Tesla’s Cybertruck now offers a limited selection of aftermarket modification packages transforming the vehicle into an electric-powered armoured tank, suitable for military use or providing enhanced protection for security-conscious individuals.
Unveiled by Unplugged Efficiency, a renowned Tesla tuning expert, is a revolutionary Cybertruck transformed into a high-performance police patrol vehicle.
The corporation has partnered with Archimedes Protection Services to develop a futuristic prototype of the Tesla Cybertruck.
Archimedes Protection and Unplugged Efficiency have collaborated to introduce STING, a pioneering series of up-armored, genset-powered Tesla Cybertruck configurations tailored for discerning individuals seeking unparalleled combinations of efficiency, safety, and self-sufficiency in their off-grid adventures. Designed to excel in diverse settings, from authoritative to civilian applications, STING is engineered to withstand the most challenging environments, delivering unparalleled performance for individuals requiring readiness at a moment’s notice.
The Sting comes equipped with three distinct upgrade paths, offering a range of enhancements to suit diverse playstyles.
The Cybertruck, equipped with UP’s previously announced Up Invincible off-road package, features a genset installed in the front trunk (frunk) that can output up to 125 kilowatts of power.
This add-on primarily serves as a versatile extension device for the electric pickup truck’s range.
The Protector model offers ballistic protection capable of shielding against rounds up to 7.62 millimeters in diameter.
Despite Tesla’s claim that the Cybertruck is “bulletproof”, this assertion only holds true for specific areas of the vehicle where there is sufficient metal coverage, which does not extend to the glass panels.
Ultimately, the collaborative effort can introduce the Cybertruck STING APC, offering robust protection against projectiles up to 14.5mm caliber and a hardened plate designed to withstand explosive improvised devices (EIDs) and mines.
While upholding warnings suggest that, depending on the jurisdiction, the subsequent two modifications might not be sanctioned for navigating public thoroughfares.
Although there is no specific mention of pricing, both companies indicate a willingness to negotiate with governments or private individuals for promotional opportunities.
