Tesla Model Y Luxury Suspension Kit

Your Model Y Suspension Was Built to a Budget. This Kit Was Built to a Standard.

The Tesla Model Y has become one of the best-selling vehicles in the world, and the used market is now flooded with first-generation examples that represent incredible value for new owners. But whether your Model Y is fresh off the lot or has tens of thousands of miles on the odometer, there is one area where every owner eventually arrives at the same conclusion: the factory suspension leaves something on the table. Tesla engineered the stock dampers and springs to hit a price point and satisfy the widest possible range of buyers. The result is a ride that can feel unsettled over broken pavement, floaty at highway speeds, and increasingly loose as the original shocks wear in over time. For a vehicle that gets so much right, the suspension is the most obvious place where a targeted upgrade transforms the entire driving experience.

Unplugged Performance’s Luxury Suspension Kit was designed specifically for Model Y owners who want a better ride, not a harsher one.

Twin-Tube Dampers That Prioritize Comfort and Control

The foundation of the kit is a set of four twin-tube adjustable shocks, each featuring advanced internal hydraulic bump stop technology and a longer stroke than the factory units. That extended stroke gives the damper more room to absorb large impacts like potholes, expansion joints, and broken pavement before reaching full compression, dramatically reducing the jarring hits that the stock suspension transmits straight into the cabin. With 20 available damping settings, you can tune the ride balance anywhere from plush daily comfort to a firmer, more composed feel for spirited driving.

*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.

Calmer rebound valving is a key part of the engineering. Rather than using high valve rates that create a stiff, choppy ride on uneven surfaces, the Luxury shocks are tuned for smooth, controlled rebound that keeps the body settled and the tires planted. The difference is immediately noticeable at highway speeds, where the vehicle tracks straighter and feels more stable than it ever did on the original suspension.

Dual Rate Linear Lowering Springs That Restore and Improve

For owners who want to pair the new dampers with a fresh set of springs, the optional Dual Rate Linear lowering springs complete the transformation. Each spring incorporates two distinct rates within a single unit. The initial rate is approximately 25% softer than factory, giving the car a more supple, absorbent character over everyday road imperfections. When the suspension compresses further during cornering, braking, or higher-speed driving, a firmer secondary rate engages to resist body roll and keep the chassis flat and predictable.

This dual-rate design is especially valuable for first-generation Model Y owners whose original springs have settled or softened with age. Rather than simply replacing worn parts with the same factory components, the Luxury springs restore ride height to a controlled, intentional position while delivering better ride quality than the car had when it was new. Non-Performance models can choose between a 1-inch Mild drop and a 1.5-inch Moderate drop, while Performance models get a 0.25-inch Mild or 0.75-inch Moderate option that accounts for their already-lower factory ride height. Lowering the Model Y also reduces aerodynamic drag and lowers the center of gravity, contributing to both improved efficiency and a more planted, confident feel through every turn.

The Right Upgrade for New Owners and Long-Time Owners Alike

Whether you just picked up a pre-owned Model Y and want to make it feel like the vehicle it should have been from the factory, or you have owned yours since day one and the original suspension has started to show its age, this kit delivers the same outcome: a smoother, quieter, more refined ride with better body control and a stance that matches. Installation is straightforward with a professional alignment required afterward, and every component is designed for maintenance-free, long-life operation.

Compatible with all 2020 through 2026+ Tesla Model Y variants, including Dual Motor Performance, Dual Motor Long Range, and Rear-Wheel Drive Standard Range.
