    AC stopped working, service center says no faults

    ...understand their description, but my sense was that since the refrigerant was quite low (37% of normal volume), it wasn’t carrying enough heat into the heat pump compressor to have the compressor kick on. Hence, the system was basically blowing ambient air. When the car was in motion, it...

    Tested My 2026 Lucid Gravity GT From 100% to 3% Over 9½ Days — 327.8 Miles Driven, 3.23 mi/kWh

    I do expect a fair bit of power to be lost as heat during charging. But I can't say that I have any idea what would be a normal percentage, not for EVs in general, nor for the Gravity specifically. It would be interesting to see others report data for Gravity charging efficiency, but I...

    Any Difference between 2024 and 2025 Sapphire?

    I can confirm, my 2024 Sapphire has both, the new chip and the new heat pump.

    2022 grand touring air- FM radio reception

    With home assistant you can wake the car and set a temp based on outside temp and how soon you will be ready to go. Full disclosure I have not written this code but I’m seeing all the parts there, and even more if you want to write python.

    2022 grand touring air- FM radio reception

    You can manually turn on your car and have it heat/cool to a temperature you set. I am not aware that it can be scheduled for a specific tine on a daily basis.

    Gravity Camping

    ...reality. All I really want out of it most of the time is dehumidification and fresh air, so the lower set point for me makes it less likely the heat will come on for no reason. Bring a lantern or clip-on light for the cabin. The interior lights turn off when the car goes to sleep, and they're...

    Motion Sickness

    Regen recovers 60% - 80% of kinetic energy that would otherwise be wasted as heat. In the real world, empirical evidence shows ~20% range gain with regen.

    Take Care of Your Windshield!

    ...after I installed the WPF. This is for the Air, unknown if they will offer one for the Gravity. Installation was easy enough. Didn't need a heat gun to soften the film to lay flat. I do wonder if there might have been too much soap in the slip solution and it contributed to the increased...

    Take Care of Your Windshield!

    That’s a frustrating experience, especially when a small windshield crack turns into weeks of delays and complicated repairs. Thanks for sharing your experience. It’s a good reminder for Lucid owners to research repair options and insurance requirements in advance. Hopefully, the third shop gets...

    Great customer service

    If that’s the pump I think it is then it must be fixed or you could get stranded. What I’m kind of noticing is that if a pump heats something there’s a good chance it might cool something else. If it’s the one I had replaced it defrosted the front window and provided heat to the interior. It...

    First-Time EV Buyer: Looking for a Pre-Owned Air Touring (Tips on Model Years?)

    What is CCCv2? Since it can be bought from Lucid; does that exclude total loss cars? I am pretty torn between trying to buy a used one from used car dealers and buying one from auction that I fix myself / with my friends shop. I'm not one to sell cars so residual value doesn't mean much to me...

    First-Time EV Buyer: Looking for a Pre-Owned Air Touring (Tips on Model Years?)

    ...Not to say that 2022 is bad choice, but you will be on your own without a warranty. The 2024s had some minor improvements, and the 2025s add a heat pump and an updated processor, which could save you the $1,000 upgrade cost. The heat pump only matters for heating in cold climate settings. I...

    Constant glitches

    I asked Lucid technician to adjust the frunk after the car has been heat soaked for an hour or two. Now its 99% good even after 120F heat soak.

    Another simple subwoofer install with pics

    Thanks. Will try that and respond. I am putting in a Forgate P300-12T powerd sub. It fit almost perfect in the lower deck of the trunk, with the lid closing with no issues. Had it in my last car and it made a huge difference. Once done, I will send pics.

    Another simple subwoofer install with pics

    ...I may reinstall it at a later date, but need to figure out how to mount this under the seat powered sub to the back of the rear seat in the trunk. I tried 3M double sided tape made for automotive and velcro. The heat in the trunk would soften the adhesive and the sub would fall off the velcro.

    Front Camera Fault

    I have left the AC running and the issue will still occur as it is external heat from the glass on the the camera module behind the rear view mirror. IMHO, this is clearly a design flaw that Lucid needs to have their supplier resolve.

    Front Camera Fault

    ...up. Heaven forbid if I park the car facing the sun..then it's for sure gonna pop this fault up. I scheduled the appointment 2 months ago for 3 months out..so next month I'll somehow get a resolution. And yeah it's ridiculous that these cars are made in AZ and are too touchy about heat and...
