You can, at the very least, retrofit the Juniper suspension onto the old car [1]. I haven't ridden in the new Performance yet, but I recently got a 2026 Model Y and the suspension is night and day compared to my 2024.

That's awesome, I had heard about the new Juniper suspension on premium models retrofitted. I have a 2022 YP and didn't want to change the ride height so I wanted to retrofit the juniper performance shocks. I plan on keeping the car forever so it might be a thing I try to do in the future since it's likely to fit based on the video you sent. I haven't seen any videos on the performance retrofits. One option is to not have the electronic damping and keep the shocks disconnected, but then it will stay on whatever default mechanical setting there is. I could go with aftermarket of course, but this just really piques my interest for some reason.
