So I have good news now! The Sales Admin from Gyro Hyundai sent an email a couple days back which reads, in part:
"Your 2019 Kona EV Preferred in blue with Two-Tone roof is currently at the port in Vancouver where it will be loaded onto a train and railed to Toronto. Once it lands, it will be loaded onto a transport truck destined for Gyro Hyundai. We should expect to see the vehicle on our lot within 3-4 weeks. "
She goes on to give me a heads-up on the VIN so I can get some insurance set up. Now I feel confident enough to contract for some exterior electrical work at my house, which has to happen before I can get a Level 2 charger, as well.
I'm pretty happy with the timing -- if I get a vehicle by the end of July, having test-driven and ordered near the end of April, I think electric vehicles can begin to build up momentum in the marketplace.
