If it's anything like my delivery those statements need to be taken with a large pinch of salt. Mine said the car was with the dealer long before it actually got there. I found that Volvo UK, the app and the online status often disageed as to the actual status.

As expected the app continued to show the 3 years, Dealer has now chased Volvo to learn he was wrong.. its was not 4 years (in sept 2023) for EV cars to match the 4 year loan (despite the order saying free servicing (worth £1499). He is also refusing to provide the alloy/tyre insurance that he confirmed verbally when i collected the car (saying paperwork to follow) as he now says I opted for the £2000 loyalty discount instead... these two things were never linked in our conversations/emails.

very miffed with Volvo Guildford

So I placed my order for an XC60 Ultimate Dark on 15th February 2024. And was given an estimated date of Late June.
Over time this changed to Late May and varied between that and Late June.
Early this month I was updated to say the car had left the factory and from mid June I was told the car is at the dealer, waiting for confirmation of CO2 emissions and model year.
Got a call on Wednesday 19th June to say model year was 2025 and it was an Ultra Dark, not Ultimate (as I has expected) and there was a minor change to the interior as the full nappa soft leather has been changed to include some textile inserts.
Got a call yesterday to say delivery would be from next week and confirmed delivery date of Tuesday 2nd July.
So that's 138 days from order to receiving the car. 4 months 17 days.

Not too bad.
