    Is Lucid styling the problem?

    I also see that you are in Georgia. Will you be test driving out of the Polestar in ATL? If so, can you share your experience with me. I had a horrible one last year and am wondering if it was a bad time or if that is how they handle themselves in general.

    Is Lucid styling the problem?

    This is legit my exact list. Not even kidding. I would switch the Polestar and Macan on the exterior styling though for my personal preferance but otherwise generally agree. This does prove that no car is perfect and it is all about what you are willing to live with. Another section I would...

    Lexus Electric SUV

    Maybe I prefer the toxic relationship over the vanilla one.

    Lexus Electric SUV

    Depends how you define "better." Agree with what you are saying, but man, every Lexus I have ever driven is straight melatonin. As someone who loves to drive, it sucks any fun out of it. I'd rather deal with the let's say "personability" of these vehicles from these new EV companies than daily a...

    Lexus Electric SUV

    Sadly, it will sell well. The Toyota and Lexus brands are strong as they have made a name in reliability. People who buy these cars rarely cross shop. Still feels like they aren't trying to make (competitive) EVs but way better than their compliance EVs of the past. However, for my own...

    Rivian Q1 2026 earnings- half came from Amazon

    Do you want him to mention Polestar and Vinfast too? Everyone knows Tesla, this is why he keeps bringing them up. While Lucid wants to be part of the "software" defined gang, their reputation has amounted to anything but. I don't think its intentional, but I don't think Rivian wants to be looped...

    If not an Air, which EV would you buy?

    Was looking at this as well. When also considering charging speeds, range, and lack of frunk - the Air is a lot more car for the money. The Lyriq is beautiful though. Wish GM did more on the V model to make at the least charging speeds more competitive.

    2027 order on Apr 1st. Now its a mid June start date

    I was looking at inventory for a white Gravity given the end of month incentives in April. They have a ton of inventory upcoming but I'd call these inventory configurations absolutely random at best. Most don't even have the surreal sound pro. I would think that at least a good chunk of the...

    Rivian Q1 2026 earnings- half came from Amazon

    We can agree there. Would have loved to see 800v from them, but then again, that would have likely upped the price. Doesn't mean it won't come later though and RJ has already hinted as much but I'd imagine it would likely come to the R1 line first. Innovation is nice, for sure, but it is not...

    Rivian Q1 2026 earnings- half came from Amazon

    Rivian is eyeing European expansion in the next few years. This is a good move. While Lucid can claim to be international, this does go with my notion that they are trying to do too much at once. Until their midsize is released, I don't foresee sales being much better abroad for the Air or the...

    Gravity gt vs t sales rate?

    Based off incentives and inventory, I'm deducing the GT is likely selling better. At this price point, people will likely swing for more options and take the range (or max performance). The Touring is great compared to the competition, but Lucid might have lobbed off too much range compared to...

    Rivian Q1 2026 earnings- half came from Amazon

    The P12 is not the EX60 starting around $60k. That will be the P10, which is closer to the R2 premium in specs. The iX3 starts where the R2 tops out, and considerable slower and a look that is divisive at best. Sure, the other two win on charging, but not as competitive on price as this graphic...

    Next update scheduled for mid/late May

    Really hoping this is the case. The delays are worrisome.

    Next update scheduled for mid/late May

    I told my sales rep I was waiting for Gravity to at least get PAAK before making the leap. Was really hoping it was in the May release as originally mentioned. Q3 feels like eons away. Hopefully they can deliver it seamlessly at least when it does arrive.

    Rivian Q1 2026 earnings- half came from Amazon

    It's simple if you ask me. The product works. More of a winning formula than trying to be the best at everything. This is why Toyota does so well. No one would call them innovative but they focus on reliability and making sure the vehicles work as expected and their sales and reputation do so...

    Rivian Q1 2026 earnings- half came from Amazon

    I had no idea. Thanks for the info! It is a very beautiful sedan at that. I hope they continue to update it.

    Rivian Q1 2026 earnings- half came from Amazon

    When your company needs the cash, the "easy" route in the interim makes a lot of sense, though I'd hardly it call going mass market easy.

    Rivian Q1 2026 earnings- half came from Amazon

    And Rivian started with an EV pickup truck, a market that is also shrinking. The SUV, which came later, is by far and away most of their sales. I hear this argument a lot and it just falls flat. You can very much compare both companies because they both released their first EVs around the same...

    Rivian Q1 2026 earnings- half came from Amazon

    They'll be fine. This is as expected as R2 becomes the main focus. A slight lag in sales Q1, some uptick in Q2 and then full throttle with Q3 and beyond. The deals with Amazon, VW and Uber along with the software sales are all huge bonuses. Rumors are also that we may see an update to the R1...

    Long Beach to Scottsdale and Back (in an R1S)

    It was a 2,000 mile trip and we used mostly RAN since I had free charging with them from a referral. Super reliable and fast enough on the onset, but that was it, 40 minutes felt way too long. Each time it felt like we were waiting around an extra 10 minutes than I would have liked. I came...
