Qashqai Model: Mk.3 Qashqai - J12 (2021+) New Model

Not good news ... because of chip shortages the market inroduction of the new QQ J12 model seems to be delayed until July.

I read that delivery of the demo cars to dealers was already delayed from beginning of June to the third week of June, but now it seems it may take another month according to Pegasus (?) :

This would of course surely involve the "Premiere Editions" as well, but now I wonder about all other trims like Tekna+ ... !?

Pegasus wrote in the "Bestell- und Lieferthread J12" thread over at the German QQ forum (dunno whether this also affects the UK and/or other markets though, hopefully not of course) :
"Der Marktstart hat sich nun um ein Monat verzögert, aufgrund der Misere der Halbleiter-Knappheit. Die verkauften Fahrzeuge natürlich ebenfalls um ein Monat, also voraussichtlich erst im Juli."

I expect my Nissan dealer to let me know ... one way or the other.

No relief is expected ... this year 5 million less vehicles will be produced worldwide because of chip shortages :
