Correct. Tempe had hoped to open it last fall, but the cars are manufactured in Pennsylvania and there were COVID delays in getting all the cars built and delivered. It takes a few months to test the cars and train the drivers.
The Sky Train extension is also supposed to open this year, but Sky Harbor hasn't given an official date yet. I would expect it to be sometime in the summer since all the construction has been completed and they're now in the testing phase for the new tracks and stations.
