Tesla Model X full pricing revealed

Tesla has revealed pricing for its four-tier 'Falcon-Wing' doored Model X SUV line-up which starts from $122,812 in Australia.

The four pronged Model X line-up starts with the 60D and moves through the 75D, 90D and the range-topping P90D.

The Tesla Model X 60D is priced at $122,812 including luxury car tax but before on-road costs.

While Australian specifications haven't yet been released, but it should closely mirror the US outputs which have the 60D producing 241kW and 525Nm from its dual motors - one over each axle.

It can sprint from 0-100km/h in 6.2 seconds and has a top speed of 210km/h with a claimed range of 350km from a single charge.

Stepping up to the Model X 75D will be priced from $139,842. In the US the 75D's performance figures remain the same but its range is increased significantly.

The Tesla Model X 90D will start from $163,242 before on-road costs. The 90D should offer increased performance with power likely to be increased to 310kW and 657Nm with a top speed of 250km/h and a 0-100km/h, along with an increase in range.

The range topping P90D model will be priced from $201,072, but will require an upgrade to unleash its Ludicrous Mode.

The P90D should see its performance figures rise to 310kW/830Nm and rise even further to 397kW/966Nm with Ludicrous Mode enabled.

Its top speed should remain the same as the 90D but with a further extension of its range.

Again, if the Model X 60D mirrors its US version it will be available with multiple seating layouts, either five, six or seven seats.

Tesla's Model S is protected by a four-year/80,000km warranty with the battery and drivetrain covered by an eight year/unlimited kilometre warranty and is expected to extend to the new Model X.

Australian specifications will be revealed closer to the car's launch date.
