October delivery Dates

[Azo9987]

Last Friday I called the SC and was told Tesla pushed the date back to tool the factor for EURO on Model Y. This is why the wait time decreased from 7-11 weeks to 4-8 mid-September.

Odd because Tesla's own website says "production begins 2021" under all of the EU options for the model Y

Agreed, however Model Y was delivered early to the US, ahead of schedule.

Where did you get the information about september 14th?

My sales representative told me they would shift production September 12th, so I monitored the estimated week (which were 2-4 weeks at the time). I checked until Monday morning when the estimate finally said 7-11 weeks, which means to me the factory finally shifted production. Maybe the website was delayed on the estimate, but I assume majority of people who ordered after that date will be looking at Q4 deliveries, unless they got matched with a leftover car.

Some with VINs are reporting 9/20+ build dates, so not sure...

They would not impact European end of Q3 deliveries by announcing model Y before October. Not saying Y to Europe is definitely happening. Just that if it was it would not be announced yet. If they do Europe Q4 they may remove the $3K U.S. discount too.

I was told this morning that the 5-9 week estimate on my order was accurate. When I mentioned November for when I might see a VIN, they said no and that the entire fourth quarter would be for overseas production and it might not be until January that I get a car. I’m not sure how both 5-9 weeks and January square up.

Say it isn’t so!

Besides the fact that I’m not sure I believe it, I’d like to see the car I ordered on September 5th before winter.

Not sure this applies in this thread, but just received a VIN 50xxx. Could be a hold over I guess or a rejected car. No word from Tesla. It showed up when I logged into the Tesla site.

I ordered on 9/9, have a VIN in 57xxx range and got the text saying 3 to 8 days 8 days ago. SA says vehicle is still in production (as of a couple days ago). Said I would see it before end of month, but clearly that's not happening. I imagine some domestic deliveries will occur into October, but I also was told by local SA that non-domestic production would start in October and that any orders after 9/15 would be later Q4 delivery.

I ordered mine on June 24th, I had my VIN number 3 weeks ago, still not heard anything.. I was not in a hurry.. but this is little longer than I was hoping, lets see

As of today the estimated wait time for a MY is 3-7 weeks, sounds like the Q3 rush is done, I imagine we will see some movement.

Hopefully the October deliveries will be 21' model years.

Tesla does model years by production calendar date. January builds will be ‘21 model.

We will know shortly but looks like starting last year, they have switched to the industry standard. See model 3 forum and model x. 2020 model years were shipped in OCT 19

 

[SS01]

Nope. Everything I've read says they shift production to overseas for the first half of the new quarter. I don't know how it will work out with the Model Y since they're not shipping it overseas until 2021, but so far I don't have a delivery date either. I hope they do in fact offer some october dates.

Any idea if "overseas" here includes Canada or is specifically non-NA markets?

I'm another Sep 9 order with no VIN yet - timed the high end 11 week (at the time) delivery estimate to the end of my current lease, so it'd be kind of annoying to have to go almost a month without a car...

Still hoping elons tweet of early q4 for 7 seater is accurate......

can you link those model x and 3 posts? I ordered a Y and I am timing it to be delivered on Oct 22 as a surpise gift for wife on our wedding anniversary. I wish it was the 21 model

MASTER THREAD: 2020 model year Model 3 discussion

wondering if with a good Q3 sales, the 2020 VIN numbers have a good chance of getting exhausted soon? I read last year starting Oct 10, they started issuing 2021 VINs

I had my VIN 4 days ago (9/28) for MY I ordered in 9/17. When I call SA yesterday for delivery date, SA said can’t find delivery info and seems like still in factory. I see no one got delivery in October yet based on Google spreadsheet. So I guessed they are collecting cars in factory yard and batch ship later this month.
Today morning, my VIN disappeared in Management Order page. WTH?
Then I am thinking they probably start processing ‘21 model, I hope.

Yes, my SA shared with me Tesla was "changing" and "deciding" on how they ship cars to the East Coast for OCT. Charlotte, NC here.
