I believe the ONE/Extreme models are holding their momentum & demand
How do you mean? The only reason that the One goes into Q3 is due to deliveries of UK & Canada starting in June; my guess is that all (or almost all) the Nov '22 countries will have Ones produced by end of Q1.
Working in international procurement, right now the lead time to get a container move from Europe/Asia and delivered in North America is between 6 and 8 weeks. Knowing that cars do not need containers but specific kind of boat and delivery are most of the time on East coast for stock coming from Europe it could take only 4 weeks. So if One is produced in Q1 (Jan-Mar) the latest date arrival in Canada (Halifax port) would be in May.
Having had a reservation for an ID.4, there was a lot of activity on the forum about timing (VW would alert you when the car left the factory and when it would arrive). Typical shipping time was 4-6 weeks (including U.S. transportation). Initially, the west coast cars unloaded in Houston but then changed to San Diego. As Austria is land locked, it probably adds another week to get to a boat.
Good point about regulation in Canada, we always are special and take soooooooo long to fix things!Having had a reservation for an ID.4, there was a lot of activity on the forum about timing (VW would alert you when the car left the factory and when it would arrive).

I don't expect shipping to Canada being any longer than shipping to the U.S., I was using Canada as the last ones due to Fisker's Launch schedule:
From November 2022: Austria, Denmark, Germany, Norway, Sweden, The United StatesFrom April 2023: FranceFrom June 2023: Canada and The United Kingdom

I can not figure out why Canada is June and not in the initial launch (UK makes sense due to RHD), my only guess is they need some authorization to sell in Canada and will take a while. I do not know the regulations to sell in Canada but doubt they are having Canadian buyers purchase through the U.S.
Hyundai has cancelled all orders and reservations for the Ioniq5 in Denmark. They dont know when they can deliver. KIA EV 6 has a delivery time for over 18 months and they wont say which price in 18 months from now. I think its very important for Fisker to announce realistic delivery time. Deliver quality. The EV market is giga hugh. The demand is so much higher than the industri can deliver. Each of us - the customers - have to decide who we believe in. Which car we like the most, is it affordable etc. - and stick to it! We love to stick with the Fisker Ocean 🌊🤩
Polestar can take all the ordered they want, they still have to deliver….just like the rest of them.
They are delivering though. I'm starting to see more and more shiny new Polestar2s here in TX, and on their website, they are quoting October 2022 (earliest) delivery for a new-build order placed today.
I did a road test last thursday on a Polestar 2 AWD, very confortable, quiet and powerful.
The post was about the Polestar 3 orders - at least that what I was responding to. Anyone can take orders.
I ordered a Polestar 2 AWD a few weeks back and was told by the salesman and my email confirmation an October delivery date. If the Ocean Ultra ends up being something that I hope it will be , I will give my Son the Polestar 2.
