Gravity accessories slowly appearing

[hmp10]

I don’t understand the need for this. I’ve had an X and have an R1S and neither have given me issues with heat or glare. I can always turn the AC on before I get in, as well.

They’re not necessary. That doesn’t mean they aren’t helpful. Helps save on AC for efficiency, generally makes the car more comfortable in the summer months, etc. If I lived in MD (I used to live in VA) I wouldn’t bother.

It’s just a bit of extra heat btw; not glare or anything like that. The tinting is perfectly fine; just some folks may want more.

Same here as with @borski. We had our Air with the glass canopy for a couple of years in south Florida and never had a situation where the A/C couldn't keep the cabin comfortable, even when sitting for long periods in the airport cell phone lot under bright sunshine.

We finally decided to install the mesh sunshades for a long road trip during a heat wave just so we wouldn't have to run the A/C so much. They did take a bit of glare out of the cabin while still allowing a decent view of the sky and clouds, and we were surprised by how little they made the cabin feel more "enclosed". So we just never bothered to take them out.

For GDE, you may now choose the frunk cushion liner or Timothee Chalamet as an accessory for your frunk…

Hmm; for how long? Can I still exchange after taking delivery?

Am I missing something about the way Lucid tints their cars or is this an FL, CA, AZ thing whereas I am in MD?

I'm wondering the same thing. Have had my X since 2020 and never, ever have I had an issue with excess heat or bright sunshine beyond the front of my head. Pretty dark glass behind me.

It's a function of where you live. I lived in MD and VA. Now I'm in AL. The sun and heat is different! Much more intense in some places.

I’m probably gonna get our side windows tinted today. Probably won’t do the windshield though, as I haven’t felt any heat come through that at all.

A tint on the windshield provides UV protection.

A tint on the windshield provides UV protection.

I'm pretty certain the windshield already has UV protection.

 

[borski]

A tint on the windshield provides UV protection.

Which it doesn’t need as it is already factory tinted.

Nice. Still crickets for me on the Dream Edition one.

You can shell out for this one and when one needs to be cleaned, swap them!

 

[FeelLicks]

Appreciate all your experiences and data points!

I'm a firm believer in redundancy.
Plus I have no idea if the UV protection in laminated glass would degrade over time.

I run a local instance of changedetection.io and set an alert on the all-weather mats -- I'll post here when they come in stock (after I order a set). Are there any other accessories people here would like notification on?

Windshield sunshade.
Thanks.

If anyone here has a Gravity or takes delivery soon and is in/near Minneapolis, MN, please stop by Canvasback and let them take measurements for a liner. Like others, they need something to measure from.

I have their liners in my R1S and they’re awesome.
