bZ4X Delivery Dates

[bZ4xSupra]

Just went on AutoTrader and there are a number of new cars available, even a Prem! 

With no new orders being processed until later this year, I'm wondering how well this launch has gone for Toyota. 

Id have assumed demand would have outstripped supply, all being well. So I'm surprised to see brand new unregistered vehicles available.

We have been keeping tabs on resale values for a few months.

Some of this cars you mention have been listed for a few months now, and the red AWD bZ4X has been reduced by about £2k ( was £49,950 in February 23 )

Not sure what to make of this.  Maybe these are just demonstrators that the dealers need to move on, as the next batch of bZ4X will be 11Kw charging.

Tesla have dropped their prices this week, the second time in as many months, so maybe they are srrugglig to move stock ?

Media reports of late do tend to suggest new car sales are holding up well despite a weak economic outlook.

Then there is this from S&P:

" Sources said Battery makers have been significantly reducing output since early December because demand in the coming months was not looking promising...... "

Maybe the crazy energy costs in the UK are going to hit EV sales ?

Just a short update on my earlier post.

2024 models will have as standard 11kW charge cable plus an oval steering wheel (not a yoke), no doubt to try and address the obscured display issue. Higher spec models will have more safety sense stuff and more remote options.

All dates on earlier post confirmed. D-day being 4 April for new web pages showing 2024 specs, prices, finance offers and for on line orders.

I was given the choice a few weeks ago between sticking with my order with a 7kw onboard charger - to arrive on 20 March or upgrade to a car with an 11kw charger to arrive in April sometime, can’t remember the date. In Ireland

I hope I am offered that option but will it mean a higher cost for the car as I thought forum April they were increasing in price…..I have a home charger so the 7kw doesn’t bother me too much ..
