Tesla has implemented a new promotion for customers of the Model X Long Range Dual Motor All Wheel Drive (AWD) in the United States. The promotion, which was recently observed on the vehicle’s official order page, allows Model X AWD customers to gain a premium add-on to their vehicle for free.
As could be seen in the Model X AWD’s order page, add-ons such as premium paint options, 22” Turbine Wheels, Black and White Interior, Six or Seven Seat Interior, and Yoke Steering could be free if Full Self-Driving (FSD) is fully purchased with the vehicle.
With FSD ordered with the Model X AWD, the highest-priced add-on to the vehicle would be free of charge. For example, if a customer orders the Model X AWD with a Seven-Seat Interior, which costs $3,500, and Lunar Silver Paint, which costs $2,500, the Seven Seat Interior will be complimentary.
This means that as long as FSD is ordered with the Model X AWD, even the vehicle’s more pricey add-ons, such as its Six Seat Interior, which costs $6,500, and its 22” Turbine Wheels, which cost $5,500, could be complimentary. It should be noted, however, that customers must order FSD’s full $8,000 add-on to avail of the promotion, not the recently announced Drive Anywhere Package, which bundles FSD, free Supercharging, and Premium Connectivity for three years.
It remains to be seen how the recently launched promotion would be received by consumers, though it does make the Model X AWD more appealing. The promotion itself probably does not cost Tesla a lot either, as the Model X does not sell in very high volumes. As per Tesla’s Q2 2024 vehicle delivery and production report alone, the company reported 443,956 deliveries worldwide during the quarter, 422,405 of which were Model 3 and Model Y.
This meant that all of Tesla’s other vehicles — the Cybertruck, Semi, Model S, and Model X — only saw 21,551 units delivered in the second quarter. From this number, Cox Automotive estimated that 8,755 were comprised of the Cybertruck. Considering that the Semi is still being produced in very limited quantities, it would appear that less than 13,000 Model S and Model X were sold in Q2.
