Anybody heard 50e stopped manufacturing?

A broker told me that 50e has stopped manufacturing due to a battery issue. No ETA for the problem fix. Orders can still be placed but might need to wait for a longer time.

Welcome to the forum. You can ignore the broker.

Production of the 50e has been limited for a few months due to a supply chain issue but it has not been stopped.

That's somewhat a good news. Was hesitating on this model if there's a battery issue. Seems the production will take ~4 months whatsoever.

There are quite a few issues with the 50e but they are not the reason for the limited production.
