Picked up my first Lucid, a Gravity Touring in Supernova Bronze on Yosemite, on Halloween. The lease on my 2023 Ioniq 5 Limited ended this month and I wanted to get ahead of it. My first choice was the Ioniq 9 Calligraphy, but none available in the entire country. I was going to fall back on the Kia EV9 GT-Line, but every dealer just seemed scummy and scammy, so Lucid it was. I did have an invite to order a Rivian R2 and it was in serious contention, but Lucid lease deals were so much better.
The process was overall very easy with little friction the entire way. Was so nice being able to purchase the car without leaving the house. I ordered one with the Studio Select discount and was limited with what was available, but the Bronze/Yosemite was my preferred color combo and luckily there was one with that color combo available. I was able to get the Comfort and Convenience Package, Power Package, and Tow Package as well. The C&C and power were the only ones I felt were needed but having the tow capability was nice. I test drove one with the Dynamic Handling package and, while 2 weeks between, I don't see enough difference that I needed it, but it would have been nice. I find the sound is fine and a little better than the Bose system in my Ioniq 5 and I have an audiophile setup at home if I want to do critical listening.
The only hiccup we had was the transport company cancelling twice. I am in the Nashville area and the closest Studio is Roswell, GA, about 4 hours away. After the cancelled Thursday and Friday, I just told our advisor that I would drive to Atlanta and pickup. I was able to arrange a lease turn in at the Hyundai dealership about 2 miles from the Studio, our advisor picked us up, and we went through the delivery process there. That was better than the phone call and virtual setup anyway. They are also getting me a $500 accessories credit for the "trouble".
Looking forward to more seat time and hopefully meeting fellow owners in the middle TN area and NW FL when we move there.
