I just got a call from the Lavelle Road Topline dealership. The first-in-country white NX500 has arrived at their dealership. Presently up for viewing.

Apparently, the first lot of 10 examples are expected in May.

Here is a pic shared by my sales advisor:

Thanks for this! I now have some proof to bug my dealer with to get me the white he promised!

Apparently someone in Gurgoan has taken delivery of a white NX. I saw it on the NX FB group. So yes! White has started rolling out! And more importantly, there is no separate launch of the white as one of the poster has posted!

I hope what you are saying is true. My dealer has no visibility and still calls white a separate launch by May end. Spoke to one more dealer in Bangalore and he said that they do not have any bikes coming in anytime soon. From the looks of it delivery of my booking can happen only by aug. This is also a guesstimate.
Dealers are sounding helpless.

I 100% saw a white being taken delivery in Gurgoan. This is on the NX 500 FB page. And then the post above. So i am guessing it has started. To what extent, I don't know.

All dealers across India have lots of booking but very few deliveries till date. I am sure dealers are keen on starting deliveries en masse as that's how they can make money.

Fingers crossed. I am guessing the situation should normalize in a month or tow

Is this a booked bike waiting for delivery?

Seeing the white in these photos, red looks better to me now. Maybe it is the angle of photo, but looks a little too bland.

Really? I was at Bigwing Saidapet today and I was told that the first bike, a black one, is up for delivery for tomorrow!

Is this Bigwing Adyar you are talking about?

Exactly.

It looks like they have done the delivery for a customer who is almost 60th in the booking list, bypassing delivery order.

Oh my! That’s not good! But i doubt they will do something like that. Because word gets out immediately and that’s just bad PR for the showroom.

But yes, awful if true!

Anyone with any updates on the availability of the white? Sales reps are only saying that they are seeing a lot of cancellations due to non delivery and do not have any visibility on when the bikes will arrive.
Meanwhile I did receive a call from a diff dealer asking if I wanted the black and its available for immediate delivery. I declined.
