sorta similar to cars that can get over the air updates and suddenly accelerate from 0 60 faster then before...

Yeah, little known fact. The Tesla Model 3 Performance and the Model 3 LR AWD have the exact same batteries and motors. There's literally nothing stopping Tesla from offering an even higher performance boost for LR AWD owners to grant the same 0-60 as the Performance model, but they don't because it would cannibalize Performance sales.

  Download more ram, but real. What a world live in.

  I wouldn't say nothing. A higher power profile will cause more wear, leading to more warranty claims. TANSTAAFL.

    That's okay, warranties exist for a reason.

    The warranty is likely to expire before the higher wear actually starts leading to reliability issues. I'm also unsure how much it really makes a difference in an electric motor compared to a combustion engine. Unless you're going to the track (or significantly breaking speed limits), you're only putting extra wear on the motors for 2-4 seconds at a time, which is all it takes to get to your 40-70 mph target speed.
