Delivery Now 7-11 Weeks

[davraker]

Just looked at ordering page. The delivery time jumped from 2-4 to 7-11 weeks. Something must be happening.

Wonder if it is a retooling to switch over to the one piece rear cast.

 

[davraker]

Even more intriguing. All other models, including MY performance remain at 2-4.

May be the demand for Long Range AWD has gone up

I put in my order 10 days back . I hope i am not affected .. 12 weeks is a long time

Someone said they only deliver to the US in the 2nd and 3rd month of each quarter, maybe that's why?

 

[davraker]

Could be, but then why 2-4 for all other models including MY performance?

That’s true for other models but currently the Y has only been released in the North American market.

Hasn't the consensus been order by Sept 9th or so to 'guarantee' getting your vehicle by end of September....I think this just proves that. As now all new orders will be "last to fill" and they will fill all previous orders, and a few will trickle in, but ultimately, by end of December now....

I’m curious what is causing the delays if they aren’t shipping them overseas. Is the line(s) they make them on being shut down? I wonder if the same thing happened at the end of quarter 2?

Because the MY Performance costs more. I think the MY is probably the best selling Tesla right now, so might as well maximize profits at the end of Q3

What Delay? maybe they just changed it to not disappoint anyone? This is rumorville, so maybe the day was YESTERDAY was the cutoff date. All I am saying is this is within the idea that sometime in early september there was going to be a cutoff date, and maybe that date hit already.

I can make 400 Model Y's a day, I have 80,000 to make, and I have to have these all out by September 27th. That gives me TODAY to do it all.....speculation and fake numbers but thats the point....

I was in the Mission Viejo mall Tesla showroom this afternoon following up on our AWD Model Y order and the sales guy remarked that today was the cut off order date for domestic September deliveries was today. I guess 4:09 PM is tomorrow.

Might be starting international orders now and halting domestic? Is that a thing?

You got to the root of the problem. The information and lack of transparency from Tesla on the status of our vehicles leads us all to rely on speculation.

Not for the Y at least. Elon has said Giga China and Germany will be making their own Model Y’s. Freemont will not be exporting them to foreign markets. Now for all I know they could be pausing the Y lines to produce other Models that they do export.

I am merely playing devils advocate, they are being transparent, they are telling you the time frame is now 7-11weeks....as a business they don't have to tell you WHY its this long, but they are telling you itll take longer....what information are they not providing?

Why don't think have to tell me why? Why can't that be the norm?

I was talking to my SA on Saturday (9/5) regarding my order that I had made on 9/3 that they were told 9/5 was the cutoff date for end of quarter delivery.
