Description DESCRIPTION
Tesla Model Y Luxury Suspension Kit
In 2017 UP developed the world’s first Tesla coilover suspension kit launching a focus on happiness with our cost-no-object monotube “Pro Coilover” suspension series. In the years that followed, Unplugged Performance monotube coilovers became the go-to choice for both the fastest Tesla race cars as well as the most comfortable daily drivers. Lower cost twin tube design shocks are commonly used in the Tesla aftermarket coilovers due to cost advantages. After years of development, Unplugged Performance now offers a new level of affordability with our Luxury Suspension Kit twin tube series by focusing on economies of scale and by leveraging highly acclaimed Unplugged Performance Dual Rate Linear Spring technology. The result is a highly developed suspension kit that offers some adjustability while providing vastly more comfort for your Tesla Model Y.
Tuned specifically for the Model Y. The Luxury Suspension shocks were designed and developed specifically for the Model Y factoring in weight, balance, valving and stroke length for optimized comfort. These twin-tube shocks offer a longer stroke and include advanced internal hydraulic bump stop technology that offers softer, longer stroke actuation which reduces harshness at full stroke. The elongated stroke range further ensures maximum comfort over uneven and rough road surfaces. Tuning calmer rebound without high valve rates results in an increase in stability at higher speeds.
Adjustable damping for improved comfort. The degree of comfort that is desired can be selected and adjusted with the Luxury Suspension Kit. We recommend utilizing the preset default damping setting which is optimized for a perfect balance of comfort and stability. However, should you desire a specific setting for your application you can follow the quick-reference guide below and make simple adjustments to the shocks by turning the knobs at the top prior to install.
Optional Dual-Rate Linear Lowering Springs offer more comfort and more performance. Unplugged Performance Dual-Rate Linear Lowering Spring technology offers two distinct spring rates in one spring. The first spring rate is about 25% softer offering more comfort in everyday driving over bumps and potholes. When the suspension is further compressed (in spirited driving conditions) the second spring rate engages for reduced body roll, and improved handling, and more grip. The result is more comfort for everyday driving, AND more sport when you want to engage in more spirited driving.
Offered in two ride height options (if Lowering Springs are selected). An additional benefit of the Dual-Rate Linear Lowering Springs is that we offer two height options for the Model Y: Mild, and Moderate. The “Mild” option lowers non-Performance models by about 1″, and Performance models by around .25″. Moderate springs takes it a step further lowering the vehicle around 1.5 inches for non Performance models and .75″ for Performance models. Note: different applications can net different results with heights varying up to .25 inches.
Lowering is proven to reduce drag and increase efficiency. By lowering the Tesla Model Y, because it is a flat-bottom vehicle, the air can move beneath the car at a higher velocity which reduces the air pressure present, and as a result, reduces drag which is the catalyst for the efficiency. The cleaner air beneath a lowered Model Y 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 built to last. It is up to 1.5 times more rigid than factory shocks, in terms of long-term reliability and load handling. Expect an extended life from this suspension kit requiring a maintenance-free, highly ownership of your Tesla Model Y.
Introducing affordable comfort. One of the most important objectives for the Luxury Suspension kit was to allow more Model Y owners to achieve their goals of enjoying their Model Ys in comfort, meaning it had to be affordable. By focusing only on what is needed, and through economies of scale, we are able to offer a solution for those seeking one. By concentrating on the narrow range of what this product needs to be and putting all design and materials resources to perform optimally, we are able to offer this excellent product for lower costs. No sacrifices, no pretty colors or shiny parts. Just straight comfort, durability, and performance.
The net result is a suspension package that offers more comfort than stock, and some of the adjustability of a full coilover suspension, yet at a fraction of the cost.
Parts Included in the Luxury Suspension Kit
(2) Front Unplugged Performance Luxury Adjustable Shocks
(2) Rear Unplugged Performance Luxury Adjustable Shocks
Optional: (2) Front Unplugged Performance Dual Rate Linear Lowering Springs (Mild or Moderate)
Optional: (2) Rear Unplugged Performance Dual Rate Linear Lowering Springs (Mild or Moderate)
Product Pairing Recommendations:
- Rear Camber Arms – UP Billet Adjustable Rear Camber Arms allow you to get the full life out of your tires. From the factory, the Tesla Model Y is prone to excessive rear inner tire wear requiring premature tire replacement, or potential safety risks as the suspension does not allow for rear camber adjustment. We recommend this to ALL Model Y owners and especially those doing other suspension upgrades as they are an easy install “while you’re in there.” Additionally, lowering the vehicle can cause additional negative camber making rear camber arms a highly recommended add-on to the UP Luxury Suspension Kit.

Bought the shock and it works great. Definitely recommend for Model Y owners on limited budget.

I have a Tesla Model 3 LR but the rep at UP accidentally ordered the MY listing instead which is the same since both M3 and MY share most parts including struts. Purchased as the roads in DC just aren’t very pleasant and combined with Tesla’s stock struts, it’s pretty horrendous.
Delivery took pretty long – I ordered them on Jan 24 and they were finally received by FedEx on 2/21. UP, do better with your delivery timelines! There were further exceptions as I only finally received them around 3/1 but that’s mostly FedEx’s fault.
Installed these last week and needless to say, it’s a night and day difference. There are 20 settings, thought they don’t recommend below 5 (softest), 8 is the default and they don’t recommend above 15 (firmest). I set mine to 6 and it is perfect. You still feel the bumps but the ride is much more refined. I confirmed this by riding on all the same roads I despise here. The installation cost $1000 in DC at Capitol Hill Auto, likely would be cheaper if you’re not in a metro area. Total cost was about $2500 to upgrade. Please don’t try and install them yourself unless you have experience – these usually require alignment as well after installation.
If this is your first time ordering struts, you’ll realize this is middle of the camp in terms of pricing but well worth it. PLUS, you can get lowering springs to improve efficiency.

My 2021 Model Y performance rode very harsh and bumpy. Like the suspension bottomed out on every pothole. I did the suspension upgrade and it’s a HUGE difference. My car rides great now. It handles the potholes no big deal now. I wish I had done this three years ago when I got the car. Sandy Monroe did a positive inspection of the unplugged performance store in Hawthorne, Ca. on YouTube— and I can see why he is fond of this company as so am I. Thanks guys for the great coilover luxury suspension upgrade. I am very very happy!
