Just wondering if anyone knows what happens with the MY 22.5 changes, I’ve ordered family pro performance and it looks like some of the features that were advertised when I placed the order and now optional through a new assistance plus pack.
Also looks like the Sport pack is now optional.
Will I still get the features that formed the contract that I signed? I know that the car I will get will be the MY 22.5 as they only build the latest revision.

I think only the dealership will be able to answer these questions, and that "Assistance Pack Plus" question will be a doozy. I'd be kinda surprised if VW throw it in for free, but if you amend the spec they're within their rights to amend the price too, and that might materially raise the cost of the car due to price changes on 1-Dec.

Assistance pack is still standard on Family - it’s the Assistance Plus that is optional:

Also both Sports pack and Sports pack plus were always options on Family as far as I know… certainly they were in the September brochure and also online through October/November before I placed my order (I spec’d Sports pack only at £340)

Yeah sorry, the Configurator app is a bit confusing. The assistance pack seems to have things that are already included in the standard configuration so I'm trying to work out what do you actually get extra with the assistance pack other than traffic jam assist and area view. It mentions exterior lighting, etc which I thought was standard anyway on Family.

I assume if I was to change my order (no confirmed build week) to add Assistance Plus it would mean that all the price rises would then apply to me for the options that I had previously speced?

The options search function is quite helpful in showing if a feature is standard, though not always. As far as I can tell be searching & comparing, the “plus” pack adds Traffic jam assist, area view, and “Memory Parking Plus”. However I also note that nowhere does it mention side assist, but if you add the “plus” pack then the images show the mirrors have the side assist feature on the inner edge.

I actually wanted the assistance package when I placed the family order and was disappointed it wasn’t an option. I do a lot of motorway driving on M25 so having traffic jam assist was very appealing as well as side assist. It is odd that side assist is not mentioned at all. I kind of feel such a safety feature should really be standard.

If you use the configurator to add the Assistance Pack Plus, the 360 degree image clearly shows the Side Assist indicator lights in the door mirrors. So even though it's not mentioned specifically in the pack blurb, I suspect you'll get Side Assist if you spec the Assistance Pack Plus, and in the previous brochure it was name checked. Another example of the configurator being shirtballs on detail

Interestingly, my dealer had emailed to suggest that, "after speaking to Volkswagen,", cars built in the new year will have the "the latest software and systems", when I asked about park assist.

Just been in touch with my dealer about adding the Assistance Pack Plus to my Family Pro Performance as it wasn't an option at the time of ordering in Oct and he contacted VW and they have said that they "should" be able to price protect my original order meaning I should only have to pay the additional pack price without having to pay the new prices that were introduced on 1st December. I was told they won't 100% know until they do it.
I've been told he will instruct VW only to make the amendments if that can honour the original car price etc and I'll just pay the difference for the cost of the extra pack.
Lastly, he couldn't guarantee it wouldn't move me to the back of the order queue even though I'm currently Status 10 Week 14.

Just an update. I’ve successfully added the assistance plus pack to my Family Pro order without it affecting my original car and pre-existing pack prices. It also didn’t affect my finance agreement and I still get the VW finance deposit contribution so well chuffed.

I have also emailed my dealer to add the Assistance Plus pack, hoepfully get a similar response from you!
For me, it is the side assist and area view which swing our decision.
but at a cost of over £1k for side assist and area view, i am not sure many people will go for it.
Similar for the information plus pack for the HUD and 2 additional speaker, my current Prius has HUD and would like it but the the navigation funtion only availible through the standard Navi and not Google Map mean not much use, so again £2K for limited use of HUD and 2 speakers seems excessive for me.

I picked Life over family because I wanted the assistance pack over the things that came with Family. I'm happy people are getting their wishes, but I'm not sure I want to risk a place in the queue. I have a feeling that the price of the car might go down, with some more features like matrix headlights, but I'm a bit risk-averse to all this.

So my dealer assured me they wouldn’t change the order unless they could guarantee that the price wouldn’t change apart from the pack add-on.
What is odd is I can’t find any mention of side-assist on the Configurator at all anymore. I really hope this is still a feature as this is something I really wanted.

Yeah I know it was listed as a feature in old articles but since 1st December I can no longer see it mentioned on the configurator. Just wondering if it’s been removed on MY 22.5
