I’ve been told to expect the same model as you, also at the end of November…I've just been on the phone to my dealer in the UK and he has booked me in for a test drive next Friday.
I asked about delivery of my GT-Line S AWD and he said end of November is still the expected date.
He's always been a bit vague so I won't hold my breath.
Interesting, I was also told the reason for kia holding back until January was to make sure they meet their EU emissions targets next year, but with the UK being out of the EU now then that wouldn't be the case there. I wonder if anyone in the EU will get theirs soon.Guy on the Facebook page posting images of his vehicle at the dealer (looks gorgeous). He picks it up next Wednesday, as does another guy from a different dealer.
Yea, I think I will, thanks. I've requested to join the Facebook group now too, thanks for the linkGuy in Holland is also posting with his nice blue EV6 that he already has - Facebook Groups
I think you should go back to your dealer and ask what is really going on, and point him in the direction of the Facebook posts.
Check your private messagesI was on to my dealer in Ireland today and he said the same thing. Although, the car has arrived in the country and will be even stored at the local dealership, Kia will not allow them to register the car until January 2022. It is to do with Kia meeting some emission targets for next year. It is extremely unfair when the car was promised to be delivered in October 2021 and it is actually at the Dealership!
That's because nobody wants them so they have to batch almost a years worth together to make it worthwhileBy the way current lead time for a new build Jaguar I-Pace is 11 months!
Has anyone out there managed to get a GT Line into their hands anywhere in Ireland?That's because nobody wants them so they have to batch almost a years worth together to make it worthwhile
I ordered my (Earth Model) End of October, and was told that they would not be delivered until January 2022 - I enquired about having it for 2021, however I was told, that Kia wouldn't allow them to register any in 2021 so needed to wait. I am okay with waiting, and besides, having a 221 plate rather than a 212 adds a bit of resale value to it for future!Hi all,
I've been watching the forum for a bit but never posted before. I put a deposit down for an EV6 with a local dealer here in Ireland and was told the cars were due to arrive on a boat by the 15th October (today) and would be registered and ready for collection by customers by the end of the month.
I got a call today and the dealer told me the cars have arrived, but they have been told by Kia HQ that NO customer cars were to be registered until January. The cars are in the country, he has chassis numbers but they can only register one demo model per dealer and thats it. Customer cars are going to be held in storage until January.
I can't get my head around why they want to do this, and am not sure what recourse (if any) I have to get the car by the originally agreed date.
For various reasons to do with my own circumstances, waiting to January is not a good option for me and the fact that the ev6 was promised for delivery this month was a key factor in my decision (aside from it being a great car)
Anyone else in Ireland, the UK or elsewhere had similar issues?
