Odd that Tesla (Elon) says the 4th car will be a mini Model X on this platform and we don't have a thread on it?
Let's start the discussion.
Smaller falcon doors?
Model Y?

IMO the falcon doors choice for Gen III's Model X-like crossover will depend upon how much successful will be the Model X. If the Model X will be very successful falcon doors will be present also on Gen III's Model X-like crossover.
Yeah, i think Falcon doors are a relativley complicated and thus expensive design. Great for a luxury SUV, makes it really stand out, but not too good for a more affordable car.
I kind of like Model Y, guys! Could stand for "Young" or "Youth" (traget audience of an X3 class car) and is also the next letter after X, so makes sense in many ways.
So is this the size of an Amigo? Juke? Outback?

Hopefully it's an Evoke competitor. My WAG (Wild A** Guess) is that the falcon doors stay a premium feature. Even the baby Lamborghini (Gallardo) has "normal" doors and not "lambo" doors
It would be a defining feature and great for any cab. Maybe a cheaper way would be to have sliding doors.

If Gen III is a 3 series sized car, then I would expect the crossover to be an X3 competitor, which is a hair larger than the Honda CRV or the Toyota RAV4. This segment also represents the highest selling size of SUV.

What I find interesting is that we already have a Rav4 sized Tesla powered EV, but it doesn't sell.
Part of it is the price, which is coming down, and part is that it's a Toyota, not a Tesla.
Waiting for Tesla to work its magic!
