Jayus you should have had something by now.... What spec did you order might be worth giving CS a rattle.
What did you order ?
Congrats Dloob on getting your vin allocated. What date did you order? Just trying to figure out where I stand on my Sept 17th order. Thanks in advance
Congrats, at least the long termers are getting a bit of movement 😉
I'm eagerly awaiting the January Simi motorstat report to see how "unpopular" the Ioniq 5 is. We can check the march report to see for yet another year the stagnant supply of Tesla's to the Irish market 🤗
Is indeed, but as I said also might give people realistic expectations. If there was a p***k like me ranting like this 6 months ago on this thread might have made things a bit easier in my "Tesla experience" 😜
To quote a Tesla rep
"Our customers are our advertisers" 🤣
Not at all buddy, fire away, take your anger out iif you need to it just gets a bit boring after a while, maybe you should get your own podcast comedy gold, as I said just enjoy your new car life's too short
Not bitching about the car, fabulous car I'm bitching about the company and their treatment of people.... I wasn't aware this thread was a dictatorship and you could only say good things about Tesla.
People should be aware not to put any credence on the dates they put on the website. Ireland and UK dates are the same but Tesla don't service the Irish market. I pulled the stats on UK and Ireland last year. Ireland should be getting at least 60% more allocation to be comparable with the UK.
Waiting times in Ireland 7 months in my case waiting time in UK 5/6 weeks.
At least other OEMs are trying to be someway realistic on the potential delivery dates and also possible to get a deposit back
The ioniq 5 are selling fast you be waiting few months for one similar to EV6 and model 3 there great cars no matter which one you pick.
Did you not see the ship that docked in cork, biggest car carrier ever in Ireland 500 odd Hyundai/Kia ev in December and another ship the same size in January. There nearly more ev's from Hyundai in one month than M3's in the last 3 years.
I luckily kept in touch with the dealer when I was looking at M3 or Ioniq 5 last August. I went with M3 because the "delivery" team said I'd get a car quickly.
Hyundai guy was honest and said Jan, I gave him a bell around November to see if there were any cancellations and I got one, someone wanted premium rather than premium plus so I snapped up the premium plus.
Also have a read of the text they are doing the same thing again checking if people still want to their order (likes of me for instance).
Don't count your chickens till you have a VIN in your source 😉
Your text along the lines of below without the 2022 reg
I see are saying 2023 for the higher spec EV6, hard to believe there's such little demand for the Ioniq that they're available straight away. Got a text from Tesla offering me a Model 3 in March last week so hopefully all orders from last year will be fulfilled this quarter.
Hope you enjoy your ioniq 5, maybe for your own sanity you should stop bitchin about the car you didn't buy and enjoy the one you did
Yep great screw the customer business model. If I've convinced just one person not to buy one to that'll do for me 😂.
Nice figures they get to keep. €100 for each person that pulls out. That's 100k with only 1000 people. Very easy to hit 1000 and more worldwide.
Yeah see what happens, in the end I'm happy with my premium plus ioniq 5 got a VIN the day of my order and the car 5 weeks later.
Only thing I'm still p*ssed off with is those Tesla p***ks still have 100 euro of my hard earned cash.
Yeah, my expectations are low! :-)
When I ordered, the website was saying March Delivery (and still does for that configuration) - let's see!
Given it took 6 months (3 delivery quarters) for me to get allocated, I wouldn't hold out too much hope for allocation after 9 days.
But who knows with the randomness of Telsa.
Jan 20th
DeliveryIE@tesla.com is the email I’ve been using to communicate with them with my RN number as the subject
Does anyone have an email address for the Service Delivery Team that would handle Irish orders?
When did you order?
Yep that was the spec alright.... They'll probably sort out one of the mates who ordered a few weeks ago first🤣
That's the spec I ordered, so let's see
Got a mail that will be assigning a Vin soon, seen as already have an EV now I'll be declining. So Blue SR for someone else.
Also I know a good few guys in December who changed their specs to match what was becoming available (basically whatever colour they had available (mainly white and grey). Possibly could have gotten a grey one but they would then charge me the Dec price which was 1k more than August price because they treat it as a "new order".
B**tards! 😜
When I ordered in August any colour was in September the website is like let's say a "guideline" a very inaccurate guideline. I don't mean to p*ss on your chips here just don't get expectations up too much cause it will wreck your head 😉.
A load of inventory cars appeared on the UK Tesla site today. Saw loads of white RWDs. Moat gone now as folks with reservations phone up and asked to be matched to those inventory cars.
I reckon a RoRo ship made it through the Suez canal and it's cargo became available. Wonder will something similar happen for Ireland.
I don’t but fyi white with aero was/is a May delivery. Any other colour was March.
Don't believe everything you hear from that crew, I spoke to to them many times in my 6 months wait. Depends on your spec. If its white you may have a chance.
All true, however it’s hard to see tesla maintain the sales volume of the 3 here in Ireland for the next 3-5 years until deliveries of something new comes. the base model 3 is the best EV on the market imho, but there’s only been 1,600 sold here since late 2019, when you consider the MASSIVE hype and excitement we saw in the lead in to deliveries. The Y deliveries won’t touch that volume nor excitement.
the 3 was announced 6 years ago in just a few weeks. Imagine the EV landscape here in Ireland in 3-5 years time.
It's 11kW in Europe and APAC, only it's 7kW in US. This is because in the US all AC charging is single phase. The NA onboard charger for the SR+ is 32a and the LR/P get 48a. Equivalent to 7kW/11kW here respectively.
