Sorry to learn of your experience. I too have owned an AGT for a year and a half. It is by far the best car that I have owned, including high-end models of Porsche, Audi, MB, and BMW, where service was always exceptional. The AGT is a design and engineering marvel. It is first and foremost a...

Denver to eastern VA in late April at an average of 75 mph and 3.7 miles/kWh for ~1800 miles. Temperatures were mostly in the mid-70s. Elevation change for the trip -5,000 ft ASL. On 19" AS tires at 49 psi. No problems charging at EA stations near the Interstate. Saw only one AGT in Cosmos...

Yes, it would be nice to know what updates are ahead, but updates have been steady and have improved the overall Lucid experience for me. I am confident that Lucid is well aware of the preferences of owners. I find HA and the safety warnings sufficient to ease driving on long trips and to avoid...

My favorite feature is my AGT's dynamic capability from its brilliant suspension to its astonishing torque. Next is the optimal driver's position and seat support. There is nothing about the car that is not exceptional to me compared to any other vehicle that I have owned. It has been optimal...

Yes, that is my assumption.

I have not had any claim in years and then only a minor one with a local insurance company near Boston. No problem with a settlement. Recently moved from CO to VA and am getting quotes. The only certified Lucid repair shop in VA owner told me that USAA settled claims efficiently. Amica quote was...

Great writeup. I have not driven a Touring, only my AGT and a few AGT loaners. No squeaks or rattles. A useful perspective on CarPlay reliability., as I experience repeated CarPlay malfunctions and shutdowns. This is after several Bobby CarPlay reset procedures. 10/22 build. Nearly daily Air...

I just drove 1900 miles from Co to VA using Highway Assist with my left hand on the wheel at 9 o'clock and my elbow resting on the door armrest for most of the time with no problem. Of course, the right hand at 3:00 makes the longer segments easier to take. Yes, in narrow lanes with 18-wheelers...

Just keep at least one hand on the wheel is the fix—and the sensible safe way to drive.

Not for me. Your lengthy admonition to plan is common sense. How many 2000-mile cross-country drives have you done?

I have charged at EA for a year and a half. Authentication through the Lucid app has been required occasionally and randomly at the same charger. Locally, charging is of little concern, but on cross-country drives, it is a concern due to potentially inoperative stalls. Therefore my cross-country...

I only read the excerpt so do not know their perspective on Tesla. The Economist is often unremarkable in its opinions and just as frequently wrong. There is no guarantee that any company will survive if they do not innovate and reinvent themselves and access to capital for nascent industries is...

I agree with Bunny's recommendations. I use ABRP, the EA app and the car's nav system as well as Apple Maps for more granular directions on local roads. I have other charging apps but have not had to use them. You can order a set of 19s from Lucid with AS tires and mounting is easy with the new...

No problem with the key in a year and a half with my AGT and glitches in the infotainment system can be annoying but everything else about the car is phenomenal for me. I have to wonder if the OP has driven an AGT for more than a few minutes.

I usually drive in Swift but yesterday tried local driving in Sprint. Much better throttle response of course and firmer steering but otherwise not a big deal, even on my 19’s with sotto zeros. Obviously, turn in is suboptimal on 19’s in Sprint, but I don’t need to counter steer on local roads...
