    Car won’t go into DRIVE !

    This sounds almost exactly like my experience. Have never been stranded or anything, usually it just takes an extra ~30 seconds for everything to be ready. Its so intermittent though that I have never noticed a specific pattern.

    Starting to regret getting this car...

    FWIW I have the same issue. Its because the holes in the mats are a little bit too big, so they don't really "attach" to the posts in the floor so much as just lay over them. It's not like they are sliding all over the places, but they do move a bit over time. I probably fix mine about once...

    Smooth process…so far

    Honestly for me the whole buying process felt chaotic. I've bought plenty of new cars, but always from dealers. I bought a car once from a dealer in (or just outside) Philly while I was living in Toronto, but it was still from a specific dealer. Buying from Lucid and doing almost everything...

    CarPlay Ultra, the next generation of CarPlay, begins rolling out today

    Any hints as to what the link says? No subscription so I cannot read it.

    [Probably] Going to pull the trigger on a '25 Touring

    The incentives have been pretty consistent the last couple months (I got mine in March with, more or less, the same discounts). For me it took a couple weeks from the time I ordered the car to the day I took delivery. Lucid does not seem to be willing to guarantee discounts available at time of...

    New Lucid Air Delivered Today

    Just an update in case anyone else runs into this, but Lucid Financial Services said they couldn't help, they just referred me to customer care. I spoke to someone from their national customer care and he said he is going to check with the location where I took delivery. I am thinking I should...

    New Lucid Air Delivered Today

    Bump... Question for other folks who lease...I am now about two months after delivery and I still haven't gotten my permanent registration/tags from Lucid. Is this normal? This is my first lease and every time I bought a car before the dealership would transfer my old tags/registration from my...

    Car won’t go into DRIVE !

    So for me this situation happened twice but only after charging sessions. This past Saturday the issue persisted a few hours after the charging session since I drove it to a party right after unplugging it. I am not upset because in all cases just waiting ~30 seconds or so seems to solve the...

    CarPlay Ultra, the next generation of CarPlay, begins rolling out today

    After watching/reading more specifics about CarPlay Ultra I think you are correct. Normal Carplay will satisfy the vast majority of what most users are looking to get for in-car infotainment. Carplay Ultra looks interesting, but I can't see if being an "absolute must have" for people.

    AWD + Glass Canopy vs Base

    Just out of curiosity, is a "Pure + AWD" a non-US thing? When I was looking at buying a Lucid the Touring model seemed like what you are describing. Basically, if you want RWD get the Pure, if you want AWD start with the Touring (and of course go up from there). Even now looking at available...

    CarPlay Ultra, the next generation of CarPlay, begins rolling out today

    This seems like such a basic thing. Most people use their phones as entertainment multimedia hubs. Its not just "a phone" and hasn't been for ~20 years. The nice thing about Carplay (and presumably Android Auto, though I've never used it) is that you don't have to go from one device to another...

    Cosmos Silver Metallic with Leather (and 14 way) vs Fathom Blue with Leather Alt (and 20 way)

    This is almost purely subjective, but IMHO fathom blue is the best color. That being said, I ended up with a grey car because I wanted other options more and I took what was available. I'd avoid a color I didn't like, but IMHO silver will look fine, even if it doesn't really stand out much.

    Cosmos Silver Metallic with Leather (and 14 way) vs Fathom Blue with Leather Alt (and 20 way)

    I have the adjustable ambient lighting on my car...honestly I couldn't care less about it. I would completely discount that feature if I were you. Its something I think I checked out a little bit when I first got the car and have never bothered with since.

    CarPlay Ultra, the next generation of CarPlay, begins rolling out today

    While I understand what you are saying, it seems like that is looking at it purely from the automakers perspective. As a consumer, I very much prefer using Carplay. Everyone I know with an iPhone now uses Carplay in their cars. It makes the infotainment and navigation aspect of cars so much...
