Tesla's next car was spotted on the highway

Update: Tesla has confirmed to Business Insider that the car in the video is indeed a "beta" version of the Model X.

Some drivers got a surprise treat last week when they spotted Tesla's next car, the all-electric Model X SUV, while driving along the highway in Palo Alto, California. They managed to snap a quick 20-second video while speeding by the vehicle, but you can get a pretty clear look at the car in action.

Though the design looks unfinished, you can clearly see the company's name embossed on the trunk of the car, and the front of the SUV also matches Tesla's signature sleek look. It also looks exactly like the pre-production model we saw at the Los Angeles Auto Show late last year:

The Model X will be unveiled later this year, and the first deliveries will also begin around that time, in the third quarter. But, since the company is reportedly running behind schedule, Tesla will fill existing reservations first; anyone who reserves a Model X right now will have to wait until early 2016 for delivery.
