Tesla Model S Plaid In order to launch a powerful attack on fuel vehicles. Electric vehicle specifications must be verified before they can be trusted by consumers. Unlike its Tesla predecessors, the Model S Plaid is even designed to handle the rigors of track driving, making it a four-door all-electric monster that can take on the McLaren Senna and McLaren on the track Super sports cars such as the Wheel P1 are no longer eye-catching. The Model S Plaid only costs RMB 840,000, while the McLaren P1 costs as much as RMB 39,124,000.
But like the rest of Tesla’s products, the Model S Plaid has room for improvement. For example, its range could be better than the current 390 miles per charge, and its setup could be better suited to closed-road driving. EV tuning shop Unplugged Performance has already hinted at what the Model S Plaid can do when set up for the track, but based on some new looks at the company's parts catalog, Tesla itself appears to be planning to offer something that can help the vehicle reach its full potential on the track.
A look at Tesla's current Model S parts catalog shows the company listing two new wheels, suggesting a dedicated "Track Package" may be coming to the flagship performance sedan. Specifically, the new parts appear to be zero-gravity wheels with 285 front/305 wide rear tires. According to images shared by EV Group The Kilowatts, the wheel was spotted on a Model S Plaid prototype in Laguna Seca.
Electric car enthusiasts will remember that Tesla's zero-gravity wheels used to be released as part of a dedicated track kit. Last March, Tesla released a new Track Package for the Model 3 Performance, and one of its key upgrades was its racing-focused wheels and tires, including Zero Gravity Performance Wheels and 245/35ZR20 XL Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires. With that in mind, it seems likely that the Model S Plaid's apparent track package will also be paired with Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires.
The sheer size of the wheels and tires in the Model S Plaid's Track Package shows that Tesla wants to give its customers a truly racing-like experience. After all, the Model S Plaid’s large tires at the front and rear allow the vehicle to handle the twists and turns of the track very well. Combined with the flagship sedan's carbon fiber-wrapped electric motor, the Model S Plaid could very well be the next true track monster.
Oh hello... If someone says there is no active aero, that must mean someone does have active aero. Restricted section.

But that’s not all. As Model 3 owner and detailer @BLKMDL3 observed, the Tesla parts catalog also includes a rather interesting review of the new Model S liftgate, stating that the part has "no active aerodynamics." Whether this indicates that the Model S Plaid tailgate with active aerodynamics will appear in the future is open to question. However, a Model S with an active rear spoiler has been spotted in the past in a vehicle widely believed to be a Model S Plaid+ prototype.
