Yes it is because the game they played at E3 was made by bungie, that means they put it in the game so it is official.
Here is the exact quote of what the guy said
"Jumping in a Warthog and taking off to the enemy base. Yeah done that before. Hitting the Left Trigger to inject the Nitro like power boost , screaming up a ramp and soaring majestically over a wall on tragectory for the heart of the enemy base. Wow. That was new, and oh so sweet.
Now in that silent serenity of mid air flight I see a light glow dead ahead. The next fraction of a second seems to take a whole minute. The light grows bigger. The slow realisation that it's an incoming rocket creeps into my mind. Still powered by my boost fueled leap , I could not turn, dodge, or duck. Impact. And now a new mid air dynamic, sailing magestically, arms flailing, Hundereds of feet back to the beach, landing in a heap. Awesome."
Those were his exact words. It sounds obvious to me that there is a boost. They were playing at E3, It states it in the magizine. If this does not convince you that there is a boost then God have mercy on your soul.
