Tesla Model X Officially Discontinued, Final Vehicle Signed by Employees
Recently, Tesla officially confirmed the discontinuation of the Model X, with the last vehicle rolling off the production line at the Fremont factory in California. The car shell is covered in employee signatures, marking the final piece of this model. According to Tesla employee Steve Pennewell on social media, the shell of the last Model X is filled with employee signatures and will subsequently be painted in a special "Granite Red" and fitted with a unique center console plaque, preserving it as a collectible Model X Plaid.
Model X and Model S were once Tesla's early flagship models, establishing the brand's high-end image and industry benchmark status.
Since the launch of Model 3 and Model Y, sales of the two flagship models have continued to decline, and their market share has dropped significantly.
Tesla's global delivery data for 2025 shows that Model 3 and Model Y combined delivered approximately 1.6 million vehicles, while other models including Model S and Model X delivered a total of approximately 50,000 vehicles, accounting for only a single-digit percentage of total deliveries.
With Tesla's strategic adjustments, Musk announced that the original Model S and Model X production lines at the Fremont factory will be transformed for the production of Optimus humanoid robots, officially removing the two classic flagship models from mass production.
