    Test drive before 2H25.....maybe?

    Your quote, “The entire Gravity release schedule has been a colossal failure,” completely resonates with me. While they may have surpassed expectations with Gravity orders, I’m curious to know how many orders Lucid might have for the Gravity pre-orders.

    Anyone else encounter a strange tear in seat upholstery?

    My driver seat was replaced due to this leather tearing design issue. However I noticed the tear within 2-3 weeks of ownership and reported to the VA studio.

    "Announced CEO transition..." Rawlinson out as CEO

    That’s a fair statement on your part. I’m delighted to hear that your experience with Lucid is vastly superior to mine. I’ve mentioned in previous posts that I enjoy the driving experience, but with five service shop visits and three mobile appointments in just ten months of my 18-month lease...

    "Announced CEO transition..." Rawlinson out as CEO

    I’m not trying to be negative, but I’m being honest about my experience and the experiences of three other current lucid lease owners (two of them are friends) who are also planning to return the car once the lease ends later this year. I haven’t denied the fact that it’s one of the best cars to...

    "Announced CEO transition..." Rawlinson out as CEO

    @californiaboy935 Your reaction is totally fair. I’ve had this car for 11 months now - deep into an 18-month lease - and trust me, I have really tried to like it. I wanted to love it. I wanted to be that person who says, “Oh, you just don’t get it!” But after five plus trips to the shop, a few...

    "Announced CEO transition..." Rawlinson out as CEO

    Let’s see what the next few quarters bring to the table. I’m anticipating maybe 2-3k gravity deliveries this year which will not make a dent to the overall forecast.

    Should be more than 50% returns on the lease. I intend to return my lease two months before its expiration in Mid October. Good riddance!

    "Announced CEO transition..." Rawlinson out as CEO

    Yes. I have met him at the Tyson’s Flagship studio. I’m a big fan of his work and his vision but this definitely seems like a mix of everything together. Lucid has failed consistently with the initial targets and other promises over the years in terms of car launches, scaling, mass production...

    "Announced CEO transition..." Rawlinson out as CEO

    Doubling from 5k to 10k is not the same path to 20k….especially 1st quarter is almost 2/3rds gone and no sign of gravity anywhere for even a test drive. Let’s revisit this topic end of 2nd quarter with the sales numbers.

    "Announced CEO transition..." Rawlinson out as CEO

    How do they expect to produce and sell 20,000 vehicles in 2025 per the guidance today, when they’ve barely delivered 50 Gravity units, mostly to so called friends and family? The Air market is already capped at 10,000–12,000 unless they resort to heavy discounts. Given the slow ramp-up for...

    Lease Ending - Buy or Upgrade to 2025?

    When deciding whether to buy your 2023 Air or lease a 2025 model, consider the residual value in your current lease agreement—Lucid may offer a lower buyout price upon negotiation. Compare the cost of leasing or buying the 2025 model, especially if it includes upgrades like a heat pump and...

    Mobile Connector Flashes Red

    Exactly - Mobile connector to wall outlet first and then the cable adapter to the car

    Mobile Connector Flashes Red

    I've noticed this issue when charging with the Lucid mobile connector at a friend or family member's house using a standard 110V outlet. It’s usually caused by a loose or faulty outlet. The workaround is to switch to a different outlet or disconnect the mobile connector, charging cable, and car...

    OTA Update 2.6.0

    Great job, Team Lucid! Another hefty dose of robustness with this massive, groundbreaking update. Can't wait for the inevitable flood of forum complaints about what this "latest and greatest" release has broken this time. Keep 'em coming, folks!

    Electrify America charging free?

    Lucid and bugs go together like software and hardware issues - no surprise after 11 months of ownership and "the robust" bug updates. The email says Feb 5th is when the promotional EA charging ends, but that’s where things get really confusing.
