I totally agree with you. I’ve had mine just over a year now, and absolutely love it. Every time I get in to drive I smile. Countless thumbs-up, complements, questions from friends, neighbors, onlookers. And so far, it’s worked flawlessly with no issues. I just wish more people would buy it!

Not at all.

I heard that before but I was too lazy to take off the SunPass. In any case, neither one has fallen off, so I just leave them there.

I mounted my SunPass just to the left side of the rear view mirror, and the EZ Pass on the right side. Both of them are high up enough to be hidden behind the sun visors (you pretty much only see them when the sun visors are down) so there’s no visibility problem. In a year of driving, I’ve...

Just saw a Lucid Touring in Saks 5th Ave in Boca at Town Center Mall. They’re appearing in Saks in a number of major cities. Good P.R.! https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/saks-announces-first-ever-electric-vehicle-partnership-with-lucid-302054052.html

A Touring here in Ft Lauderdale, owned since March of 23. Love this car! And so far, it’s treated me really well, no nasty surprises, everything as hoped (Except the one time service came to my condo to repair a non-working, grinding, rear door handle. A relatively minor headache.)

No problem here in Ft Lauderdale. I also use the sunshades, they’re terrific and I recommend them. But the AC works fine. A little noisy if you increase the fan speed? Yes. But the climate in the cabin is ok. I have a Touring with glass roof, by the way.

Yes, absolutely. Wired or wireless, I notice it always happens in the same specific place here on A1A in South Florida. I’m convinced it’s some sort of external interference, but Carplay won’t restart once it disconnects. And that’s frustrating.

Have fun at your test drive! Take as much time to drive it as they offer you, the more time behind the wheel the better. Bring a list of your questions, too. PS: I suspect you’ll love it!

Roger, are you thinking of the Miami studio, which certainly is a hefty drive from Boca? Or the one in West Palm Beach, which really Isn’t very far from you? I’m in Fort Lauderdale, and have had my Touring since March 2023. I absolutely love it, but it’s a tough comparison about seat comfort...

This morning’s update to .47 took about 40 minutes, all is well. But like so many others in this thread, I’ve since gotten a message that an update to 2.1.47 is available. When I phoned CS about it, I was told to ignore the message, they’ll report it to the software team. But the message is...

My Touring just got the 2.1.43 update this evening as well. Took 5 minutes, as stated.

Fort Lauderdale

I have 19” Pirellis that came with the car, and I’m in a warm climate. I keep the tires at 49 psi as recommended, and they normally go up to around 52/53. When I drove up to North Carolina over Thanksgiving the tires seemed low, so I brought them back up to 49 cold (and it was COLD up there!)...

I posted on another thread about my (positive) Highway Assist experience over Thanksgiving. My drive was round trip Ft Lauderdale to Asheville. And my Electrify America charging experiences were, for the most part, okay. Sometimes the charger wouldn’t recognize the car and I got “Charging...
