UX 3.0 Update

hmp10 said:
I had decided not to do the chip upgrade on our 2022 Air, but I've become so pleased with the UX 3.0 in our Gravities (now that most of the software bugs have finally been rooted out) that I'm now thinking I'll proceed to upgrade the Air.

But I wonder . . . will it fix the intermittent failure of the driver massage seat and the driver-side rearview mirror that sometimes spontaneously folds inward?

Both these things started shortly after the 4-year leg of the warranty expired, and I've given up hoping that Lucid will offer an extended warranty program. We still love driving the Air, but if these failures continue to accumulate we'll start the countdown for an interesting EV convertible to hit the market. I wonder if the Genesis project with the Lucid powertrain is dead?

BTW, this isn't really meant to be a slam at Lucid durability. I would never drive a German car without an extended warranty, as the speed at which they can generate post-warranty feature failures can be astonishing.

I don't think it'll impact those specific issues, but I also don't know how the controls for those items are routed.

Would be worth asking your service advisor or local service center.

As for my upgrade, went well and on the long commute home noticed that Android Auto started having audio clipping / popping issues after about an hour and a half in the commute. Not sure if that was related to my phone overheating or the CCCv2 overheating. I did stop to charge and get dinner, and by the time I was done with both and on my way home it was fine and was fine this morning as well. It also took me an embarrassingly long time to find the brightness slider to tone down the brightness hah.

I received the UX update to my Air yesterday.

I have to say ... I absolutely hate it. There's way more gradient bloom everywhere, particularly the upper right screen. Whatever color is in the "Vibes" section gets blown across the left side of the map, and overall the screens are much brighter, no matter what I do to try and tone it down. I just want to go back to the more toned-down display I used to have.

Really hoping they update "vibes" to be less obnoxious with less gradient bloom overall. Ideally a customization option.

I completely agree. Put in a request to [email protected]. I did. I asked for a way to turn it down considerably or off completely. From my experience at the software feedback event at Lucid headquarters on September 17, they do listen.

Man you would hate my BMW then 😂
 
Installed 2.11 last night. The new UI 3.0 is slick but requires a new learning curve. It also requires the CCV2 electronics board for 2022 and 2023 Air sedans.

It took 10 minutes of fiddling to figure out how to return to the Lucid home screen on the driver's display once CarPlay has been active. The only way I found to do this is to open the Lucid CarPlay app, which instantly changes the driver's right side display to the Lucid Home screen. From there, clicking on the running CarPlay tile returns you to full screen CarPlay.

I have yet to locate the screen brightness control that used to be on the vehicle display on the Pilot Panel. Please let me know if you find it!

Brightness is on the pull-down on the pilot panel. Pull down from the top. The CarPlay button on the top is a toggle. Tap on. Tap off.

Which is why I think Lucid needs to be upfront as to what’s coming and what’s not.

They probably don’t want to overpromise and I wouldn’t put any dates out for new features. That makes everyone go crazy when updates not released when promised.

They should just continue to improve and surprise everyone!

I will not be paying 1K for the new chip. MY 2022 AGT works just fine as is. I plan on keeping my Lucid for another 12-18 months so I don't see the cost benefit of upgrading to the new chip for my remaining time frame. At present I would like to replace my AGT with a smaller car. I am looking at looking at three scenarios. 1. A new AGT with rear wheel steering to shorten the turning diameter. 2. A Cosmos Dream edition or 3. A BMW electric M3. Will await to see which of the three I choose as more info is revealed.

I have a 2026 X7 and I find the new Lucid UX a lot more washed out with gradient bloom than the BMW UX.
 
On the release note it says Android Auto will fill up the entire screen. However, after my Lucid Air UX 3.0 update, Android Auto still the same size. Is that what everyone is experiencing?

Yeah AA is still bordered up until Google releases the restriction. It was mentioned in previous post that AA going to full screen wouldn't need Lucid's intervention and only an update to AA. Lucid seemed to have removed all the borders and extra paddings in preparation for it. That's my speculation.

I’m in the same situation, 2023 AWD Pure, just waiting on when the Cosmo comes out. It would be nice if Lucid takes reservation, just like the Rivian R2, made the reservation couple years ago. I haven’t decide if I should go with R2, Rivian sent me an email about 2 months ago, to configure.

I have a 2023 Lucid Air and I paid the $950 for the hardware upgrade about a year ago. I received the prompt to upgrade to UX 3.0 (otherwise known as version 2.11) today and just completed the upgrade. The new User Interface looks much nicer and more advanced than the previous version. I like it a lot! The only issue I've had so far is with Sirius XM; I can't find artist stations when I do a search. But the Sirius XM implementation may be independent of the Lucid update.

Gotta love it! I am leasing a 2024 Air Pure until July 2027 and accordingly I do not get the UX 3.0 unless I pay the $950.00 plus applicable taxes for the hardware upgrade too (eventually). This strengthens my conviction that leasing is better than buying at this point as you don't want to get stuck with old technology and that will especially be true when SSB come into production or they up the 100% EPA range new. So I am definitely not going to pay the $$ to get the UX 3.0, what I got is fine and since I don't know what 3.0 will get me it is only cocktail bragging talk at the next party. "Oh I have the UX 3.0 on my Lucid." Wahoo! So I wonder how that works for Lucid. Now you have 2022-2024 leases that people probably will not pay the $$ for the hardware for 3.0 so they have to eat the hardware cost to sell the car down the road? Or do they make me (dare I say this) pay to do the hardware upgrade?

I think I stand corrected. I installed 2.11 and 3.0 and later in this thread someone posted their UX 3.0 interface and mine looks just like his less Android and Sirius XM, which I need to revisit. So the 2024 Air does not need the hardware upgrade, from what I can see. Cool!
 
No update yet on my 2025 Pure but interestingly, I haven't received the email about UX3.0 either. The last email I got from Lucid was the one last week about the chef. I guess they blacklisted me for complaining about their version numbering scheme 🤣

There's a expand/zoom out button on the bottom right corner of the screen. If you click on it now, it hides the standard cockpit menu so it appears that's how you would get the full cockpit window once the new AA update is released.

It’s either Airs delivered OR manufactured after April 2024 don’t need the hardware upgrade.
 
Anyone with 19” all season tires notice on the tires section that it states the recommended tire pressure is 42 psi. Its always been 49 psi. Im wondering if this is a typo on their part?

I believe the door plate calls for 49psi. I've been keeping my 19" AS @ 49psi for almost 60k miles without a problem. And whenever I have service, they return the car @49psi.
