USA/Canada Delivery Thread

[Econ]

Does anyone have a 3/30 arrival car that made it to their dealer? Mine was on that arrival to Baltimore but Manhattan Lotus still has no idea where it is. Odd

From my 2024 window sticker (V6 Manual):
US/Canadian Parts Content: 10%
Major source of foreign content: UK 35%
Engine: Japan
Transmission: Japan
Note: Parts content does not include final assembly, distribution, or other non parts costs
Final Assembly point: Lotus, Hethel, UK

Very interesting. What parts are you getting that are from US/Canada? And there’s obviously a lot of Chinese parts from the Geely bin (switchgear etc). Are they doctoring the stickers?

I have no idea what parts are from US/Canada, but not surprised ,the US/Canada has a massive auto industry and auto parts suppliers.. I highly doubt there is any "doctoring" of the sticker, I would presume the penalty would be massive, that and this sticker is over a year ago - to what purpose would they doctor it then. My wife's 2024 Volvo XC 90 is 35% Sweden and 20% Finland - what parts are they getting from Finland?

Depends on where you're located and the availability of car transporters It may take up to3-4 weeks for your car to arrive at the dealership on the West Coast

Yea im in nyc, a few of the 3/27 cars arrived at my nyc dealer on 3/30. Unfortunately mine was on the 3/30 arrival Perhaps the port just got backed up ahead of tariff noise

I had a car due in May - but ended up changing to get ahead of Tarrifs. I believe the car was on the 3/30 boat.

My dealer told me that Lotus had an issue with the software at the port - but that vehicles were off the boat and wouldn’t be affected by tarrifs. That’s the latest I’ve heard.

There are still several new on Dealer lots that you should be able to lease, even out of state.

My car was apparently made in April. Locked in ordered Feb 2025. Dealer's last update on VINs was April 29th no VIN reported yet. Car is apparently supposed to be here mid-June.

Where is everyone going to compare VIN's to what ship they are on.

Canada cars end up in Baltimore along with the US cars.

Thanks

I've compiled all of the VINs I could find for the US and Canadian Emira shipments. What's missing is that I could only find 99 of the 150 VINs for the first shipment dated 12/1/2023. So this list is incomplete. This list will be updated as new shipments arrive.

Is there anywhere we can see what was shipped in April and so far in May?

 

[UCLAFC]

My understanding is no shipments have come in since tariffs. My build was locked/submitted November, in production start of March. I was hoping to be on one of the boats that got in before tariffs but doesn’t seem to be the case. Prob just sitting across the pond waiting for the details of the new 10% tariff deal. I’m wondering if that will be passed on to us or absorbed by lotus though the latter is unlikely.

Good news. Was there a price hike? Much?

 

[UCLAFC]

No way, mines not there, skipped from 10939 to 10941. Hopefully next boat, fingers crossed.

 

[tritzenthaler]

There was no price hike on my Emira.
