Okay, so many things have been blamed for the delay, so what do you predict will be the next excuse?
I'm going for the Partial Solar Eclipse on 25 October. Not enough solar to power the plant.
Delay Bingo
I would suggest that it will remain the same. Massive global supply issues in raw materials, labour and manufactured parts such as chips. I don;'t think any company is deliberately delaying supply of vehicles to their customers.

VWs comms are bad but I'm not sure outcomes are actually the worst. I've seen two different posts from people (on speakev I think) recently about Kia and BMW orders; both had been waiting a number of months to be told their orders were now fully cancelled and the only option was to switch their order to a different/new model at a new price and be at the back of the queue again. VW haven't gone that far, in fairness they have so far continued to deliver the models people ordered for the price they ordered, just slow.
I think there are a huge number of people waiting on cars of all brands at the mo who will think the grass is greener elsewhere, but it generally isn't.
