For me usually there is some kind of a curve but not enough to really worry about (especially since I rarely drive more than 10 mph over the speed limit; cue the smirks…). I’ve kind of wondered if it triggers that when it simply can’t quite see far enough ahead to be 100% confident. Though its...

Apparently Emad issued a farewell & thanks statement today. https://****************.com/lucid/lucids-engineering-mastermind-bids-farewell-thanks-peter-rawlinson/ If anyone has a direct source to his actual full statement, that’d be great. Or perhaps this captures all the key pieces. One bit...

Truly. Though it looks like they’re still limited to only 50 MPH, like the ones available for us (which do fit in the Frunk).

Is there something about the HVAC design that works dramatically better when the car’s in motion than when it’s sitting? Or, I wonder if something’s funky with the heat pump’s intake fan in my car…(‘25 AT) When I try to pre-cool the car in my garage (which was it about 75°), the air coming out...

Is there a reason you can’t just let your phone and car communicate via cellular? It sounds like your phone is connecting to the car fine without the Wi-Fi. There has long been some communication SNAFUs caused by having both Wi-Fi and cellular on in the car, so many of us just always keep the...

Interesting. So this may be the difference. If you don’t mind pushing the handle (or FOB) to lock when you’re out and about with your FOB, then turning off auto-unlock may usher you into the Unlocked at Home Promised Land….. Not sure why having auto unlock on would make the car feel like it...

Another interesting mystery of different cars having their own personalities! Mine is also a 2025, a straight touring. At some point, I’ll double check that it stays unlocked indefinitely… I know it does for several hours, and I’m pretty sure I’ve gone out another day and had it still work. Do...

This is my approach too. The door handles do retract at some point, but they will open without your key present when you push in on them— so for functional purposes like grabbing something from the car, it’s the same as having it unlocked in the garage. You can actually get in and drive with no...

Yup, it was that simple. I guess I could have guessed there was some way to close a vent! That makes me think it may be worth it to close the far right vent, to boost flow in the other 3 vents that reach me…. (I mostly drive alone)

Mine works fine too. I have it placed just below/behind the mirror.

huh…. I did not know that a bent could be shut off if I got too fiddly with the knob! I’ll check that tomorrow, thanks. And if it’s not that, thanks for the tip about a possible reset… I’ll report back.

It looks like I may have my first actual service issue, 17 months into ownership of my ‘25 Air Touring. One of the four dash-level air vents seems to have lost its fan motor. I just noticed it a couple days ago; though it seemed unlikely to help I wanted to wait until I made sure the car had a...

From press coverage, apparently based on the fuller Lucid statement… Only the Air Pure RWD The issue is limited to the single-motor Air Pure as the variant runs on one drive unit, the rear drive unit, so a single inverter failure leaves no backup. Lucid estimates that about 1.6% of the recalled...

This matches my real world efficiency range as well. Given the stated efficiency is about 4.45 for my air touring, my lifetime of efficiency of around four makes me happy. That said, I rarely break 75; just occasionally to pass somebody in a timely manner. So, getting within 10% of EPA is...

There’s a horizontal rectangular glass panel just above the steering wheel; that’s where the driver camera is, so you need to be able to see that clearly for it to see you. As Joe noted, this does mean lowering the steering wheel to the point where it blocks some of the upper part of the...

Yes it did, for the first day. Revised/current 2.9.2 did not. (though conflicting info on whether its distribution is paused…in any case, any 2.9.2 currently being offered has not bricked anyone.)

That seems very reasonable, in line with (or less than) most any other car approaching 100K miles. And far less than we’d pay for an extended warranty (though I suppose the worst case scenarios could still trigger some over-thinking on that when the time comes).

Way to go! What have your service needs been, after any of the “popular” glitches in the first 10-20K miles?

Ah, you know Lucid owners: we like to take the scenic route to our destination! (I think it’s really long past time for me to shut off the “new 52 week low“ notification that I set up on Schwab when I was waiting to begin purchasing….. I jumped in a few times along the way, starting when $3...

Man, this is exactly what so many of us need to hear! “Nary a problem” you say…. Those of us who have NOT had early hiccups (like motor or battery failure/replacement, or any of the other myriad glitches reported in the first year or two of ownership) certainly want to believe that our cars can...
