Below is the current stage of my live blog of the Tesla Model X launch. To keep an eye on the updates as I publish them, head over to the EV Obsession article. (By the way, yes, Tesla is running 44 minutes late at the moment.)

Model X wings

Tesla Motors and CEO Elon Musk announced a little more than a week ago that a Tesla Model X unveiling event would take place at 7pm Pacific Time on September 29. That’s today if you’re in the US, or yesterday if you live in Europe like I do. Earlier today (going by California time, not my own), the time was changed from 7pm to 8pm. It’s now 8:21pm. There are plenty of tweets making the same joke/comment, but here’s one that captures the point well enough:

Typically, I don’t think Elon does it to be fashionable, but maybe that is the case tonight?

Anyway, I will be live blogging once this thing gets going. In particular, I’ll update the post with key facts, quotes, and pics when they catch my attention. At the bottom of the page is a Twitter stream for #ModelX, but that includes numerous useless tweets, so I’m trying to save you save time and frustration by curating them myself. Let’s get going!

Someone has enjoyed a sneak peek at the beast and part of the show:

Shortly… indeed. This is like when I tell my wife that I just need 5 minutes to finish an article, some editing, email, some forum discussion, etc.
