Aww geez, it looks like I still have a long ways to go then. I ordered 1/24, my config locked 3/28, it started gearing up for production 4/6, and 4/20 it went into production. I was hoping for late June. Looks like I will be lucky to be late August at this point. Galaxy Blue Premium Plus.

I wonder if mine is taking as long as it is because I ordered rear side airbags and lighted seat belt buckles? Otherwise, it is pretty standard. Prestige, Cold Weather, Typhoon Gray.

Reservation confirmed - December 4, 2019
Review your configuration - March 6, 2019
Configuration locked - March 28, 2019
Gearing up for production - April 3, 2019
In production - May 15, 2019

I received an email from AudiReservation@audi.com advising me that my e-tron estimated delivery date is 16-18 weeks from the date of the email - May 13, 2019

I also ordered rear side airbags and lighted seat belt buckles. The website was corrected to reflect that fact again. Prestige, Cold Weather, Manhattan Gray Metallic

I am jealous of all of you guys. I locked on March 28 and I’ve been stuck in gearing up production for over a month. No news.

p.s. Ordered on 10/6/18.

That sucks. I cannot find a pattern to this process. I am in the Chicagoland area, maybe geography makes a difference?

The shortage of batteries is likely contributing to this. There are a lot of e trons available on cars.com, but they're asking >$89K for most of them!

Last week I made an extensive search within 204 miles (;-) of my home in Massachusetts for canceled e-tron deliveries hoping to find a Galaxy Blue Prestige. I found ten Edition One's, one Prestige and one Premium Plus. The large number of E1s could be a function of their early delivery but it sure looks like these are widely available which cannot be said for the other trims.

I think you're correct about the E1's. I would think that all 999 of them are in the US and have been delivered or will be delivered in the next few weeks or so, and the non-E1's (other than the dealer demo units) seem to be just starting to trickle into dealerships.
