    Days Since The Last Major Feature Release... Yikes!

    It has randomly intruded annoyingly and embarrassingly, responding to a passenger's voice. I must turn it off.

    Drive assist & cruise refuse to engage periodically 2.6.0 / 2.6.11

    I had the same experience after accelerating beyond the speed limit and overriding Drive Assist. I was passing a slow moving group and wanted to do so quickly. I do not recall the speed at which it disengaged but as we know the speed comes on very fast with all the torque. Next time I feel the...

    Lucid support in decline?

    I am sorry to learn of the difficulties some have had obtaining satisfactory service. I have not seen a decline in service quality. My experience over two and a half years with service centers and customer service is that they have been responsive and courteous. QC at the factory could have been...

    Out of Spec - Lucid Gravity Launch Event At The NYC Meatpacking Studio!

    Gravity is super impressive and a desirable vehicle for most. I have not watched the entire video, but his comments that are very critical of the Air draw a clear distinction with Gravity. We are not in a perfect world, and the advances with the Air are amazing for me as a car enthusiast owner...

    Last road trips with free charging 😢

    $0.11 kWh is fantastic. I pay $0.15/kWh in VA. According to my research, the EA member rate is $0.31 per kWh plus a $4 monthly fee. It is on par with ICE gas consumption at 30 mpg. I'm not sure that many 5200 pound sedans get 30 mpg, though, so it is not comparable. I assume that, except in some...

    My ‘25 AGT is Frickin’ AMAZING

    Impressive efficiency at 4.49 mi/kWh. What are the upgrades that account for the improvement in efficiency over earlier AGTs? And yes, in every respect the AGT is a superior sedan.

    Marc interviewed on Fox

    He represented Lucid very well. Too bad the interviewer did not ask more questions about Gravity. I am a bit surprised that only 50% of the Gravity orders are from Tesla owners, but it is encouraging that 75% of the orders are from non-Lucid owners. It would have been good if he had cited the...

    Automotive Tariffs 25% on Canada and Mexico

    How will the tariffs benefit US consumers now or in the long term? Will they be a powerful incentive for manufacturers to build plants here and source all components domestically? The last time tariffs were this high in the US was in the early 1930s. You do not have to be an economist to know...

    Gravity Delivery Discussion

    I understand the frustration of those who are awaiting delivery, but believe that it is better for Lucid to be deliberate on Gravity than to start deliveries prematurely. I do not know what explanations Lucid has offered for the delay. I have not ordered a Gravity but based on reports so far it...

    Days Since The Last Major Feature Release... Yikes!

    Of course, innovative competition is healthy and benefits consumers. That is why I bought the AGT in 2022. When do you think that it will be available in the USA? Given the CCP subsidy, it will likely have a very large tariff should it ever be approved for import here. Maybe it will still be...

    Why do you believe that ziaomi is better than the AGT?

    Days Since The Last Major Feature Release... Yikes!

    For two and a half years of ownership, my expectations for OTAs have been met. Would it be nice to get Gravity-like system upgrades? Of course, but I bought an AGT. And, yes, the car is a joy to drive. If that makes me a "fanboy", then be it so. Please find a more capable EV and let us know your...

    Consumer Reports Reliabilty Rankings

    100% agree and Lucid performs above and beyond in service. It at least matched Porsche, Audi, BMW and MB in my experience over the past 20 years or so. The 94 CR rating to me is OK, but compared to what exactly? Dynamically my AGT is much better than my 2013 and 2016 Panamera GTS's with NA V8...

    Consumer Reports Reliabilty Rankings

    Consider the source and methodology which in this case involved what was apparently a small and probably insignificant sample size of early build vehicles. If one had a six sigma standard, then Lucid will not score well in every category, but as borski said, cars are subjective and my judgement...

    OTA Update 2.6.0

    I have not received this OTA yet but appreciate improvements even if incremental, especially for the camera. After over two years the improvements in functionality of my AGT are very apparent.
