Having only one model would mean you can streamline everything since you’re always doing the same.

The cost of every car is the same in terms of hardware and Human Resources. Easier to work with.

If you ever decide to upgrade, you’ll just pay them. 0 effort on their part.

Repairs are also easier regardless of upgrades since there’s only one model.

If the car is resold, they can enable more features too.

If the actual functionality is dependent upon Tesla’s systems, sure. Otherwise you’re just enabling a jailbreak market. There’s even precedent for this with Malone tuning.
