Per Lucid, it is actually the same as the Touring model. 250 KW max input at DC fast chargers.

Lucid made a lot of changes to the Touring to dumb it down so people like me could afford it (without meanwhile getting a divorce which was a close call . . .). I am not ready to assume the charging infrastructure was replicated from the Touring. I think some official Lucid people monitor this...

I enjoy this discussion and not trying to be pissy about anything. Most EV car manufacturers publish how much DC KW power input the car's charging infrastructure is designed to accept. Lucid does it apparently, just not for the Air Pure and that is what I was trying to find out. My Mini...

Yeah- I assumed so, that is why I stated the whole thread with "I assume this has already been discussed before . . .". If you can point me to where someone answered my question about why I only see 95 KW peak input when it is presumably rated for at least 200 KW input that would be cool.

By the way, if you want to geek out on this stuff State of Charge website is an excellent source of information. All EV's have a charging curve- it is not a flat line so depending on where you are in the charging cycle the KW input from the charger to the car will vary. If the Air Pure truly...

Interesting, wonder why I am not getting even close to that. I wasn't buddy breathing with anyone today- was the only car in the lot on a 350 KW EA charger. Anyhoo, just something I will keep an eye on going forward.

Thanks for the responses! The question I am asking though is what is the maximum rated KW (not kwh) input that the Air Pure model is capable of accepting? The other models have posted specifications (see image below) but I cannot find it for the Air Pure model.

I am sure this is discussed in this forum somewhere but cannot find it. For the Air Pure model, what is the maximum KW input from a DC fast charger the car can accept? I read somewhere it is 200 KW, but not sure that is correct. I have been watching my phone app the last few times I charged...

And yes, it already gnaws at me cosmetically. She was so perfect . . .

LOL. Thanks for the input. (I have not even tried sprint mode yet . . .)

Well, Lucy is no longer 100% perfect- we have our first ding. The lower front bumper must have hit something (do not recall any incident) and now has a hole. It is not too noticeable, and we can probably live with it as long as the fact it is a hole doesn't cause any concern with water getting...

Yes! That works. I was reluctant to post such a silly thing, but glad I did. Lucy is now 100% perfect.

One of the coolest things about this great car is having the small fob in my pocket, just walk up, get in, put her in drive and go. But why does she have to chirp at me for the few seconds it takes to sit down and then put on my seatbelt? Can I silence this?

Ashburn/Leesburg home but will gladly drive this beauty anywhere assuming a spicy bloody mary is involved.

I wanted the ZR, but was over-ruled by my lovely wife. Still think that is a beautiful color.

Update approximately one month in to the adventure. Best car in the world. (and I have not screwed the plate into the front bumper) Cheers.

I had been researching EV's for a couple of years knowing we would have to replace our Buick Enclave road-horse and wanting to get into the EV market. Phase 1 - installed the PV panels on the roof- Phase 2 bought a Mini Cooper SE electric mini this summer (it is fabulous) to put our toes into...

Thanks for that recommendation. I will check out Sto-n-Sho. Really do not want to drill into the bumper- I know they will do it for me at the service center, but the issue is the same in that it permanently mars the bumper.

Heeere's Lucy!! Alongside Peggy, her electric Mini Cooper SE stablemate. We have both ends of the EV car spectrum covered.

Will do. Having a moment with the front license plate. In Virginia, we will be ticketed without it. I am hating having to drill into that beautiful front end. Researched alternatives including plugging something into the tow eye and others discussed already on this forum. Dammit- but think...
