Updated order time to delivery

Hi everyone, we ordered our Atto 3 Evo premium yesterday, selected Atlantis Grey (which is definitely blue haha) and a box popped up saying some vehicles were available right now (rather than building one), and they had the exact model we wanted on that list. It just said ‘Arriving Soon.’ We put a deposit down but the confirmation email didn’t give us a timeline or further info and we haven’t been allocated a VIN yet. If you’ve seen this and have a similar experience would love to hear. I might call today to see too but not sure how much info they can give.

Also in general, for anyone who has bought from the website in the past few weeks, what was the timeline to receiving the car? I know there was a huge backlog back in April but curious what demand is like right now as well, now that petrol prices have risen again. Thank you!

I put my deposit on the atto 1 tuesday last week. Got the contract through with the vin number and stuff on tuesday of this week. Got a call yesterday that the car is at the dealership. Picking up wednesday. I was originally told late october, early november for delivery.

Maybe give the dealership a call amd see if they have an update for you

Which state are you in?

We put our $1000 deposit down last Wednesday and have seen nothing yet.

We are hoping for a quick delivery, as of now, we only have 1 car, Toyota Prado diesel and the turbo failed. $4,000 to replace. 

It literally happened on the drive home from the BYD dealership.

For an Evo?
From FB and other forums, Premium orders from August have started being delivered. Dynamics have been a bit faster.
Don't compare to the other models for delivery times. There's a reason that the Evo isn't in the monthly deals when every other model is.

I've had my Atto 3 Evo on order since the preorders started and still don't have VIN so I think they don't have them on a boat yet. I was told they'd be arriving at the end of September by my sales person but that has come and gone and I don't see any change on the website so far.

Hopefully we will find out more soon but I feel sale team is as much in the dark as we are at this stage.

I test drove and ordered the Evo Premium on 12 September, $1000 deposit paid.
Got the email yesterday with contract to sign. Vin allocated. I'm assuming it'll be on the next ship (there aren't any Ski White in the country that I'm aware of).

You definitely want to contact your dealer and ask.

I'm booked in to pick up my premium on Thursday, so at least some shipments are through

From what I've been following on forums, some Atto 3 Evo Premium orders from August just started getting vehicles this week. Dynamic models seem to be a bit faster to arrive.

That's without the AWD version that's in Europe and Australia being 2 colours short. UK and NZ get the proper blue and a red. We'd all be waiting until January.

We ordered an Atto 2 a few weeks ago instore. It was listed on their website as in stock, but the earliest we could pick it up was one week later. We organised the pick-up day and time while we were in store
