Now that Tesla finally has a full line-up out there, with more and more of its EVs adorning people's driveways and garages, owners can take the time to dig into the little aspects of Tesla vehicles, the ones reviewers don't have time to check out.
Let's take the piece of Model X footage at the bottom of the page, for example. Coming from a Tesla-loving family, this sees the mother trying to see whether a road bike fits inside the electric SUV.

Sure, many such bikes come with removable front wheels, but the trick here is to see whether the pedal contraption can fit inside the car without having its front wheel taken off.

As you'll be able to see in the video, this is the six-seat Model X interior, with the rear seats having been folded for this adventure. As for the middle row seats, they sit as close to the front ones as possible.

Anybody who's tried to get their bicycle inside a car knows that convincing the handlebar to go through the rear hatch gap is the most difficult part of the job and the episode we have here is no exception to this rule.

This Tesla Model X has been gifted with a mat, so while the handlebar part remains tricky, there's no need to worry about scratching the floor - given all the rather sharp edges of the bike, this could be one serious problem during such a loading operation.

Speaking of which, the compartment under the luggage space floor, which is the size of a supercar's boot, is obviously available, so you can put your stuff their without worrying about how it might... interfere with the transported bike.

Press the "play" button below and you'll be treated with a two-minute clip - just long enough to sort this hauling matter out.
