Tesla Model X Deliveries To Begin In Three To Four Months

Tesla CEO Elon Musk has declared the timetable for Model X deliveries is finally on track; this follows numerous delays for the new model from the barnstorming all-electric new carmaker.

The first SUV for the all-electric carmaker was supposed to hit the market in 2013, but several delays caused by the popularity of the Model S and Tesla’s ‘don’t rush, get it right’ approach will see the Model X launched in the US during the third or final quarters of this year.

Late last year, Tesla announced a Q3 2015 debut for the Model X, and the carmaker looks set to keep that promise with Musk announcing deliveries for US customers will begin in the next “three to four months”.

Musk said he has recently been driving the Model X prototype, stating at the carmaker’s annual shareholder’s meeting this week that the Model X will be better at ‘being’ an SUV than the Model S is at being a luxury sedan.

Some Tesla customers put deposits down for Model Xs over three years ago. Of these, Bloomberg reports that the EV SUV is proving popular among female buyers.
