BMW EV Delivery Stop

[Peter 224]

I've just been told by a pal that BMW has told all UK dealers to hold delivery on any BMW EV due for delivery. They have not provided a reason or re-scheduled the delivery.
And we thought Tesla was a bit unhelpful with delivery changes???

Does your pal work for BMW? If so is this a new hold? They did have a hold due an issue with overvoltage on iX3's (BMW iX3 (2019 - 2021) « Car-Recalls.eu)

He was due to collect his new MiniE tomorrow. The car is at the dealer, he has the VIN number, but now no delivery date.

Pouch cell/charger problem like Porsche?

I had previously ordered a iX3 before cancelling and getting the M3. My car was held up in Southampton for almost 4 weeks for checks to the battery.

My next door neighbour was due to have his IX3 delivered at the end of October and still cannot get a delivery date. He was so excited about joining the EV club and now feels totally let down - and I don't blame him!

There seems to be more to this issue than is being made public.
