That would be good, yes. But no, on 75% capacity used I typically get 220-250 miles. Breaking 300 miles is extremely rare for me. And on road trips I drive with relatively slow acceleration, always use the stronger regenerative braking. But I do go 75-80 mph which is a killer on range.

I own a 2022 Lucid Dream Edition, and much of what was said on this video echoes my experience. But as others have said, the OTA updates have greatly improved the vehicle. And in my case, a total of 5 times the car needed to be towed to the nearest Lucid Service Center about 200 miles away for...

As much as I love to drive my Lucid DE Range, I have too many vehicles, can really use the $$, and prefer ICE vehicles for road trips. Perfect condition. Eureka Gold. #137 out of 520 sold. I replaced the OEM 21" wheels/tires with these color matching 19" wheels. I made the change to get...

I am selling a Gold 2022 Lucid DE with 11K miles for $89,900. See my listing on cars.com. Fantastic car. I just get range anxiety for the many road trips I take, so am keeping my Mercedes S560 for those trips...

I tried, asking specifically that the frunk latches be replaced to see if that solved the problem. The tech who came to my home said no adjustments were necessary, and his boss, the head of the Coldwater Michigan Service Center agreed. So they claim there is nothing they can do, leaving it to...

I know, I apologize Bobby. I'm just so frustrated that Lucid is abandoning me with respect to the frunk/carwash issue. You answered my concern, where I posted a video of what happenned the 2nd time, but it did not solve the problem. I'm convinced it is a software issue, and the tech who came...

Everything you report here is my experience exactly. I wonder if many other owners have strangers come up and ask about the car (always with admiration). I tell them the performance is out of this world, but range is about 1/2 unless temps are 70 and a wind is helping push the car. My...

I really appreciate these brief videos. Thank you. I am anxiously awaiting an update that tells the car that the frunk is indeed closed when taking the car through a carwash so that it doesn't cause a software error that moves from neutral to park, leading irritated drivers behind in the...

This is an excellent suggestion. I have not tried that, but I will ask the Coldwater Service Center to please try replacing the Frunk latches. I was wondering what that flashing had to do with the vehicle going into park, but I can understand if that happens when the car believes the frunk is...

I have been running my 2022 Lucid Air Dream Edition through a rail-based carwash since I received it in Jan2022. Probably about 20 times without any issues. I've run my 2018 Mercedes S560 though the same carwash (Crew carwash in Indianapolis) since I bought that vehicle. However, the last two...

Sorry to say, but whoever developed the software to NOT show PSI when the car is parked and tires are cool has either never owned a car in their life, or they do not understand that PSI is most useful to owners when the tires are cool. If the PSI is low when cool, it is time to add some air...

I continue to be upset that Lucid took away the miles/kWh reading that displayed on the left side of the dash. Because it was there previously, there is no logical explanation for why it was removed.

I admitted it was my mistake in this thread. I was using the backup camera but I fucked up by not watching closely enough. In any case, my Mercedes does and has stopped. I hope Lucid improves this technology to get up to where the Mercedes is with theirs.

It might have been lifted. It was for sure an extended bed truck, very long, and not pulled into its spot. It had a rubber-type bumper and so no damage to the truck. On my Lucid it made scuff marks on the right side (middle part from top to bottom), but no dent.

Yes, I hit a stationary object (truck that had it's back end sticking far out of its parking spot; no excuse as still my fault for hitting him). Reverse camera and 360 view were both functioning. But the audible warning I expect was not working. And I thought the car would stop itself before...
