Well, that's how it works with Tesla, part of their allure. Overprovisioned hardware from the factory and dripping software updates to "unlock" the extra performance. Any other manufacturer could also do it with their tunes and infortainment features, but they either didn't think of it, consider it too risky or are simply lazy.
