Here, the carrots refer to attractive features that might lure you into adopting the new version. It comes from the idiom carrot and stick. To induce someone to do something you can promise a reward, the carrot, threaten punishment, the stick, or do both. There’s an analogy here to trying to make a horse or donkey go forward. Thanks to Todd Wilcox for the picture suggestion.
