The Tesla Model S and the Model X are two of the most desirable electric vehicles currently for sale.
Both of these cars are well-appointed, expensive, and go very fast.
But nothing is ever enough, so how can you make both of these vehicles even more ludicrous?

Well, you’ll have to go Plaid.
Tesla’s Plaid upgrade offers way more power than the vanilla Model S and Model X.
For the money, your family sedan (or SUV) will be transformed into an all-out acceleration beast.

How Fast Do the Regular Tesla Model X and Model S EVs Go?
The regular Model S, along with the Model X, are already plenty fast.
This makes the stately Model S family sedan stray into supercar territory.

In terms of range, the regular Model S offers up to 405 miles.
The biggest thing that the Plaid upgrade nets the buyer is the addition of a third electric motor.
The dual-motor setup on the base cars is already plenty powerful and lends the vehicles immense grip via AWD.

No other vehicle will touch the Model S Plaid’s acceleration from a standstill.
Of course, the quarter mile is also eclipsed in record fashion.
The Model S Plaid can complete the quarter-mile run in nine seconds, which is bonkers.
But that’s what makes it one ofthe best EV SUVs for sale.
The mythical number that makes all these crazy stats possible is the 1,020 hp powering these two insane vehicles.
Instead, they feature reliable electric powertrains.
Is the Plaid Upgrade Worth It?
The Plaid upgrade is absolutely worth the money.
The Model X is pricier than the Model S, to begin with.
The Plaid upgrade is a must-have if you’re getting the Model X.
Ultimately, the decision comes down to the buyer.
