I noticed that the Y is offering an Acceleration Boost for $2k.. 4.6s to 4.1s on the Y, any chance the CT might ever be in the works regarding this?

They don't offer it to the higher end vehicles (S/X) so the thought is they won't for the CT, either. Who knows for sure. It's been asked on X and Elon/Wes have ignored the question.

I’d want it, but highly doubt it’ll come out. LR 3/Ys have their power output nerfed. Doubt the DM CT is nerfed like a LR 3/Ys.

Oh ok, I was not aware S/X are not offered that option..

it’s unlikely we’ll see an Acceleration Boost for the Cybertruck soon, at least not in the same way as the Model Y. The truck’s weight and design make performance upgrades trickier, and Tesla usually focuses on software tweaks that don’t require major hardware changes. That said, if enough owners express interest, they might consider it, but for now it feels more like wishful thinking than a near‑term feature.

Unfortunately for me my previous Model S plaid has spoiled me in the speed dept. I would have gotten the Beast if they would have put the plaid motors in the truck. After test driving the beast I didn't "feel" enough of a boost to pay up for it. So I settled for the AWD. Maybe one day a 1k HP truck will be made from Tesla even if it isn't the Cybertruck style.

They should absolutely offer it to Cybertrucks, they would make a killing. I AB'd my Model Y and had my Model S Plaid at the time. "Faster" was always better until I got over it, it's cool but becomes a one trick pony and a costly one at that (I melted tires with my Plaid).

4.4 sec goes to 3.5 sec

Model Y, Cybertruck (soon!)

The pre-refresh Long Range X did get an acceleration boost at one point. This was circa 2019 if I recall correctly, but it’s certainly not in the cards today.

That said, I’d love an option like that on the AWD CT. Take my $2K and bring me down to closer to 4 seconds flat 0-60. Well worth it!

4.1s to 3.6s would be a nice fit.

No. Only the 3 and the Y. It's always been a point of contention with S/X owners.
