A turnkey electric patrol vehicle engineered for safety, performance, and lower operating cost.
Every UP.FIT Patrol Model Y begins as a new Tesla Model Y, delivered by Tesla's Government Fleet team directly to our production facilities and transformed into a complete, duty-ready patrol vehicle — emergency lighting, siren, partition, console, weapon mounts, pursuit hardware, and wiring engineered specifically for Tesla's low-voltage architecture. One build. One point of accountability. Full Tesla warranty intact.
We replace the OEM center console with our custom-engineered, lowered center console — iterated across multiple model years of officer feedback. It's the single most-commented-on feature when officers sit in an UP.FIT vehicle for the first time.
Our prisoner partition is purpose-built for the Model Y platform, available as a single (half) or dual (full) cage. Most agencies choose the single cage — it keeps the behind-the-driver area usable for locked storage.
Wide rear-door access to the transport area, seatbelt hardware an officer can operate one-handed from outside the vehicle, and equipment placement refined across hundreds of deployed builds. Nothing on this vehicle is an afterthought — including the parts you touch a dozen times per shift.
Beneath the light bar, every UP.FIT Patrol Model Y is a rolling AI platform: eight cameras with 360-degree coverage around the vehicle, onboard neural-net compute, and Tesla Full Self-Driving (Supervised)§ capability. On shift today, that means active collision avoidance, supervised driver assistance that cuts fatigue on long patrols, and continuous multi-camera vision — situational awareness no legacy cruiser can match.
And it compounds. Tesla ships new capability over the air, so the autonomy stack your fleet carries keeps advancing for years after delivery — no retrofit, no repurchase. Today's deployment is your platform for the autonomous era of law enforcement.
Tesla's instant torque and low center of gravity already outrun and out-handle legacy patrol vehicles. Our pursuit package makes sure the braking system keeps up — engineered, track-tested, and validated far beyond factory heat tolerances by EVOC instructors from agencies across the country.
High-strength UP.FIT Forged aluminum wheels paired with pursuit-rated tires — built for curb strikes, high-speed maneuvering, and the daily abuse of patrol duty. The same wheels we deploy on patrol fleets nationwide, engineered specifically for the Model Y platform.
Long guns mount vertically against the partition between the front seats — locked, stable at pursuit speeds, and reachable without leaving the driver's seat. Provisions for up to three weapon mounts are integrated into the build, positioned around the console and MDT so nothing competes for space.
Your vehicle shows up patrol-ready: radio, MDT, and radar installed and validated, graphics applied, and every system tested before it leaves our facility. Tesla's Government Fleet team delivers the vehicles directly to us — one build, one timeline, one point of accountability.
The Tesla Model Y is among the safest vehicles ever tested — and our upfit work is engineered to preserve that. We never splice into airbag systems, structural elements, or active safety hardware. The vehicle that leaves our facility protects officers the same way the OEM vehicle does.
Electronics live in a dedicated cabinet — not scattered across the trunk — so every compartment stays available for gear. No bulky drawer system required.
Behind the rear seat — all electronics organized in one serviceable location.
Beneath the load floor, where a gas tank would be — plus two side wells.
Between the rear seat and the rear well for controlled, out-of-sight storage.
Additional sealed storage no gasoline patrol vehicle can offer.
With the single partition, remains usable for locked storage.
The front trunk is storage no gasoline patrol vehicle can offer — and departments put it to work. An AED, first-responder trauma kit, and fire extinguisher ride sealed, protected, and accessible in seconds from the front of the vehicle, without digging through the trunk at a critical moment.
Paired with a government lease ($1 buyout), fuel and maintenance savings carry the payments — in most cases the cash-flow lines never cross. We model it conservatively, with your local fuel prices and your actual duty cycles, using real-world data from deployed UP.FIT fleets.
Every Model Y trim is patrol-suitable and every one keeps its full Tesla battery & drive unit warranty. We'll help you match trim to mission.

RWD trims run about $2,000–$4,000 less than their AWD equivalents. Weighing Model Y against Model 3? We recommend Model Y for patrol every time — more interior height for the console and MDT, more hip room, larger trunk and frunk.
