What does the LR Acceleration Boost cost in Australia?

[Culfy]

I had a situation the other day where TACC nearly had me run up the back of a car - it appears there's a blind spot for TACC.

I'd come from the M4 east bound and was transferring to the M7 south bound. I'd left TACC on while I was on the slip road. It had slowed to 90 then 80 and had then increased to 90 then 105. As I was about to enter the M7 there was a slow car passing the exit in the left lane. TACC missed it completely and I was only a couple of metres from hitting it when I braked to turn off the TACC.

The fact that it is uber careful with parked cars makes this even worse, now it's inconsistent too!

Ooops. Thanks

So how long does it take after delivery to have the option to purchase the boost?

 

[sdca]

Is there anything further on these recently delivered LRs that ?may/may not have the Accel Boost option?

 

[jamesgo]

Sounds like my wife not wanting to use FSD... she's like why do I want the car to steer and auto-change lanes.

So how long does it take after delivery to have the option to purchase the boost?

Should be once you get access to the Tesla Account (online or app), which is normally on delivery day.

I was under the impression that AB is not available on the current LR.

AB is apparently temporarily not available on MY21 Q4 + builds.

i'd want a speed limiter along with Acc Boost to drive in Aus.... its too easy to get booked as it is on these roads ... no mercy

Any reason why?

Something to do with needing to test it with the new batteries I think? I hope they don't run into any issues or change their mind to make it never available for the 2022 LR!

Hope they did not downgrade anything in that could prevent us getting this option.

Yeah I wonder.. does anyone know if the front and rear motors remained the same between the 2021 LR and 2022 LR?

 

[Culfy]

The issue is apparently the 82kWh battery. Needs testing or something. Apparently this has happened before and it's expected it'll be available in the future, when they have done enough testing or got some data on the battery perhaps?

Testing data requires more LR 82kwh battery owners to floor it from the lights.

Is that the same for both 2021 LR and 2022 LR models?

No planned change known, so should be same.

MY21 Q4 LR owners, check the app. AB might be available?

 

[jamesgo]

It's probably to do with how much the new battery pack can discharge to the motors. I'm guessing that's why the new SR+ with LFP is slower.
