The reasons behind this slightly slower acceleration are a matter of speculation. It's debated whether Tesla intentionally limits the speed via software to facilitate future upgrades or if the lower performance is a result of hardware differences, possibly related to the motors or increased vehicle weight. Given Elon Musk's comments on Tesla's casting process, there may also be room for weight reduction, which could enhance performance without hardware modifications.
This addition signifies Tesla’s confidence in ramping up production of the 4680 battery-equipped Model Y swiftly, signaling a positive step in their cost-reduction and production scalability efforts.
