  • The Tesla Model X is the most popular model from the Tesla Electic Car Line-up but there has been a lot of doubt on whether this car would be able to work in Nigeria because the Tesla has a lot of awesome features that makes it stand out.
    The major concerns are on how the car will survive without stable electricity in Nigeria.
    We tested the major features of this car and also spoke to the Owner on how the car survives in Nigeria.
    This car is being maintained and serviced by @smilesautos.
    The owner of the vehicle is Alkesh Thavrani; an avid investor in the African startup scene and a shareholder in Bitsikaafrica who also has Davido as a shareholder.

    U watch car reviews a lot and I'm impressed how you do your presentations.
    On Tesla in Nigeria, I can remember I sited the model x on Osborne road some time ago and I was happy. But earlier before then, I made a post about how I was yet to see the cyber truck in Lagos. So I was really excited to see the model x.
    Xmas day 2021 I saw another Tesla at landmark event center I was like "this is the Lagos I know!"

    The tesla technology is brilliant...😍 But the build quality is not so good compared to other luxury brands. An Adaptive Cruise Control is probably as good as Tesla's Auto Pilot in Nigeria.
    And you didn't let us hear different fake drive sounds it can makes. I like the V8 rumbling sound shaa😉

      For any regular, if IT STOPS on the road, anyhow-anyhow, you and Kazeem mechanic will make it work again.
      But this Tesla, if it STOPS? HENH!! Them no dey push this car O. Them no fit tow am. Tires will lock. If battery died/disconnect, the door will lock. You can't even come out. If it catches fire, that's the end O. 3 days, the fire will continue burning. Henh!!!
