Can't believe they're doing so far in advance of their "before September" timing. Seems unlike them

Seems doable assuming production really gets going this month or in July

I think it's important to remember that while Lucid has been able to engineer fantastic cars, it is still a very young and small company with limited production numbers and experience. They also don't have the same buying power that other more established manufacturers have, making it more it...

Current volatility is all noise. Lucid's deliveries guidance has not changed since the beginning of the year. I expect the stock will fall further with Q2 earnings as seemingly lackluster deliveries of the Gravity are confirmed. Market is overreacting as the overall narrative here has not...

That's interesting, thank you. Perhaps a bit off topic, but I'm surprised the car running on Android Automotive doesn't lend to some perks when using Android Auto.... I know Google had noted that Gemini would be rolled out to a number of vehicles (notably, Lucid was not on the list) for Android...

Is it too optimistic to think Android Auto will be better integrated into the system than Apple Carplay? Perhaps the holdup for initial certification was Lucid did not have a robust enough approach? Hoping that after all this waiting we get some perks

If they wanted to sell the DEs quicker, they should've differentiated it with either an additional color or an additional wheel option similar to the air.

Drive assist is definitely improved with this update, particularly in how much better lane change assist is. It still needs a lot of work though. On my 1 hour drive yesterday, it shut off a few times mid turn and had random instances where it would steer out of the lane I was in. This is...

I'm very curious to see if deliveries of Gravity will outpace Rivian when production fully ramps. Will be very telling of market reception of Gravity and will bode well for midsize success. Do we think they'll be able to fully ramp production by the end of this year?

Respectfully, traction control in a 2007 Corvette is pretty terrible as compared to any modern car, let alone the Sapphire. Trust me, the door lock/unlocking issue is incredibly annoying to deal with on a daily basis, but there are clear handling benefits from a more responsive traction control...

My guess is that color popularity is probably true for any vehicle

As the title says, has anybody seen this in stellar white metallic or does anybody have any pictures? I stopped by their NYC studio when they held the Gravity event and didn't see any in that color. I have a feeling the Gravity will look better in bright colors with the platinum appearance pack...

Assuming Lucid is somewhat competent, software should be the least of their worries with the midsize as most, if not all, of it should carry over from the gravity. Based on initial reviews, the Gravity still needs some software improvements and I'd imagine they're putting all their resources...

That would be interesting, but doesn't feel like something Lucid would do given it's all about having the most advanced tech.

My guess: The driver-oriented CUV will likely just be a smaller gravity (shorter in both length and height). The rugged crossover will likely be pretty similar, just with some bolted on bits and various changes to make it more "rugged". The third will likely be a more traditional SUV shape...
