Nothing unusual here in terms of changing out the CEO. Most founder CEOs do not remain with the company as it scales. The expertise and experience are different and this happens all the time with investor funded, early stage businesses, especially those run by technical or engineering types...

Agree with IRJ - love driving the car but I would not recommend this car to anyone I know, and my wife would get frustrated with all of the work arounds as well. Unless the Gravity software is much better, it will not sell well. key issues, carplay issues, volume issues, car not connecting in...

Will try that with a long charger cable. Was also thinking of using a cigarette lighter charging adapter if there is that plug in the car to avoid the USB associated with CarPlay. Also was looking at USB C to USB C Data blocking charging cable. I will try the rear USB C port and if that...

Tried that. Deleted her phone. If she plugs in to charge while I drive (wants to use the phone so not the wireless charger), the carplay connects to her phone even if it is already connected to mine. Seems the hard wired connection is primary even if the phone is not configured in the car...

Lots of issues with carplay. Volume does not return or respond after a call at times. Connects to the wrong phone. Connects to a phone plugged into the charging cord even if that phone is not in any profile, many times does not connect - have to go into devices and touch the icon to connect...

I will not know until this summer. It happens when it is really hot outside. I believe the metal hood expands slightly and catches on the front trim piece on one corner. They adjusted the hood but it was never hot enough to see if the problem was fixed.

Have the same issue from time to time. Phone says waking up even if I am at the car and the car is open. Next day, may work fine. As a result, I always take the key fob with me.

For the non-enthusiast customer, probably 98% of buyers, it's the software and features that sells the car. I agree with Marsarbu, unless Lucid can get the bugs out, the company will fail. I have had minimal issues with my Pure in 1.5 years but I would never recommend this car to anyone. Too...

Other issues with Tidal and the other music apps is that they frequently do not recall where you left off in a playlist. Get out of the car for an errand and when you resume, either the playlist starts over, the music does not start at all, or, occasionally, the song you were listening to...

I had the same issue but in hot weather. The frunk would open slightly but then be stuck. What was happening was that it was catching on the trim around the front edge of the car due to metal expansion from the heat. If you pulled it up after unlatching, it would dislodge a piece of trim on...

On 18.2 - App will not start. Crashes. Worked initially yesterday. Now totally out.

Try cleaning the wipers with some alcohol on a cloth or paper towel to remove any oil or grease. This works until the blades wear out.

The adapters you can buy that have a NACS on one side and a CCS plug for the Lucid are ONLY for level 2 chargers. I have one and use it with my Tesla home charger. You can find the superchargers that support CCS on your Lucid here: https://www.plugshare.com/location/466734 As others have...

Please read the Tesla annual report. Their revenues were close to $100 billion last year with just $1.8 billion in carbon tax credits - so less than 2% on a revenue basis . This year it will be slightly higher, so 3% of revenues? On a revenue basis, its minimal. Owning both cars, the Tesla...

MKBHD did not kill Fisker. Fisker killed the company. Everything but the design of the car was a wreck, financials, parts availability, software, delivery and service. Lather, rinse and repeat - this was just a redo of his last flop, the Fisker Karma.
