- Tesla's new "Plaid Track Package" promises a top speed of 200 mph and includes upgrades to improve speed, handling, and braking on the racetrack
- It's unclear how much improvement to the overall driving experience the new package will provide
- The Plaid Track Package is a pricey upgrade at $20,000, which may limit its appeal to a niche market of performance enthusiasts
Tesla has recently announced the new "Plaid Track Package" for its Model S sedan, which is said to boost the car's top speed to 200 mph and offer impressive performance enhancements on the racetrack.

According to Tesla's official website, the Plaid Track Package includes several upgrades that aim to improve the Model S' speed, handling, and braking capabilities. These upcoming upgrades include a new heat pump, an upgraded carbon-sleeved rotor motor, and higher-performing brakes. The package also includes a new rear spoiler and diffuser, which are designed to improve aerodynamics and increase downforce.

Coming in June 2023, the Plaid Track Package's most notable feature is its claimed ability to achieve a top speed of 200 mph. While this is an impressive feat, it's worth noting that the Model S Plaid, even without the package, already has a top speed of 162 mph. Therefore, it remains to be seen how significant this performance increase will be for the average driver.
A carbon ceramic brake kit package is also available as an option, which will cost you $15,000. Alternatively, you can opt for the brake kit and a performance-optimized wheel and tire package for $20,000. However, if you only want to upgrade your vehicle's wheels and tires, you can do so for $6,000
