Tesla Motors unveiled its current prototype of the Model X electric crossover Tuesday night at its Los Angeles Design Studio. The six-seater, featuring “Falcon Wing” rear doors, will come in rear-wheel drive, dual motor all-wheel drive, and performance dual motor all-wheel drive options, with a choice of a 60 kWh or 85 kWh pack.

Tesla notes that the second motor enables more than all-weather, all-road capabilities: it increases torque by 50%. When outfitted with AWD, Model X Performance accelerates from 0 to 60 mph in less than 5 seconds.

Tesla expects to begin production of Model X in late 2013, ramping up deliveries in early 2014. Model X will be priced comparable to a similarly equipped Model S. More details will be announced as production nears.

California-based Tesla designs and manufactures EVs and EV powertrain components for partners such as Toyota and Daimler. Tesla has delivered more than 2,000 Roadsters to customers worldwide. The Tesla Model S,the company’s second production vehicle, begins deliveries in mid-2012.
