My Formentor hybrid (ordered oct21) went from march to august, but it’s now got an estimated build slot of Wk21 in May. The Ukrainian factory is back up and running!
great news. Hopefully that’s a light at the end of the tunnel for all us folk that’s waiting on hybrids
well done to the brave staff in the factory that’s working through the Terrible situation that’s happening in their country just now.However...great news. Hopefully that’s a light at the end of the tunnel for all us folk that’s waiting on hybrids
someone on the Facebook group has gone from an original build date of March, and then to August once the war began. His latest update on Friday was now a delay until November!
Had confirmation that mine has arrived at dealer and on for Thursday collection

Mine has now gone back from status 10 - estimated build week 21, to status 00 - order received - no production planned.
Stinker
good job my backup VZ2 310 has arrived at the dealers
So finally, after 8 or so months I picked mine up today, took just over 4 hours to get home, just over 200 miles, I'm knackered!! But gave me a fairly good opinion, love the car itself, but couple of things I noticed, the brake pedal fealt like I needed to press it further down for anything to happen, the adaptive cruise is frustrating and of course, the screen happened to reboot just when I needed directions of the M40 or M42, which was a pain in the you know what! Think it also reverted to guest as well, think it was due to my phone being plugged in and on the wireless charger!?
Anyway enough rambling!! Haven't taken many pics so here's one!!

Yeah, true, but the volume wheel on the steering wheel, unless you have a passenger that wants to adjust, I did actually use the voice control and said I'm cold, seemed to work (I know not to everyone's taste) managed a respectful 52.3 mpg out of 200 miles and I wasn't being eco warrior, as just wanted to get home in the end!!
I need to see some pics of yours!!

Also silly question, what brand tyres have you got on yours, I got Nexens on mine, not really sure how good they're!?

Picked it up at 2, only done about 40 miles so far, spent ages getting to know the infotainment system rather than driving!
And yes Nexen on mine, was expecting Bridgestone as all my other SEATS have had those.

Oh right same sort of time!! Yeah I sat in mine for a bit yesterday evening have a little look, have you checked what version yours is? Mine is 1890 so not the latest 1896, annoyingly, not sure when I'll have time to get that booked in for (if it' takes 5 hours like I've heard)Picked it up at 2, only done about 40 miles so far, spent ages getting to know the infotainment system rather than driving!

Actually my 2 year old Skoda that goes today came with Nexens too.

Just changed summer tyres to the Leon (I collected my Seat in in later November 2021, waiting 12 months for it). My summer tyres (the factory tyres) are Bridgestone Turanza T005 with the factory wheels. So Bridgestones are (were?) still possibility from Seat.
The Winter tyres on the picture are Nokian R3 (studless winter tyre) on Dezent TR Black wheels. More of those from the video linked below:

Hey, guys!
I ordered the Leon eHybrid in early Dec 2021.
I was given a delivery estimate for June 2022. The dealership was supposed to inform me about the build week in April. I contacted them many times, and they say there are delays due to the war and wire harness shortage, and they can't even give me an estimate of the build week, or how long the delay might be.
Is there a way to contact SEAT directly to (possibly) learn more? Does anyone have any confirmed information regarding how long the delays will be for the hybrid vehicles?
Also, would I be correct to assume that the factory decides the build order exclusively based on the order date, regardless of which country or dealership the car was ordered from?

Firm blames semiconductor shortage, as well as war in Ukraine, for delays
Hi there,
I ordered a Leon FR PHEV in early September ‘21, I have been in contact with SEAT UK who advise that they don’t have access to the system which gives them information about orders. When I originally ordered my dealer told me I would take delivery in December 2021- this obviously didn’t happen…..
It’s mid May and I still don’t even have a build date. It’s just a waiting game unfortunately. I’ve asked my dealer about delivery times when compared to order date - he said it varies from model to model which is understandable. Not really helpful to those customers that are waiting though…
