Last updated August 13, 2026

2019 Tesla Model X

The 2019 Tesla Model X received a meaningful midyear update rather than a full redesign. The headline change was April’s Raven overhaul, so build date matters when comparing 2019 examples.

About the 2019 Tesla Model X

1st generation Model X (2016-2020), late-cycle year with a major midyear Raven drivetrain and suspension update plus a trim-name reset.

Tesla positions the Model X as a premium electric SUV that mixes long-distance EV range, very quick acceleration, dual-motor all-wheel drive, and family usefulness. What makes it stand out is not just that it is electric: it also offers falcon wing rear doors, a panoramic windshield, available three-row seating, and a software-heavy cabin that can gain features over time. In 2019, very few rivals combined this much straight-line speed with three-row SUV packaging.

Early-2019 versions used 75D, 100D, and P100D names, with the 100D focused on driving range and the P100D focused on acceleration. After the update, Standard Range became the entry version, Long Range emphasized distance between charges, and Performance served as the quickest model. Every version retained signature features such as dual-motor AWD, power falcon-wing rear doors, a navigation touchscreen, and a panoramic windshield, while later builds received fully adaptive air suspension.

What changed, by category

Powertrain
Post-April Raven models received an updated dual-motor AWD drive-unit design for better efficiency and stronger acceleration. The range also moved from 75D, 100D, and P100D naming to Standard Range, Long Range, and Performance.
Structural
Post-April Raven builds gained fully adaptive air suspension, which could adjust more precisely than the earlier air-suspension setup.
Tech
Raven models charged more quickly on Tesla’s latest Superchargers. On early-2019 75D and 100D versions, the heated steering wheel and premium audio changed from optional to standard.

How the 2020 Tesla Model X compares

The biggest 2020 change is the midyear arrival of Long Range Plus, which replaced the early Long Range as the distance-focused Model X with higher rated range. This was a trim update, not a redesign.

Frequently asked questions

What was the biggest change to the 2019 Tesla Model X?

The biggest change was the midyear Raven update introduced in April 2019. It brought an updated drivetrain, stronger acceleration, better efficiency, faster Supercharging, and fully adaptive air suspension without changing the basic body design.

Do all 2019 Tesla Model X vehicles have the Raven update?

No. Early-2019 vehicles retained the older hardware and 75D, 100D, or P100D names, while post-April builds received the Raven updates and used Standard Range, Long Range, or Performance names. Checking the build date and trim name helps distinguish them.

Which 2019 Tesla Model X version focused most on driving range?

The Long Range was the range-focused choice after the midyear update, while the 100D filled that role in early 2019. The later Long Range also received the Raven drivetrain, faster charging, and fully adaptive air suspension.

Was the 2019 Tesla Model X fully redesigned?

No. The 2019 Model X kept the same first-generation body, cabin layout, panoramic windshield, and falcon-wing rear doors. Its major changes were beneath the surface, centered on the midyear drivetrain, charging, suspension, and trim-name update.

Is a 2019 Tesla Model X meaningfully different from a 2018 model?

Yes, if it is a post-April Raven build. Those later 2019 vehicles have the updated drivetrain, quicker Supercharging, fully adaptive air suspension, and revised trim names; early-2019 examples are much closer to the 2018 version.
