The real story is in the statistics. But who really knows that. BMW's don't appear perfect according to google.

I keep hearing the phrase " XYZ vehicle achieves the claimed milage". Obviously, LUCID has chosen to copy the Tesla model. But if the consumer is just focused on that, it is a pretty easy engineering formula. Pile battery cells into the car and low ball the range. It could not b e more...

Yeah, clearly highlighting that novel breakthrough German engineering of a bigger gas tank.

144kwh battery. Good grief. Taking the lead from GMs hummer tactics.

Fiasco?

Around my area, lucids are only spotted at the EA station. And rarely. There was 3 of us at the station one evening about a month ago. I wouldn’t believe it if I didn’t see it.

Anyone know if a loss of AC bricks the car? It didn’t occur to me until this thread that may be the case since it cools he battery.

We need the part number from the original poster. I’m now curious if I have the same PN. If this becomes more problematic, I wonder if a preemptive replacement would save all the other AC system components from needing replacement.

Ahh, got it. That’s been my plan with a ‘23 air as well. This is where non OEM repair is needed. $5500 for an AC compressor is ridiculous. And that’s an item I would expect to not fail at all. I have cars over 20 years old with a completely original and functional AC system.

You also have a failed AC compressor?

I specified 19” tires when I purchased 3 years ago. I also wanted to maximize efficiency and robustness for New England roads. For the past 17k miles my average is 4.04 miles per KWh. At 27k when tread depth was checked, I had 7/32 of the 9/32 when new. That’s darn good in my book.

I’ll admit my ticket expired, but just renewed it before the grace period ran out. I don’t see an install into the air anytime soon. Maybe an HT.

I took my car in for annual service. That should help move the price up when revenue is reported. 😀

I thought there would be at least a 2nd thread by now…..

EA was selected. I checked!
