I haven't used or wanted a roof rack in 30 years (extra mass and drag at the highest location? No thanks), but the Model X has a lot of storage space, including the frunk so it's a non-issue.

The falcon doors also provide a surprising benefit: cover in the rain. And they are very practical with small children.

Sliding minivan doors get you both.

Optimized for showy and unique features, when a young Tesla really needed its products to stand out.
