The shortage isnt because they are selling well, it’s because of the global semiconductor shortage. basically during the pandemic auto companies cancelled their semi conductor orders – the companies that make them then re-jigged to other industries (a rejig costs millions). Now the car manufacturers are in the doo doo. dont let the rep tell you that it’s because they are so popular (although they are popular can you really see the chinese not making enough of them? this aint dagenham)
Add to this the fire in the biggest semiconductor manufacturer in the world where the factory burned down earlier this year and you have a serious problem.
