Taycan delay - 8 weeks due to battery supplier fire

[Hirschaj]

My TYD's estimated start of production date has past but it has not updated to in production.

Same. I was hoping to see an update in TYD sometime yesterday but nothing happened.

Echoing what others have been saying, my estimated "Start Production" is June 24th but TYD is still stuck at "Scheduled for Production", let's see if it will update after this Friday.

Have a build starting on July 29 with PEC LA delivery in mid October. No date changes (yet) on TYD.

That said, I thought that all car manufacturers have at least 2 suppliers for all components, to minimize disruptions to the supply chain.

Same here, same date, same situation.

Mine had a start production date of 6/17 and completion date of 6/24. Also still stuck on scheduled for production. However, completion date has moved to 7/8. A lot have experienced a 2 week to day delay. So I’m hopeful it’ll be done on 7/8. Delivery date has not changed, which according to the Volkswagen shipping dates floating around, my 4s should make it to the shipping port on time.

I rather they halt than to give you inferior parts. Making it more of a over $100k camry

Mine has officially switched to start production.

Out of interest, when does your car first appear in the app in any form? Relative to the slot you've been told about that is. Mine is still blank and I have a supposed September build slot. Seeing it there would make things feel more real.

Mine appeared in MyPorsche just before I locked in my configuration - late April. At that time I was looking at an end July delivery, possibly. Delivery date still hasn’t been confirmed - I think they are waiting until the car is complete and on a ship to confirm anything.

Production ready date of my car is mid July, confirmed mid June by dealer. (order from 1/12/2021) Keep posted if something change.

wow! That’s an incredibly long lead time to order a car! You, and many of your European peers on this forum, have an incredible amount of patience. The last time I ordered a car to my specs the lead time was 6 months and I thought I was going to lose my mind.

Best of luck! Long time coming so I hope it works out for you.

We Europeans (if I'm still allowed to call myself one after Brexit) aren't necessarily more patient, we just use a more logical date format

Hello
On MyPorsche my 4S chalk has the information "scheduled for production" since 2022-04-23, it persists not going to the next phase which in Portugal is "Your vehicle has been produced".
The estimated delivery date only the dealer has access to, I called him now and he informed me that the date of 15-07-2022 remains there.
So I hope there are no more delays, and in two weeks the torture will be over.

I think dates are confusing for everyone on here.

So I suggest we have our own unique formula of yy/dd/mm - so today is 22/30/06.

Then everyone is equally confused and we all have to stop and think about it every single time - so it's fairer.

I hope it catches on and becomes globally recognised.
I don't want it to become a well intentioned, but failed experiment like Esperanto or Bitcoin (remember those).

Reading that formula gave me a nose bleed mate!
