From my understanding, the chip shortage was caused by covid? I'm the GM for a European indy and have a pretty good relationship with my dealers. They're the ones who told me that they're getting ready to take a huge influx in cars. The cars have been sitting in the ports waiting on various modules and they're starting to roll in.
Chip shortage has been impacted by global chip demand, but isn't the core driver. Microchip demand has risen 12.5% from 2020
