Here is the detail:

In advance of the first European Model S deliveries, we are excited to announce the release of some new vehicle option packages designed to optimize multiple aspects of the ownership experience and vehicle performance. Below are details of each newly available option, any of which can be easily added a-la-carte to your existing booking, if not already included:
Cold Weather Package: Stay warmer as the weather gets colder with new heated second-row seats, heater windshield wiper nozzles & cowl, improved defrost grill, and an upgraded battery coolant heater to improve vehicle performance and range in cold climates.

Park Assist: New front and rear-mounted bumper sensors measure the distance between Model S and other objects, making navigating tight spaces much easier and more comfortable. Audible and visual feedback will be communicated clearly on the instrument panel.

Lighting Package (included standard on Signature Series): In order to improve both utility and ambience in your car, this package is designed to improve your visibility in and around the vehicle, and includes additional lighting in the footwells, door jams, door panels, and storage areas.

Security Package: In addition to the standard security features, overhead intrusion sensors and battery-backed alarm sirens are now available.

Performance Plus: This re-tuned suspension adds a very comfortable, yet firm ride that helps to transform Model S into a true driver’s car. Delay between driver input and steering response is reduced through optimized dampers and bushings, helping you to unleash the maximum potential of Model S Performance.

At this point in time, the new options are not yet available for selection in the online configurator, so our Product Specialists are standing by to answer all your questions about product details and pricing and/or update your configuration and paperwork if you’d like to upgrade your vehicle with the new selections. In order to add any new options to your configuration without delaying your vehicle’s production timing, all updates must be submitted no later than Monday, April 15, so please reach out to our Product Specialist team as soon as possible to specify your preferences.
 
No pricing yet.

The lighting option (imho the least attractive/necessary addition) is standard for Signatures. Would be nice if park assist would be become standard for Signatures, now that it looks a Signature does not even guarantee delivery before (Norwegian) P's. The extra value of a Signature is meager (if you know it costs a few thousand euros more and required a 7 times higher deposit).

EDIT:

Don't want to sound too much like a whiner: it's really great that Tesla has listened to customers' requests. These package will certainly broaden the customer base. The lack of parking sensors was a big obstacle for many people.

If I could get my US order upgraded with the Parking Sensors for $500 (which seems to be the USD equivalent), I'd jump on that in a heartbeat.... even if it put me to the back of the line for my multi-coat red again. ;-)

That sound reasonable. The parking sensors would be something like € 500 if I calculate right. We knew the performance package is expensive.

EDIT: 0.175 is the dollar rate. The euro rate is 0.135, which would mean a price of about € 400 for the parking sensors.

Damnit Tesla.... Now I want Performance Plus, Rear seat heating and Parking sensors. I hope they are all retrofittable. If not, might be time to start considering flipping this car and ordering another.
 
Amazing news! Been praying for some more options! Especially winter options. Yes power folding mirrors are one thing from the wish list that didnt pop, but heated front window would be the only thing really lacking to make it perfect now! This will sell even more cars! Yes Many exclamation points, but so damn happy!

Don't be mad at Tesla, I would be happy if I would have had the car for some time now, but still unable to get it any time soon. Even without the cool stuff now get's available I would like the car very much.

And yes I'm also happy to get the possible options, but wouldn't even think about it if they where not available at all
