Tesla Model S Plaid Gets Police Makeover from UP.FIT

The world’s fastest production car is getting ready to chase down bad guys. At SEMA’s opening day on Tuesday, Unplugged Performance revealed its latest police vehicle conversion – this time featuring Tesla’s Model S Plaid.

While Tesla vehicles have been joining police fleets across the country, this marks the first time the high-performance Model S Plaid has been specifically outfitted for law enforcement duty by UP.FIT, Unplugged Performance’s specialized division for police and fleet vehicles.

The choice of the Model S Plaid is notable given its impressive specs: 0-60 mph in just 1.99 seconds, a top speed of 200 mph, and 359 miles of range. The vehicle has set multiple world records, including an 8.56-second quarter-mile run achieved this past July.

This latest addition expands UP.FIT’s growing lineup of police-converted Teslas.

The company has already successfully deployed Model Y and Model 3 units to various U.S. police departments and recently introduced a police version of the Cybertruck, which law enforcement agencies are also adopting.

Beyond their police vehicle conversions, Unplugged Performance is well-known in racing circles, particularly for their work on Randy Pobst’s modified Model S Plaid “Dark Helmet,” which has competed multiple times in the prestigious Pike’s Peak International Hill Climb.
