Tesla Model 3 Luxury Suspension Kit
In 2017, UP achieved a groundbreaking milestone by developing the world’s first coilover suspension kit for Tesla vehicles, marking the launch of our exclusive “Pro Coilover” suspension series, which prioritizes uncompromised quality without budget constraints. Over the subsequent years, Unplugged Performance’s monotube coilovers emerged as the preferred choice for both high-speed Tesla race cars and daily drivers seeking top-notch comfort. In contrast to the commonly used, cost-effective twin-tube design shocks in the Tesla aftermarket coilovers, Unplugged Performance has invested years of research and development to introduce our more affordable Luxury Suspension Kit twin-tube series. This achievement leverages economies of scale and incorporates the highly regarded Unplugged Performance Dual Rate Linear Spring technology. The outcome is a sophisticated suspension kit that offers a degree of adjustability while significantly enhancing the comfort of your Tesla Model 3.
Tuned specifically for the Model 3. Our Luxury Suspension shocks have been meticulously engineered and fine-tuned exclusively for the Tesla Model 3. This involves precise considerations such as weight distribution, balance, valving, and stroke length to optimize comfort. These twin-tube shocks feature an extended stroke and innovative internal hydraulic bump stop technology, resulting in smoother and more comfortable actuation with a longer stroke, reducing harshness during full compression. The extended stroke range ensures maximum comfort over uneven and rough road surfaces. By tuning for calmer rebound without high valve rates, we enhance stability at higher speeds.
Adjustable damping for improved comfort. The Luxury Suspension Kit offers adjustable damping, allowing you to tailor the degree of comfort to your preferences. While our recommended preset default damping setting offers a perfect blend of comfort and stability, those seeking specific adjustments can easily follow our quick-reference guide and make simple adjustments to the shocks utilizing the knob at the top of the piston shaft before installation.
Our recommended damper setting for most comfort is a maximum of 16 clicks to maintain safe drivability on the road. Any softer can lead to premature shock failure. The starting point should be full clockwise. Adjusting to full clockwise both sets the shock at the stiffest setting, but more importantly, it resets the shims internally. The stiffest setting is full clockwise, and the softest setting is 16 clicks counterclockwise from full stiff. Note that adjustments outside of this range may cause damage to the shock internals and will void your product warranty.
Optional Dual-Rate Linear Lowering Springs offer more comfort and more performance. Our Dual-Rate Linear Lowering Spring technology offers two distinct spring rates within a single spring. The initial rate, approximately 25% softer, enhances comfort during everyday driving, absorbing bumps and potholes with ease. When the suspension compresses further, such as during spirited driving, the second spring rate engages, reducing body roll, improving handling, and enhancing grip. This dual-rate design ensures comfort during daily use and a sportier feel when desired.
Offered in three ride height options (if Lowering Springs are selected). The Luxury Suspension Kit provides versatility with three ride height options: Mild (0.7” drop), Moderate (1.5” drop), and Low (2” drop). Note that specific applications may yield height variances of up to 0.25 inches.
Lowering is proven to reduce drag and increase efficiency. Given the Model 3’s flat-bottom underside, lowering the vehicle increases the air-flow velocity beneath the car reducing air pressure, and as a result, reduces drag which is the catalyst for the efficiency. The cleaner air beneath a lowered Model 3 can also clean the air at the rear end which contributes to the efficiency improvements.
World-class quality, reliability and maintenance-free. The Luxury Suspension Kit is engineered for exceptional quality, reliability, and long-term performance. It boasts up to 1.5 times the rigidity of load handling and reliability compared to the factory shocks. This suspension kit promises an extended service life, offering a maintenance-free experience for your Tesla Model 3.
Introducing affordable comfort. Our primary objective with the Luxury Suspension Kit was to make the benefits of comfort accessible to more Model 3 owners by ensuring affordability. By focusing solely on essential design elements, optimizing materials, and leveraging economies of scale, we deliver a cost-effective solution without compromising quality. No frills, no flashy aesthetics—just pure comfort, durability, and performance.
The end result is a suspension package that surpasses stock comfort, offers some adjustability akin to a full coilover suspension, all at a fraction of the cost.

Luxury Suspension Kit or Luxury Pro coilovers?
The kit is the budget-conscious path to comfort, with twin-tube shocks and your choice of fixed drop heights. The Luxury Pro coilover kit is the step up: a monotube design, ride height adjustable anywhere from stock to a 2-inch drop, and 32-way damping you can change after installation. Same comfort mission, more control, higher price. If you like to tinker, buy the coilover. Buyers comparing the full comfort lineup should also see the Luxury Comfort+ suspension upgrade.
What ride height options does the Luxury Suspension Kit offer?
Three fixed heights, and the comfort mission survives all of them. Mild, a 0.7-inch drop, keeps geometry closest to stock. Moderate, at 1.5 inches, sits in the middle. Low, at 2 inches, leans toward stance. Specific applications can vary by up to 0.25 inches. Every option uses the dual rate spring design, so the drop does not come at comfort’s expense. If you want variable height instead of a fixed choice, that is Luxury Pro coilover territory.
Is this kit only about comfort, or does handling improve too?
Comfort leads, but handling comes along. The dual rate springs add a firmer secondary rate that engages when the suspension compresses hard, trimming body roll during spirited moments, and the shocks offer up to 1.5 times the load rigidity of the factory units. Drivers who rank cornering above cushioning should look at our Sport Suspension Kit, which flips the same recipe toward handling.
How can I make my Tesla Model 3 ride smoother?
Replace the factory dampers with comfort-tuned shocks and softer initial-rate springs. Our Luxury Suspension Kit uses twin-tube shocks with an extended stroke and internal hydraulic bump stops, so large hits compress smoothly instead of crashing through. Paired with the optional Dual Rate Linear lowering springs, whose first rate is roughly 25 percent softer than stock, the Model 3 glides over broken pavement it used to transmit straight into the cabin.
What makes these shocks more comfortable than the stock Model 3 dampers?
Two design choices. The elongated stroke gives the damper more travel to absorb big bumps and expansion joints before reaching its limits, and the internal hydraulic bump stop cushions full compression rather than banging into a hard stop. We also tuned calmer rebound rates, which adds high-speed stability without resorting to stiff valving. The result rides noticeably softer than stock while staying controlled.
