    Yearly service

    I had mobile service done at home. Tire rotation was included. I was explicitly told when Lucid showed what would be done, and tire rotation was mentioned. The person arrived in an Air so no special equipment was needed.

    OTA Update 2.7.0

    Additionally, while my car is still not waking up, I can see that it downloaded 17.9GB of data yesterday, which is presumably the update. If it can handle that, I don't think the minuscule amount of data related to communication with the app would be an issue.

    OTA Update 2.7.0

    I don't think that signal strength is the issue. I have a mesh system with a pod in my garage and have very strong WiFi in my garage. I've been out of town for as long as I've known about the update and my car has been "waking up" for as long as I've known about the update. I don't know whether...

    OTA Update 2.6.0

    I can't be 100% sure, but I've been in the situation where I went to charge at EA with no problem, opened up the app and couldn't track the charging process because the car was offline. It's theoretically possible that the car wasn't offline when the charging started but it seems unlikely.

    Electrek likes the Lucid Air as its "Model S Alternative"

    The frunk on the Model S had (or perhaps still has) a "frunk crease" problem that was caused by not closing the frunk per instructions. There were no such instructions when the problem first appeared. I don't know whether later model years would end up with a creased frunk if you use one hand...

    Electrek likes the Lucid Air as its "Model S Alternative"

    I have an S from 2014. I watched Tesla shrink the frunk when they added AWD. Then I watched them do it again when they added HEPA. That left very little volume in the frunk. While I appreciate the volume in my Model S, and the fact that I could remove the parcel shelf to get something taller...

    Electrek likes the Lucid Air as its "Model S Alternative"

    In situations like these, my standard answer is to tell people to try both/all. I can rave about a car all I want, but there's no way for anybody to measure my objectivity. Bugs aren't something that will show up on a test drive though, and I think that Lucid has far too many...unless I have...

    Electrek likes the Lucid Air as its "Model S Alternative"

    You don't need to convince anyone here, and many of us are longtime Model S owners. The Model S is still a good car but even before Musk went off the deep end, I still put down my deposit for a Lucid. By the time I got the Lucid, I would have bought it over the S anyway, but I might have at...

    Adapter needed for Tesla Supercharger

    It's confusing because Tesla says that. Lucid is listed as compatible in a few places. If you take the Tesla app, add an Air as another vehicle and then add a Gravity, many Superchargers show up as available, without anything saying anything about which car it's available for. I don't have an...

    Confirmed: Android Auto coming this fall!

    That raises an interesting question. If they released an actual beta, not something simply labeled beta as is all too common these days for buggy software, it might work for some people. With real beta programs, there are NDAs, expectations that users will test certain things as directed, and...

    Tired of lack of Android support

    It's frustrating that it's not there. Whether or not it's a big deal comes down to the individual car owner. It's completely understandable why it might cost them sales. Personally, I can wait. But I had an early reservation and didn't buy the Air until a bit over a year ago, when they finally...

    NACS Megathread

    So am I, although I don't know how much I really need one. I did find myself in an area with Superchargers recently, with no CCS nearby. But I didn't need a charge. I recently took a 700+ mile trip up to the Sierras. I don't want to get into a long story, but my brother in law was there with his...

    RESOLVED Android Auto Thursday

    More than 88% of today's teenagers won't be teenagers in 30 years. 30 years ago, 0% of teenagers used smartphones. I don't think any of that is predictive. I will, however, predict that AA in the Lucid will take less than 30 years.

    RESOLVED Android Auto Thursday

    If we take the part about it normally taking six months but could take longer, with the part about Google and Lucid needing to agree to terms, with the part about Lucid expecting it in September, with the part about them expecting it before September, the implication is that things were...

    RESOLVED Android Auto Thursday

    The problem isn't scheduling. The problem is meeting the schedule. I'm not trying to pass blame, but scheduling won't help if they don't have full control of things.
