10 month lead time for GTS 4
- Thread starter mikeg
- Start date
Very interested to know if anyone is experiencing excessive lead times for new orders? I placed an order (allocation) in April and was advised then by my local PC that the lead time was circa 6-8 months. I've recently been advised its now more likely to be 10 months. Is this the current norm?
Thanks
Ken
I think the root cause is the world-wide semiconductor shortage combined with increased demand for cars and for electrical consumer goods in general. Unfortunately the car manufacturers were rather slow off the mark ramping-up orders and customers like you are suffering the knock-on effects in longer delivery times. As Mike has said, I think “shopping-around” is your only option if you want an earlier delivery.
I noticed that someone on the Macan forum was complaining that his car was being delayed because Porsche couldn’t get the seats from the supplier!
