Thanks for both your updates DO. I agree with you that regen braking has been dialed back. I look forward to testing the (lack of) off ramp jerkiness for myself. BTW I had the identical experience with you on the tires and tire pressure. Before I bought it they switched my vehicle to 19's but...

That's great news. That issue really annoyed me (and scared my passengers).

[Update on my ratings for Lucid Aid Drive Automation technology: Now B+] For those have been following along, my ratings on this category have been jumping around quite a bit over the last year. I’m happy to report that, with the last software update (v 2.8.7) the usability of Hands-Free Drive...

With the 2.8.0 update, Lucid Airs with Dream Drive Pro finally get full hands-free driving mode in certain situations. Below is my review of this system. (Note: I am driving a 2025 Lucid Air GT.) Please post your own detailed reviews or comments. Summary: Great in light traffic, more dicey in...

Unfortunately, in California, when you put power back in the grid you get paid ~20% of the rate that you get charged when you pull from the grid. So it's not a fair trade.

I have the 80 amp Lucid charger as well. And I also have a large solar array on my house but no batteries yet. Normally my meter runs backward but when I plug my Lucid in at the 80 amp draw I am taking a lot of power off the grid. If I am not in a rush to charge I am way better off to charge at...

I really hope it's not simply just removing the requirement to torque the wheel every now and then. The inherent capability to keep the vehicle centered in the lane is WAY below industry standards these days. I have had MANY instances where my passengers got scared from something the vehicle...

I I love my 2025 GT. And I agree 100% with your analysis. More details on my reasons why can be found on my Lucid Air site: https://lucidair.info

My understanding is that this is not just a software upgrade, but that there are actually more physical speakers in SSP cars. A Lucid rep told me this but perhaps someone can confirm.

Me too. Very disturbing to passengers. But it keeps me awake!

Not sure but I did my test drives out of Newark HQ in a 2023 GT (to purchase my 2025 GT). So they have them somehow. Perhaps they were employee cars.

Agreed 100%. #1 and #2 are normal Lucid behavior (unfortunately). The others are unusual and not frequently reported (if ever, and I have been following the forums closely for six months).

Thanks HC! In the end, I decided to close the group. My message below: Folks! My original motivation for starting this Group was because - unfortunately - the popular [Facebook] Lucid Owners Club has become over-focused on congratulating and complimenting Lucid, seemingly to boost the stock. I...

I have come to the conclusion that Drive Assist on 2 lane highways is at the very least scary and probably even dangerous. In my experience, as long as the lanes stay clean and uninterrupted (like they are mostly on a freeway), then no problem. But once the lines get broken for any reason (an...
