervous by how those doors are gonna hold up but I will say the doors have been working great and ensure that you get to get kids in and out and that was another big reason that I wanted to get the MS has an impact your monthly energy bill so I've got a second meter installed at my house I can set the car to charge off hours so for me after nine o'clock the rates dropped down to 11 cents a kilowatt so I just did it to charge at 9:05 generally for a thousand miles of driving Universal end up costing me twenty thirty bucks you know depending if I charge at public stations or discharged home very middle impact on my lectric feel at home so how long does it take to charge a good question so for my home I've got a 240 outlet installed I think I have it set for 30 amps that charges at 27 miles per hour so you can do the math right there generally less than 10 hours from an empty car fully charged I don't generally drive to almost zero like a cell phone I plug in at night I come out in the morning I unplug it and it's fully charged I can't go to Tesla supercharger though and I get eighty percent charge in about twenty thirty minutes so lots of questions on the test so we covered a huge amount on the doors if you have questions about that watch the video link it up here and down both sort of goes over the doors I thought about the delivery experiences like we did a video kind of documenting that as well but generally I'm really happy at the car I've had no issues you know quality problems you know we'll see how those Falcon things hold up over the course of a three-year lease but I'm hoping I don't have any problems but we'll see thank gosh watching hope you enjoyed if you want more Tesla videos - I'm going to putting a ton more up on our secondary channel inside
