The remarkable Tesla Cybertruck, known for its brutalist aesthetics and cutting-edge technology, has now been transformed into a police cruiser. This futuristic marvel, decked out with all the necessary police equipment, seems like it's straight out of a sci-fi movie. A video surfaced on social media showcasing an impressive police version of the Cybertruck, thanks to the ingenuity of Tesla tuner Unplugged Performance.
A Cybertruck Ready for Patrol
The video, shared by Unplugged Performance, exhibits the Cybertruck outfitted with their UP.Fit police kit. Emergency lights are strategically placed on the roof and sides, perfectly complementing the vehicle's design. The Cybertruck's sinister and domineering presence is enhanced by a custom wrap that screams authority. According to Unplugged Performance, the police Cybertruck is ready for patrol duties – an upgrade we can envision patrolling the streets from here to Mars.

Advantages for Modern Law Enforcement
The Cybertruck offers numerous advantages for law enforcement use. With its significant size, it can carry a substantial amount of equipment. Additionally, its spacious cabin allows for the integration of custom tools essential for police work. Modifying the second-row seats to accommodate detainees is likely a straightforward task, making it an exceedingly versatile vehicle.
The online Tesla community is already buzzing with positive reactions. Members on social media and forums, such as the Cybertruck Owners Club, are excited about the potential of the Cybertruck as a police cruiser. Some suggest that with the addition of a push bumper, the Cybertruck would appear even more formidable. One thing is certain – no one would want to encounter a Cybertruck police cruiser attempting a pit maneuver on them.

Comparisons to the Tesla Model Y Police Kit
Unplugged Performance isn’t new to transforming Teslas for police use. Their UP.Fit line also includes a kit for the Model Y, which costs approximately $90,000. Interestingly, the Model Y police vehicle offers significant savings for police departments – estimated at around $27,012 over five years compared to a Ford Police Interceptor utility hybrid. However, despite the Model Y's efficiency and capability, the Cybertruck’s sheer presence takes it several notches higher.
