I wonder if this also has to do with insurance, maybe a European thing. A car can have the sport package disabled electronically, confirmed by the subscription plan, and pay a lower rate for insurance.

The same could be for warranties as well. A manufacturer would be willing to offer a longer warranty covering more components on a car with standard engine than one with a high-performance engine.

But “sport package”

Could be any driving OVER 65mph...Or, FAST take off.

There are a lot of Stupid ways this goes wrong fast.

And insurance would LOVE it if a car was governed to 65max. Or, goverened take off from stop..
