$1,795.00 - $2,795.00 $1,199.99 - $2,795.00
Performance can be found in many places. We’ve dedicated our company’s purpose towards extracting maximum performance from every Tesla. As we evaluated the usability of the new Model S & X we recognized that both vehicles are highly capable at towing and deserved an optimized ground up solution. We set our focus on creating a performance orientated tow package that exceeds anything else in the market. In doing so we took a blank page fresh approach towards engineering a solution that would be immensely strong, half of the weight, and easily bolted on without any modification or issues with factory rear bumpers. We also managed to make it modular so that it doubles as a racing parachute kit when adding our optional parachute option. Because when you have a 1000+hp Hypercar monster of a daily driver why not have parachute capabilities!
Designed with extensive FEA testing followed by real-world validation. These tow hitch for the 2021 and up Tesla Model X and Tesla Model S platforms allow you to pull heavy with minimum weight.
- Standard trailer hitch attachment which allows the bumper cover to be maintained
- Engineered for silent operation with any trailer attachment
- Designed and manufactured in California
- Black all-weather coating for durability
- Weight-optimized rugged steel construction
- Lifetime warranty
- Require for use of the Unplugged Performance Racing Parachute Kit
- 10% weight savings versus Tesla 2021+ hitch, 50% weight savings versus pre-2021 Tesla hitch

How does this compare to just using a bumper-mounted bike rack?
A clamp-on bumper rack risks marring paint and offers no towing capacity. A proper 5000lb receiver hitch gives you a rated, bolt-on mounting point for trailers and hitch-mounted racks or carriers, plus the parachute-mount option. This kit adds all of that while saving 10 to 50% of the weight of Tesla’s own hitches and keeping the factory bumper cover, so it is the stronger and more versatile solution.
Does installing this tow hitch void my Tesla warranty?
Bolting on an aftermarket hitch does not automatically void your Tesla warranty. Under the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, Tesla would need to prove the hitch caused a specific failure to deny that claim, and this kit installs without cutting or altering the factory structure. Unplugged Performance also stands behind the hitch itself with a lifetime warranty, which speaks to how it is engineered and built.
Do I need professional installation for the tow hitch?
It is engineered to bolt on without modification or bumper issues, so it is a manageable install for a capable owner with proper tools and a way to lift the car. If you would rather have it done, Unplugged Performance can install it at our Hawthorne shop, or an authorized installer can fit it. Because it is a structural, load-bearing part, correct torque and mounting matter, so professional installation is a safe choice.
Where is this hitch made and how durable is it?
It is designed and manufactured in California from weight-optimized rugged steel, and it carries a black all-weather coating to resist corrosion. Durability was proven through extensive FEA testing and real-world validation, and Unplugged Performance backs it with a lifetime warranty. That is a strong signal of confidence in a part that has to hold up to structural towing loads over the life of the vehicle.
Does this tow hitch fit both the Model S and the Model X?
Yes, it is built for the 2021 and up Model S and Model X platforms. It bolts on without any modification and without issues with the factory rear bumpers, and the bumper cover stays in place because it uses a standard trailer hitch attachment. Adding a bike rack to a Plaid or towing behind a Model X, the same weight-optimized hitch covers both cars.
