I’d long been curious about EVs, but hadn’t seriously researched them. I have friends who were early adopters of Tesla, but looking to upgrade. One of them is 6’7” tall, and checked all of the EVs on the market a few years ago. He told us about Lucid, which he liked the best, except that the...

Some of what you describe not liking about the bass sounds like what we used to experience before the campaign last fall to fix the front bass system. What year is your car? Do you know if it has had this fix? It involved putting some dampening tape over openings in the frame underneath the...

It isn't good to plug in and unplug the connector to the 14-50 outlet on the wall regularly; they aren't rated for that many insertions, and will eventually become loose. Back when I used that cable for daily charging, I left it hanging on the wall of my garage except when going on long road...

I ran into similar problems 2.5 years ago taking delivery of my Lucid in Massachusetts, before Lucid was an authorized auto dealer in this state. What we ultimately did was for me to sign a release of liability document to Lucid so that they gave me the car with no plates at all (Mass does not...

No. It's the rules around EPA mileage reporting. They only test the range in Smooth Mode, so it has to default to that. If they tested the range in all three modes and reported it that way, they wouldn't have to default back each time.

To graph parameters over time: Click on "History" in the navigation, and add the parameter you want to graph. For instance, my car is named "Lex Lucid", so I click on "+ Choose entity", type "Lex" in the search box, then select "Lex Lucid Remaining Battery Percent" from the drop down list...

I have an idea what might be happening. Sometime ago (I don't recall which version) installing an update seems to have overwritten all of my camera calibration data. The parking view didn't line up correctly, and lane centering was off. This happened immediately after installing the update...

Yes. For those who haven't really thought about the gas fill location, it comes down to priorities. Companies that prioritize convenience put it on the driver's side. Companies that prioritize safety put it on the side away from traffic if you have to add gas at the side of a busy highway...

... replacing the battery seems like a lot of work just to get the speaker tape applied.

I've got a GT manufactured in July, 2022. I called service about a minor problem, and they wanted to have my car a few days for a battery and wunderbox replacement. I haven't had any problems, but they said this was a campaign that applied to my car. Does anyone know what this is about?

I suspect that the Air has poor antenna design. That could explain many of the unlocking problems as well as poor connectivity.

You could turn off passive unlocking for the car. Then it won't unlock and power up unless you press on a door handle (or use the app or pushbutton on the fob).

Welcome! Two years and 32,000 miles later, I still love my Air GT here in Cambridge.

My past cars have had maintenance menus on the dash display. Usually they are hidden, but once you learn the magic sequence to open them, you can see sensor data and make additional operational changes. I wish the Air had something like this. I don't know if they have just managed to keep its...

Was the car locked? That pin is deployed when the car locks.
