Default 2021 Model Availability?

Any information on timing of the new 2021 models? Anyone order one and have an ETA?

Thanks,

Wayne

Ordered last week, was told "early February". My salesperson said that the "delivery date" is often late due to the multiple shipping services involved. (Ship, port processing, truck from port to dealership)

Wow! Those are very aggressive timelines! I have had a 2020 HSE on order since June 10th. My expected delivery date for a 2020 is December 28th. It wasn't even scheduled to go into production until late November. I do suspect it will be early, but I wonder how accurate some of the numbers above are.

My HSE has nothing fancy to hold up production like 22" offroad tires, which I have heard push the build out quite a ways.

I sure hope that you guys have better luck than what I have had!

That seems long. We ordered our HSE in the middle of July, it was built 9/4 and arrived ahead of the scheduled 10/23 delivery date last week, we took delivery this past Thursday, less than 3 months from order date.

Not expecting my listed delivery date to be accurate. The dealer warned me ahead of time that most likely it will be delayed. Especially for a winter delivery. “The plant shuts down in dec for vacation, inclement weather, some retooling for the 2021” -all cited per my dealer. Not sure how long though.

I custom ordered my 17 D5 and it was early. I would be more worried about a widespread Euro shutdown due to Covid!
My 15 Range Rover Sport HSE was also early.
