Thanks for the detailed feedback.
My test drive is on Saturday, May 24th.
Given your experience, I'll visit the showroom on Thursday or Friday morning to experiment with the UI, Seats, and other stuff.
These are the top five from GGT Reservation Tracker Stats. Lines up with test drive locations.
Booked mine for Saturday, May 24th.
Cali = 47
NY/NJ = 18

Texas = 11
This part stands out for me:
"...and the third is in the SUV category. That’s where we’ll have the biggest departure from what you know today as Lucid."
Very exciting; I wonder what he means.
For those wheels, definitely WITH covers.
If I were to get an Air, I'd go for Aero Sport Stealth wheels (wish Gravity had these as an option). They look great, with or without covers.
Same tire width across all wheel options explains why the range penalty isn't that bad.
However, the Gravity DE would still need larger wheels to prevent excessive wheel spin due to increased torque. Larger diameter wheels help distribute the load more effectively over longer tire patch - the...
Dream Edition probably has only 21/22 and 22/23 wheel options because of the higher torque considerations. Larger wheels also tend to be wider to increase the contact patch to improving grip and traction resulting from higher torque.
And as we all know, this also increases rolling resistance...
