So when I receive the vehicle, how do I tell what motor I have? Is it somewhere in the screen? If so, what are the steps to access? Or do I literally have to look at the motor? Where on the motor would it be?

What motor does your 2023 Model Y have?

You have to look at the motor... details were listed on the very first post of this thread.
Car is great.
So far Ingenext Ghost not possible on this MY produced in Texas with 4D1. They are still trying to figure out if it will work.
Also interesting to note is that the Performance boost upgrade (~$2000) that was available in the past on non-performance MYs is not available on the configurator on tesla.c atm or in my phone app for my austin MYAWD. So what might that mean? You would think they would gladly take more of our money if they could unlock that without risk. I have no idea.

When you say Ghost is not possible, did Ingenext already do the testing on the Austin MYAWD?
The acceleration boost feature for $2k is not available on the standard range Y AWD, just the LR Y AWD. I don't know why, but its one of the reasons I bought the LR. I wanted the P's acceleration, but not the wheels/tires/ride quality. LR Y with AB is as close as it gets. Standard range Y AWD is still a fast car, they all are.
2023 MYP ride is fine by my standards…no brainer if you want the acceleration as it’s the only way to get the most outta it!
I am sorry but you need to clarify what you mean by your Austin MY with 4D1? Are you talking about just the standard range or LR since Austin makes both models. From what I have read the Austin MYLR with 4D1 works just fine. Can't vouch for the Austin MY Standard range though that somehow has 4D1 if it has it.
Austin made MY AWD refers to the standard range model. Tesla calls it Model Y AWD, which has led to some confusion as they are now all AWD. I guess Tesla didn't want it to be associated with the word base or standard as it implies a low end model and Tesla believes all their cars are high end.
Tesla stopped making the MY RWD model a long time ago. So it has been AWD for all MYs for awhile now. Yeah I think the term "standard range" was what Tesla used to actually call their base model vehicles but Tesla for some time now has dropped the "standard range" term. However people still use it as a way to differentiate the Long range model. Either way I don't think it is a big deal because people understand what it means.
And now the MY RWD is back in Canada...straight off the boat from China. LFP battery.
Tesla releases rebate eligible Model Y RWD with LFP batteries in Canada, Long Range now also qualifies for rebate
Tesla Model Y sales in Canada are about to get a big boost as a new lower priced and rebate eligible Rear-Wheel Drive (RWD) variant has been released north of the border. Since it is [...]

Wow, I've never seen a part marking with a crazy hard to read font like that before.
If they software limit the LR and SR, then what difference does it make? It’s not as if owners can “chip” their TESLA’s to turn a SR or a LR into a P overnight. You’re still getting what you paid for as a P owner.
You sure about that?
GHOST UPGRADE
It's almost scary.. You need to have the right motor (980 or 4D1). Here's a video to help you find the number motor. The Ghost doesn't work with the 990 & 780 motors. The update transforms your dual motor into a Performance It adds 150 HP to your car... You'll be able to do 0-60 MPH in 3.2...

P owners shouldn’t feel conflicted over them using the “performance” motors in lower trim cars. Yes you may be able to unlock the same performance with the ghost module but it comes with possibly voiding the warranty and just not having that performance there stock. I’d rather have the P and have everything OEM. Not to mention the other added features you get on the P you don’t get on the LR that would cost more to add later than having just bought the P.
I bought MYP and didn’t look back…it’s worth the paltry amount for the upgrade to me!
The upgrade cost is very reasonable at only 4k. The tough part is it comes with some upgrades that for some use cases/preferences are negatives. I'd like the extra power and brakes and would happily pay 4k for those, but would not want these things: the staggered and easily damaged 21 inch wheels with staggered tire sizes; the harsher ride; the lower ride height. Would love to be able to order a P with the better brakes, but without the 21s and with the LR suspension. That would be my ideal. The closest thing to that is an LR with acceleration boost which isn't a great bargain at 2k compared to the 4k for the upgrade to performance model.
