In your video there was a graphic on the left side of the cockpit display that looked like some sort of efficiency graph. What was it?

it’s a range graph showing what you could get for range if you drive gently vs aggressively -> basically helping you tune your driving style to be more efficient - the bolt has something similar!

Any mention of when you will get to drive an actual production car?

Your comment on the unfinished software freaked me out. It's the biggest problem with Airs too.

From your behind the scenes discussions, is there anything more you can share on 400V charging speed? The 50kW DC to DC boost in the Air makes the Tesla super charger network almost useless. You hinted at Gravity being more but can you share more?

Nope but you know I’ll be trying ASAP - really hoping software / ADAS is dialed

Lucid said we’d hear more on the charging capabilities on low voltage DC chargers early next year

I can guarantee you that the NACS / J3400 units will charge way faster than 50kW - what that means exactly, idk yet

The Euro / Saudi cars with front charge port location will stick with wonderbox boosting and I guess will have the same limits to air

David mentioned in the Motortrend review with Alex that they felt they needed to do one more software update to dial-in things before deliveries...

Any idea what the wheel bolt pattern is? Thx!

I thought it was a very good review. Your concern call ours were some of mine as well. (Also thank you for calling out that turn signal sound. I thought I was the only one it was annoying). More convinced this therigh5 next car for me. Hoping they get the software sorted and charging works smoothly

Welcome Kyle.

I have made a separate thread as a AMA.

Thanks for being here and answering some forum member questions.

All of us too! LOL!

How big is the third-row seating? Compared to the other three-row EVs?

 

[SaratogaLefty]

Kyle, can you share any more info on the V2H/V2G capabilities and how soon?

We all have our obsessions and I admit this is my top want for my Lucid.

Great to see you here on the forums! Still really eager to hear more about the charging peformance and explore the software and ADAS features on a production car. Was there any mention of adapters being offered at some point for Gravity or Air?

It's not like there's a TON of room in the 3rd row but I can fit comfortably - I can in Kia EV9 as well. Really need to re-do our EV SUV comparisons next year with so many new ones coming on the market around now

It didn't sound like any major announcements other than the expected AC bidirectional up to 80A AC through NACS as well as V2V through RangeXChange

Should have asked them about adapters because there's no official automaker supported 1,000V CCS -> NACS adapter yet (the ones Tesla use are only 500V max) that would allow this vehicle to interface on public CCS chargers yet... they also don't have supercharger access so how should a Gravity owner DCFC and stay in compliance of automaker recommendations? Not sure...
