Well, I may have spoken too soon. Maybe I could use it near Santa Barbara.

Cummins offers factory power upgrades for some of their diesel engines. You can increase horsepower from 340 to 360 or 380. Does not affect warranty.
Mercedes has long offered “hardware” upgrades in conjunction with Brabus as well as different sportier versions of most models, so refining performance for those that want it via software seems a logical step.
I actually drive a Mercedes, would I pay this? No but we don’t really have the the roads of traffic that warrants the need for fast acceleration, but I can certainly see it being useful in some locations for those that want it.

Just curious: is it possible to negotiate these payments at purchase? E.g. could you arrange for a few years of this subscription as an incentive to buy the car (in normal times?)
You can probably buy it outright at the initial purchase.
