BERLIN – Volkswagen will delay the launch of its ID5 battery-electric car by a month because of disruptions in the supply of wire harnesses from Ukraine, a company spokesperson said.
The ID5’s sales launch has been pushed to the first week of May because of disruptions in the supply disruption, a VW spokesperson said.
The lack of supply meant that the automaker was unable to produce enough exhibition and demonstration vehicles for all its dealerships, according to a letter to dealerships seen by Automotive News sister publication Automobilwoche.
