    Accidentally engaging Park while driving at 20 mph - Is this a safety concern?

    Joking aside I am wondering if that shouldn't be a requirement for people...Or a wizard that forces you to setup and use each function at delivery.

    Car and Driver : 40K-Mile Test 2024 Lucid Air Pure RWD

    Yeah there is some strange logic that Lucid uses to force all the air to the windshield defroster when starting using Auto, I just set everything to just below half fan speed and lower temp, steering wheel and seat heaters are real good.

    Lucid Air in Service Queue for 7 Weeks. What Does This Mean for Long-Term Ownership?

    They effectively doubled the number of cars on the road over the past 18 months while not adding any service capacity and in fact cutting it early this year. Its not that complicated of a metric, cars per SC. Once they are overloaded by 20% you have to invest in some capacity. It seems mostly...

    EPA vs real world range: maybe Gravity isn't so bad after all

    I mean it's a dumb test as far as actually representing people's real world driving behavior, but it is a proper lab test for figuring out how much energy a vehicle can get out of it's battery. Anyways, I was told I can't run my ICE car below 20% gas tank level so I don't burn out my fuel pump...

    EPA vs real world range: maybe Gravity isn't so bad after all

    EPA literally runs vehicles till they stop moving and have 0 energy, that is different than holding 70mph. You can sit and run a Gravity another 30 miles under 0% at 20 mph.

    EPA vs real world range: maybe Gravity isn't so bad after all

    On the US configuration there is ONLY one possible config to get the max range (its a summer tire, so not going to be in Michigan test in the fall). So BMW also misleads with marketing, there is no 60K car with 430 miles range, there is only one minute spec to get that range.

    Need Help with Lease Anxiety

    The issue is after 20 years the battery will be down 20% range anyways, at least an ICE car I can replace all the components easily and tune it to get MPG and power back, though not brand new. Making battery packs with modular replacements would be more sustainable. Which is why I'd rather...

    Gravity-Pilot Program?

    I got the email, I thought it implied they could use my car for testing software behind the scenes without official release?

    Update regarding Phone as a Key availability for Gravity owners

    That remote start feature has been around for 6 months, I use it when I feel like not carrying the fob because of pocket/pants limitations. I have had the fob fall out of my pocket too many times into the crevices...

    Software wish list

    I still like 'Soft Stop' so that in stop and go traffic you don't get any small lurching. The competition has this.

    Crash

    I would think it's possible to overpower any acceleration by stomping on the brakes or left foot braking. But it's not impossible to have acceleration glitches that are too fast to react to...

    Motion Sickness

    I try to use standard regen and very smooth foot motions for good driving habits, but this gets thrown out of the window with unpredictable traffic behavior too:)

    https://codingace.net/physics/weight_of_compressed_air.html#results I tried some reverse engineering of it, the carbon fiber tanks are existing aerospace tech, the compressors pumping them up are realistic pressures...Car is still likely going to need a step change in battery tech to get any...

    Yes, its like some of those track only special hypercar unicorns, where you will need a private runway and track to truly unleash. Or maybe they sell out stadiums like Monster Jam for stunt shows...
