The Pedestrian Warning System (if equipped) causes
Model X to emit sound when driving below 19 mph (32
km/h) or while driving in reverse. Electric vehicles
operate quietly and this sound helps to alert
pedestrians of your oncoming vehicle. The sound, which
activates whenever
Model X is shifted out of Park, gets
louder as speed increases.
NOTE: The Pedestrian Warning System is not available
in vehicles manufactured prior to September 1, 2020.
WARNING: If sound cannot be heard, pedestrians
may not be aware of your oncoming vehicle,
which may increase the likelihood of a collision
resulting in serious injury or death. If the
Pedestrian Warning System is not operating,
immediately contact Tesla.
