What is the Tesla Model Y Performance upgrade?

What are my upgrade options for the Tesla Model Y? I saw a Performance upgrade option—does this just turn my Model Y into a Model Y Performance? If not, what does it do?

Yes, the
Tesla Model Y
Performance upgrade does turn your car into the Performance model! This upgrade includes features like:
  • A faster 0-60 time of 3.5 seconds
  • A top speed of 155 mph
  • Improved handling and braking control
If you decide to go for this upgrade, keep in mind that it’s pretty pricey. Upgrading your Model Y to a Model Y Performance will usually cost you an additional $10,000 on top of the price of your vehicle.
Additionally, you’ll have to make some sacrifices for this upgrade—namely your car’s range and fuel efficiency. You’ll see a decreased range and fuel efficiency in your Model Y due to the other improvements made through the upgrade.
If you’d like to upgrade your Model Y, it’s a good idea to start saving right away. To put aside some extra cash every month, check out the
