There are people in this very thread trying to purchase it as we speak that can’t do so
and are getting told different things by Tesla themselves.
Do you work for Tesla? What is the source of your absolutist and claimed factual decree on this matter?
It's of no consequence to me, you can defend your claim or not. For everyone else reading this thread, it is still valuable to point out that your factual proclamation is in direct contradiction to what others in this thread actively trying to purchase AB for their own vehicles are being told by Tesla.I was going to reply to you until I read your tone used in the last paragraph and decided not to.

Just trying to help you out here as a follow Tesla owner.I just purchased my 2024 Model Y Long Range AWD last week and I don’t have the acceleration boost option in the Software upgrades in my Tesla app. There are folks that don’t have this option available for some weird reason. I was told by Tesla customer service over the phone that I don’t have this option due to the battery type installed in my car.
My cars specs for those that are curious/interested:
2024 MYLR AWD, 7 seat, Fremont
Rear motor is a 990 3DS (?) - can’t upgrade with Ghost either
Battery: BT48 (according to Tesla customer service on the phone)
Here’s the things I’ve done to get the AB option:
I’ve deleted the app and reinstalled. Still don’t see the option in the Buy tab under Upgrades within the app. Called Tesla twice. First time they said my car wasn’t AWD but my purchase placard says I have AWD and within the app under Specs & Warranty it shows I have AWD and I’ve verified with the dealership. Second time I called they mentioned the battery discrepancy. Went back to the dealer and said had I have known that my particular car wouldn’t qualify to get AB, I probably would have just bought the Performance model. I wanted a 7 seater but I also wanted the option to get AB.
I appreciate the help. I haven’t tried logging in via the website and see if the option is available. Will do that right now.Just trying to help you out here as a follow Tesla owner.
Have you tried logging into your Tesla account on a computer (desktop website) outside of the app and see if it shows up under your account?
Additionally, have you tried logging out, deleting, and re-installing the Tesla app?
I’d exhaust all other options first before choosing to believe Tesla customer service. I wouldn’t put anything past this company anymore, but, there are a few posts on the internet from a couple of years ago saying that some folks had experienced this. Tesla’s official documentation is nonexistent on this matter and no official communication, either. So while it is possible that they’ve pulled a fast one, let’s try to see how far we can go.
I think you’ve tried everything. I just wanted to make sure that option is not staring right at you which happens sometimes as it’s on another tab.
The next step is to wait a while. Assuming this battery related claim is indeed true, maybe they just haven’t qualified that battery to get this upgrade (and eventually they would)?
AB is available for all Model Y Long Range trim. All years. Not available for other Model Y trims anymore.
I will try to ask the question in a polite manner. In a previous post in this thread, you made a statement that did not appear to have any qualifications around it. That statement was:
The statement above confused me a bit, since I dont think the acceleration boost option for model Y has ever been available for any trim other than the Long Range AWD one, but I also dont work for Tesla so dont know this.
Is there any information you can provide around your statement above that "AB is available for all model Y long range trim", which contradicts things being said by multiple Tesla locations at this particular point?
I just pulled the option codes for my 2024 MYLR following these directions - unfortunately it doesn't list battery code like the older cars do. Was wondering if there was something to chase down here.Battery: BT48 (according to Tesla customer service on the phone)
You are correct, I did post on that Reddit thread seeking guidance. The BT48 thing was what Tesla told me over the phone.I just pulled the option codes for my 2024 MYLR following these directions - unfortunately it doesn't list battery code like the older cars do. Was wondering if there was something to chase down here.
The only real internet references that exist to BT48 right now are this thread and the Reddit thread, and it appears both posts are from you.
Just logged in to the Tesla website and don't see an option to purchase the AB.
That website was very helpful to see the options that I have. It does show I have AWD which is great.I just pulled the option codes for my 2024 MYLR following these directions - unfortunately it doesn't list battery code like the older cars do.

Appreciate the question.
It was merely “information” I posted based on what I knew reading the internet and based on about 8 friends (in USA - if it matters) owning a Model Y LR who have AB showing up in their accounts, so I guess it was a sample based “statement” of reasonable assurance, if you will.
But as we explored this further with another poster above here, it does sound like it’s not a “oh it was right there I missed it” issue, but there’s probably something more to it. So, as it stands right now, I could very well be wrong and we would not like that because that means our fellow Tesla LR owners may be without AB upgrade until anything changes. The poster above is trying a couple of things out but let me tell you, it ain’t looking good !
When I talked to Tesla over the phone, that's one of the things they mentioned...that the battery was probably not qualified but from past experience, it eventually will be, but no guarantees. I'm ok with waiting, just would like some indication that the option will be available.I think you’ve tried everything.
