How to unlock the Upgrade Master achievement in Need for Speed Rivals - Definitive Guide

I'm really shocked no-one has already posted this method.

This method takes no time, no effort, and costs no money.

Ok, basically, play through the cop career as normal. Buy what techs you want, use the cars you want, pretend this achievement doesn't exist.

Now, when you get to chapter 5 you are FORCED to use one of three cars, pick the Ferrari Enzo.

This car has two upgrade abilities that come with it, both level 4. Just swap them around (Put EMP from left to right) and shockwave from right to left.

The achievement will unlock, costing you nothing, and taking a second of your time.

I bought all Pursuit Tech and all upgrades to my Koenigsegg One:1 and the achievement doesn't popped up.

After this I tried this solution and it's worked...

If you've already completed the cop career, simply count the chapters till you get to chapter 5 and pick an assignment you haven't done then use the above guide, bam, achievement.

This achievement can be unlocked by buying the all of the Pursuit Techs at the maximum level possible for your car.
(Buying just the 4 Techs on the first car will also net you the acheivement.)
(Thanks to Xonatron for confirming this.)

Pursuit Techs
Electrostatic Field (ESF)
Helicopter
Shock Ram
Roadblock
Spike Strips
EMP

Once all of these are upgraded to level 4 on a single car the achievement will unlock.

ALTERNATIVE METHOD!

You can also obtain the achievement by purchasing the NFS: Rivals Time Saver Pack for $9.99 to have every pursuit tech unlocked as soon as you obtain a new car. (The pack does more than just police pursuit tech but the details are not needed for this solution.)

So, you cannot just buy the four single-level techs on the first car to get it?

I don't think so. If you get it to work that way I will make changes to the solution.

My idea worked. I'll let you update your solution instead of making my own. To be clear I purchased all four tech available on the Mercedes-Benz C 63 AMG Coupe Black Series, which is the first car and the easiest to fully upgrade. Each of the four tech can only upgrade to one level.

You can also get it on the first mission of chapter 5 - Go Rogue. The game will force you to use a Ferrari Enzo with the techs already maxed out. I swapped the techs around and got it. I'm guessing could just uneqip one and equip it again.

Got the same thing here. Maybe level 1 is the maximum level for the few first cars.

Simple and easy. I made a video for Brazilian users.

I did with a Ford Shelby car and 230.000 Speed Points.

Not sure if this glitched but i had the ultimate cop pack dlc with my copy of the game giving a black Nissan gtr. After levelling up a bit i got it when choosing car.
Like i said it may have glitches as i only had level two gear none of which i had bought?

Incredibly simple, in the very first cop car you are locked to level 1 upgrades. It costs just under 100,000 to get all of them which shouldn't take you long at all to acquire (no further than Rank 5). Then just buy all the upgrades, equip any two, and the trophy is yours.

... And by just under 100, he means 75.000

There is another way too. So long as you have got 60.000-80.000 sp when you reach chapter 4 on cop career, you are only able to use the one specific car at the beginning of chapter 4. There are only 4 pursuit techs to buy too (all level 1 only) Achievement unlocked when I bought them. Hope this helps! :)

It’s enough just to buy everything of the first level for the first police car.

In my case, to receive the prize I needed the first car and after installing all the modules on the car.

On a previously completely improved car, such as the JaguarC-X75 Prototype, the miracle did not happen (they did not give a prize).

You need to install each maximum technology at least once

Playing as a cop, they will give ferreri a full upgrade, remove the upgrade and put it back, voila, the golden trophy is yours
