For Germany dealers are generally expecting a delivery time of one month so Romania probably won't be too different, maybe a week more. Sometimes it gets stuck in customs though, which could add between 1-4 weeks.

I spoke with the dealer today and he told me that although the car has been produced since April 11, it is still in the port waiting to be loaded on the ship to Europe, and he told me that it will arrive in the first half of June

From what I know, the transport to Europe takes 8,9 days. The delivery date told by my dealer is the first half of June

I don't know more. I even asked the dealer if he could tell me a ship name or a ship registration number but he said he didn't know

Tks!
maybe on this transport is my car, although the dealer was not able to tell me the name of the ship. does anyone know if there is a fixed car transport route to Europe? eg Charleston - Southampton or Charleston - Bremerhaven???

Can we still track shipment with the VIN? With my 45e in 2020 I was able to track the transport with Wallenius Wilhelmsen. Car was shipped to Germany in Germany loaded on another ship to Zeebrugge

I have an update. the car was unloaded in Bremerhaven, Germany (I don't know the exact date but they communicated this to me on May 11) and just today I received another update that the car is in Schwertberg, Austria from where it will go directly to Bucharest, RO. The new delivery date is around June 10th, although I don't understand why it's taking so long considering the distance it still has to travel is about 1200 km (570 miles)
