2. It's UGLY
3. It doesn't appear to have a metal roof.
The metal roof has been the biggest obstacle against an EV for me because they're NOT safe in lightning storms, and they make it almost impossible...
I have read many complaints that the AM/FM HD radios are unreliable in the Lucid. I suspect this is probably the result of all the filtering and shielding Lucid has tried to make them work in spite of all the RFI coming off the motors. However, I found a YouTube video where an electrionics...
