Cool. So that's maybe ten days ahead of original schedule? Mine was ordered early July with a projected date of "late September" which has now gone to a build date of 1/9, delivery to dealer on 12/9 - which would suggest yours has maybe been built and is on the way?

My T8 Inscription Pro was ordered on 28th July, anticipated delivery 20th September...

Sounds pretty consistent with my experience - about 8-10 weeks from order, allowing for the shutdown period.

I ordered my XC90 D5 Inscription end of June, and the expected fabrication date is still on 29 September. After reading the last comments I hope they will also move ahead of schedule with my car.

I HAVE A DATE!!!

So I ordered on the 14th July and they've now confirmed my car will arrive at the dealers on the 4th September. Only 19 days (plus whatever they take to turn around) and counting....... 😊

the xc90 t8 r-design is not eligible for a government grant, the only xc90 that will receive the grant is the t8 momentum

The xc60 t8 r-design pro and inscription pro are awaiting olev sign off, expected late September

The factories closed for annual holidays and maintenance on 14th July and first production date was today.

Fortunately I'm in Ireland, not the UK. So I'm covered

Exciting!

Build date now moved forward a couple of days to 30/8, delivery by one day to 11/9. Dealer says to put the heat on the lease company as they drive handover date.

So we're now a day or so before the supposed build date of my XC90 - anyone know when it'll show up as "built" on the dealer's system?

The reason for my paranoia is the dealer has said the lease co is notoriously rubbish at sorting their paperwork, so I want to keep the pressure on them to do their stuff as I'll be passing the dealer (ish) 4 days after the projected delivery.

Hi, conformation today that the car was delivered to the dealer over the weekend. Should pick up on Friday apparently...nearly there! 😀🤞
