The upgrade increases the maximum power of the Twin Motor from 300 kW (402 bhp) to 325 kW (436 hp) and reduces the acceleration time for 0-100 km/h (0-62 mph) to 4.6 seconds.
The upgrade also includes a new Performance drive mode that changes the mapping of the accelerator pedal to give a much quicker response, while more torque is distributed to the front wheels. This provides a more responsive and agile driving experience compared to the Standard drive mode.
