Enyaq Delivery Date
1 - 20 of 121 Posts
The timelines I was given are:
To be safe I think it's reasonable to assume ~4 weeks from the end of build, but could be a bit quicker or slower if things don't follow those timelines.
My dealer said my Week 20 Enyaq (w/c May 17th) should be at the dealership mid-late June.
- 4-5 days for build/QA inspection.
- Transport to Emden (no time given, but should be a few days max)
- 7-10 days waiting in Emden for a boat to the UK.
- Transport on the boat (no time given, but should be ~1 day)
- 7-10 days from receiving centre to dealership (on a car transporter I assume).

That would seem to make sense. Please do let us know if the timelines above hold true as you get more info. I’m trying not to get too attached to the tentative timeline, but it’s hard not to be a little impatient for such an exciting purchase.
I got a similar update 3 weeks ago, and just had a repeat saying the same thing. It's probably hard to second guess how COVID and chip shortages will affect the time line (that's microchips not fish and chips). I don't expect delivery before the end of the summer, and think we just need to be patient...

I had one a few weeks back from my dealer saying it was "in production" then today I've had two. One from the dealer to say it's been given a buil week and one from Skoda themselves saying the car is now in production.
From the timelines GBT gave above I'm thinking maybe 4-5 weeks from now.
Both emails from the dealer were automated, when I've tried to contact them I've heard nothing back. Quite poor really.

Just had another email from the dealer:
The latest update from the factory is that your car is in transit from the factory to the UK port.
I am still, despite my best efforts not to, holding onto the hope I can get it on or before the 5th of June. We've got a family trip planned to a cottage on the north east coast in Northumberland. The extra space of the Enyaq over my current Zoe would make it a lot more comfortable trip.

I also pestered my dealer for an update today, apparently mine is in QA at Emden. However my dealer also said that there is a registration block on UK Enyaqs until the 5th July, but they're hoping that it is lifted before then.
I think it’s controlled by ŠKODA UK, so the dealers probably have no real insight. They suggested this usually happens with new model releases, so they are hoping it’s temporary.
Same here - sounds like we're all in the same batch. The end of June / start of July sounds realistic.
Sinclair Skoda Swansea has said that they will have an Enyaq in the showrom by this Tuesday and hope to have a demonstrator by then too.

Emden on the mainland, not totally sure about over here (Sheerness?)
My wife and I touched and sat in a real live Enyaq this afternoon at Capitol Skoda Newport (we didn't drive it).
It was an iV 60 with 20" alloys in Quartz Grey Metallic (?), although the paint seemed to have some dark blue in it as well as the grey. The salesman didn't seem to know much about it, so any options on it were largely unknown.
He said that its lead time is 12 - 14 weeks.
It's not as large as I'd imagined (oo-er Matron), despite Robert Llewellyn's moanings..
It looks very nice, but it has less headroom than our Subaru Forester (which is fine).
Its interior looked very good, but I don't know which trim it sported (it had light grey fabric on the dashboard).
It had an electrically operated tailgate, no rear window blinds, no rear USBs , no apparent towbar, no indication of rapid-charging speed, no sunroof, and no electrically operated front seats.

They seem to be churning them out quite quickly: here in France, I was given an initial date of June but actually got my Enyaq iV 80 in mid-May. I think the VW/Skoda dealer was as surprised as I was. Good luck!
