![]() ![]() The Pikes Plaid has double the power and according to a quote from the MotorTrend report, Tesla has also improved the battery pack and cooling systems so that it has consistent performance irrespective of battery charge levels. After a miraculous overnight repair job, they managed to clock the second-fastest time in the exhibition class. Unplugged Performance made a similar attempt last year with a tuned Model 3 (pictured above) but suffered a slight mishap in a trial run when the car went off. For the Pikes Peak IHC, the top speed won’t be an issue and the electric powertrain’s acceleration performance should be plenty. The stock version of the Tesla Model S Plaid is capable of a top speed of 262kph but a future update with the right tyres should allow it to hit 322kph. MotorTrend reported that Unplugged Performance will add some more race-spec mods such as high-performance brake pads, adjustable rear camber arms and fully adjustable upper control arms. At the wheel was veteran race and development driver, Randy Pobst who will also be the one making the Pikes Peak record attempt. ![]() In the few laps it did do at the event, the Pikes Plaid racecar smashed past the likes of the McLaren Senna and made a Porsche Cayman Clubsport look like it was standing still. AEruVhR2o8- UNPLUGGED PERFORMANCE June 15, 2021 That’s why we did the Plaid.” plaid alien technology was unleashed upon McLaren Senna, McLaren P1 and Porsche 991 GT3 RS. And because there is no point in spending this kind of money without anybody knowing, Unplugged Performance offer the carbon wheels for $14,995.“Sustainable energy cars can be the fastest cars, the safest cars, the most kick ass cars in every way. This can be combined with a lowering module for the air suspension, for an additional $495. The kit consists of brake discs, calipers, and steel braided lines and costs $8,995.Ĭornering is just as important as braking, so a rear axle stabilizer is an easy decision, especially for a measly $395. The fastest production car in the world needs this set in order to stop reliably regardless of the situation. It is true that electric cars use regenerative braking mostly, but this is not the case with a performance sedan. In case you opted for parts and are serious about performance, your first stop is the carbon-ceramic brake set for the front axle. This sells under the name of Model S-Apex, and includes, beyond chassis and aerodynamics, a wide body kit to impress your friends and neighbors. Or for a complete car, although that will set you back $249,995, almost twice the price of the original model. So, if you want your Tesla Model S Plaid to be even wilder than it already is, this is the place to look for parts to improve its performance. Yet, somehow, there is always someone who needs more power, or more composed dynamics, and that’s we have so many companies trying to push the boundaries of sportiness, even for accomplished sports cars.įor Tesla, the go-to tuner is Unplugged Performance, the company that is behind Tesla’s success at Pikes Peak this year. The Model S Plaid is also no stranger from difficult racing circuits, like Nürburgring, an achievement that not many cars can count in their favor. The three high-performance electric motors can deliver 1,020 HP in total, enough to propel the electric cannonball on wheels to a maximum speed of 200 mph (322 kph). For $123,740, you buy a car that can do the 0-60 mph (97 kph) in 1.99 seconds, easily the quickest accelerating car in production today. The Tesla Model S Plaid is, for now, the top-of-the-range model in Tesla’s lineup. ![]()
