Tesla offers paid Acceleration Boost for the new Model Y

In the US, Tesla has started offering an Acceleration Boost for the new Model Y. It can be purchased for $2,000 in the Tesla app, and allegedly adds about 100 hp, letting the car go from 0 to 60 mph in 4.2 seconds, compared to 4.6 seconds without this package.

That's not a huge improvement, granted, but for those who are still patiently waiting for the new Model Y Performance, it could be a way to make them stop waiting and get the Long Range All Wheel Drive (LR AWD) version and then purchase the Acceleration Boost to get close.

Right now, Tesla is still only selling the new Model Y in LR AWD form in the US, even though rumors had claimed we'd also see an RWD model and the Performance version.
