maybe he saw the software team was in such disarray he couldn't fix anything, so he bounced 😜 🤣

Sprint isn't as crazy as you think. You can still just drive it normally in sprint mode. The only difference you will feel immediately is the slightly stiffer suspension. Actually ironically, i think the throttle is more trigger happy in swift than it is in sprint. It's a similar design to what...

My touring residual is $73k. I don’t see a world in which it will be anywhere close and worth a buy out

you put your vin in the coupon code box when ordering the charger

The problem is it’s irresponsible to keep or buy out one of these leases with crazy high residual. You’re incentivized to dump it. Usually if the residual is in line or slightly below market value, some people may choose to buy it out. But lucid leases have super high residuals so no one is...

yea my steering wheel gets crazy hot all over. I usually have to turn it off after a while

Yea, it’s not great, add it to list of enhancements lucid should be working on lol. I don’t know if you’ve tried CarPlay’s implementation but that’s another option you have. Unfortunately there’s hardly any keyboards in CarPlay, so it’s pretty useless as an infotainment setup.

the msrp for a BASE car is 70. That means they have to be able to sell it for 60-62.5k after 18 month to break even. That’s definitely not happening. They will lose another 12k-15k as these will be going for below 50k. Not to mention we know most of the cars people are leasing are not base...

Pull a Fisker? Lol yea that’s likely too.

My guess is lucid is hedging on survival for 18 months. If the gravity turns them around, they are good, otherwise they’ll just write off the returns.

You’re basically paying 90% interest and no depreciation. Lucid leases are something else these days 🤣

it's dumb alexa. For some reason, the in-car alexa systems don't work the same way an echo device does. It does not work with the majority of smart home commands.

Yes my mobile key is working very poorly after update

So you’re saying you get 300 miles on 75% battery capacity? That’s pretty good! No?

this isn’t a review of the 2024, I wouldn’t read too much into this. This is probably just a copy of paste from 2022. I’ve seen a lot of errors on this part of Edmund’s site for many different models. My guess is the not up to class standard on handling is objectively from the numbers. Skid...
