Default Anyone else waiting on an XC60?

I ordered a new XC60 R-Design via a leasing company at the end of June.

It was an existing dealer order that was then modified to our spec. Delivery date around the end of August. At the end of July, they advised it would arrive sometime in September. Now just revised to the end of October...

We are coping quite well with one car but still keen to step into our new motor. This will be our second XC60. We loved our first one (I know the new google system will be an adjustment but we are fine with that)

Is anyone else waiting on an XC60 or has recently stepped into a new XC60. If so, how was the wait?

Yes, hopefully a month away from delivery. I ordered in mid-June and the dealer managed to bag an unallocated car in the system, which reduced the time by a month.

Similar. Put an order in at the start of a May and given an estimated date of 8th Oct. Haven't checked in with the dealer for a while to see if that's slipped at all but haven't been told anything different.

Currently got an A5 coupe and going to miss the Audi system and dashboard but our lab puppy is getting bigger by the day and we're relying on the wife's small hatchback, plus I'm intrigued to see how android automotive develops.

Yes. Ordered mid May. Due end of September but I expect this will slip due to the factory closures due to parts shortage. Just a sign of the times unfortunately. I have to say that Volvo and my dealer are poor at providing updates.

Ordered a V60 at the start of August and haven’t even been given a build week yet. Emailed a week ago as they are always busy when I call, they still haven’t got back to even say they haven’t got one yet. They are quite bad at updates.

I ordered an XC60 T8 recharge Inscription Pro in late May and was given a delivery date of August. In late July I was informed that it was stuck in Poland, apparently to comes by train from China. I had a moan to Volvo UK and suddenly a few days later it arrived in UK and now been driving it for 2 weeks. My initial impression is lovely car but the Google system is driving me to distraction. No one can explain how it works it won't play the music from my iPhone and the navigation system is rubbish. I ordered a Polestar mod and was informed that it won't be available until; at least October as they have to work out how to work it with the Google system.
Having said all that I do love there car as a car to drive - it's worth waiting for

Could be worse - My BiL was told this week hes looking at 12 months or more for the new Jag he wants. Chips shortage.

Ouch - not sure I have the patience to wait 12 months for a new car. Though I know the chip shortage is proving a real problem for manufacturers with production way down. Keeping my fingers crossed that my car does arrive in October and not just keep slipping.

It sounds like we are all looking at similar times for our new XC60. It would be great to hear updates on timing when people's cars do arrive.
