Due to the war in Ukraine several car manufacturers are forced to stop production due to shortage of parts produced in Ukraine. BMW, VW, Audi and Porsche are having parts shortage. BMW are stoping production in Dingolfing where all iX are being produced

Specifically relates to the supply of wiring harnesses which are obviously crucial components. Scaling production at alternative sites in other countries would require 3 to 6 months. BMW and VW are particularly hard hit since they don’t stockpile the harnesses. Instead they are delivered on-demand.

It looks like the situation is much worse than first anticipated. BMW stop in production is for at least one week but probably much longer.

Looks like they've started again: https://www.reuters.com/business/aut...ts-2022-03-09/
So maybe it'll just be a two week delay. |
