In a groundbreaking move, the Irvine Police Department is set to deploy an upgraded Tesla Cybertruck police vehicle, provided by Unplugged Performance, enhancing their patrol capabilities.

Cost Efficiency of Tesla Vehicles for Police Use

The Irvine Police Department has made the announcement that Unplugged Performance would be providing the department with a Tesla Cybertruck police vehicle that has been upgraded, Electrek reports.

Vehicles manufactured by Tesla have gained popularity among law enforcement agencies all around the world, particularly in the United States.

They are discovering that Tesla vehicles, particularly the Model Y, are the ideal solution for their use cases. Not only do these vehicles meet their requirements flawlessly, but they also significantly reduce the expenses of fuel and maintenance, which are costly due to the fact that they are used so frequently as patrol vehicles.

Unplugged Performance: Leading the Way in Tesla Tuning

Unplugged Performance has established itself as the most reputable tuner for Tesla Motors vehicles. However, more recently, the firm developed its Up.Fit subsidiary with the intention of converting Tesla vehicles into police vehicles. Additionally, it is mostly known for the performance and aerodynamic modifications that it provides to Tesla vehicles.

In spite of the fact that they predominantly produce Model Ys, they have just lately introduced a Tesla Cybertruck police vehicle.

More than anything else, we noticed that this was most likely done for the sake of promotion. This is taking into consideration the fact that the Cybertruck starting price is presently $100,000 before any modifications are made to make it a police vehicle. The fact that it is not a very fiscally sensible police vehicle is a result of this.

We have, however, witnessed the Dubai Police Department purchasing one, although it was not from Up.Fit.

A Cybertruck is also going to be acquired by the Irvine Police Department, according to an announcement made recently:

According on the photograph, it appears that this one might be from the Up.Fit program offered by UP.
