XYZ Racing Super Sport Coilovers — Tesla MODEL S Plaid + (4WD) 2021-2026

A Model S Plaid is not a typical coilover candidate. At around 2.1 tonnes with the battery pack slung low in the floor, it carries more mass than most performance saloons but also a lower centre of gravity than almost anything else on the road – and tri-motor launches load the chassis instantly rather than building through a rev range. XYZ Racing’s Super Sport coilover is built to control that mass without dulling the low-CG advantage the platform already has.

For fast-road driving and the occasional weekend track session, that means damping that can absorb the car’s weight transfer under hard regenerative braking and instant torque application, while still letting the chassis feel composed through direction changes. This is the Super Sport spec for owners who want more precision than the standard air suspension offers without moving into a full race setup.

What this coilover does for your 2021-2026 Tesla MODEL S Plaid + (4WD)

The 36-way damping adjustment lets you tune compression and rebound separately for a car whose weight distribution and unsprung mass differ significantly from a combustion Model S or any ICE performance sedan of similar size. Set it firmer and you get better control of squat under Plaid-spec launches and dive under heavy regen braking; back it off and the ride stays composed on UK B-roads and motorway expansion joints. Adjustable ride height means you can drop the car for a lower roll centre and a tighter stance, or hold it higher to protect the front splitter and battery underside on speed bumps and driveway ramps. Because the kit is matched to this specific 2021-2026 Plaid + (4WD) platform, spring rates are chosen with the car’s actual kerb weight in mind rather than a generic saloon estimate, so the ride doesn’t turn harsh just to compensate for the extra mass.

About the Super Sport coilover

The Super Sport line is built around eliminating the harshness that a heavier, stiffer setup usually introduces on rough UK surfaces – the 36-way damping adjustment is there specifically so bumps and broken tarmac don’t translate straight into the cabin the way a fixed-rate spring would. Ride height is independently adjustable, so the car can be set to suit a wide range of road conditions rather than locked to one compromise. Construction follows XYZ Racing’s usual monotube damper format, chosen for consistent response as the damper works through repeated inputs rather than fading over a session. It’s positioned as a dual-purpose spec: capable enough for a weekend track outing, but tuned so the same car is still usable as a daily driver during the week – relevant for a Plaid, given how many owners use theirs for both.

Fitment for the Tesla MODEL S Plaid + (4WD) (2021-2026)

This kit is built for the Tesla MODEL S Plaid + (4WD), chassis code TE05, covering the 2021-2026 model years. Fitment accounts for the tri-motor AWD layout and the battery-in-floor packaging specific to this generation of Model S, so confirm your build matches the Plaid + (4WD) variant before ordering.
