Maybe you still have a bit of warranty left, or the dealership may be nice enough to work just outside of your warranty..

20 seconds to 100kph is quite a while! (That's just around 60mph.)

In my opinion:

You need to take it to the dealer and have the Electronic control module reflashed with the latest software for your Vehicle ID number.

And or

Take it to the dealer and have them diagnose the specific complaint
