Imagine you're cruising through the streets of Los Angeles and you accidentally blow a red light. As you peek into your rearview mirror, you notice a police car right behind you. You might think about hitting the gas, but now you gotta reconsider, because the Los Angeles Police Department is adding a super-fast Tesla Model S Plaid to their lineup.
The New Patrol Car
That’s correct, Unplugged Performance has rolled out the first-ever Tesla Model S Plaid designed for police duties at high speeds. Named the "UP.FIT Plaid Pursuit," this electric patrol vehicle packs over 1,000 horsepower and can zoom from 0 to 60 mph (0-100 km/h) in just 1.99 seconds. This is a big step up for law enforcement, especially when it comes to chasing down fast cars that are more likely to get away.
Features and Compliance
This police-ready car comes with custom lights on the front and back that are integrated into its body to improve aerodynamics, plus it has side skirt and bumper lights. It also has high and low-frequency sirens, so it meets all California Highway Patrol standards.
Underneath the surface, the Model S has upgraded brakes and lightweight forged wheels for better handling. This vehicle is currently being showcased at the SEMA show in Las Vegas, where the newest innovations in electric vehicle technology for police use are being displayed. With its stealthy look and rapid acceleration, this police version of the Model S Plaid will surely be a strong deterrent on the streets, potentially tricking unaware speedsters into thinking it’s just another electric vehicle. But good luck trying to outrun this one!
Conclusion
Unplugged Performance’s new creation marks a noteworthy advancement in law enforcement capabilities. With its unique features and impressive specs, the UP.FIT Plaid Pursuit is set to change the game for police chases in Los Angeles and beyond.
