With the rear-facing seats, it does. Although uncomfortably. You're better off with the Model X for that many.

Yes, let's compare a value car with a luxury car. Brilliant. How much does a BMX X6 or a Mercedes AMG GLE cost?
Here's a hint: https://www.mbusa.com/mercedes/vehicles/model/class-GLE/model-GLE63W4S https://www.mbusa.com/mercedes/vehicles/model/class-GLE/mode...
After you subtract government incentives and fuel savings, the costs are identical. That's why Tesla actually sells cars.
- davedx 8y agoYep. If I get a Model X I will want to do long trips with the kids in it. Probably including to the south of France at some point. I can't imagine how travel sick they'd get in the Model S's rear sets, and don't want to :) For us the X is really the only full electric option.
- linsomniac 8y agoI kind of regret not getting a Model X, but also kind of not... We have two kids and a dog, and have to board the dog now that she's big. The Model S with the 4 of us though, works just fine for 2,400 mile each way trips. The one thing I really worry about in the Model X is the maintenance of the falcon wing doors.
