    Expectations on Mileage loss?

    I would love to know this as well. My 5 month old pure is at 95% battery health. Very rarely DC fast charger and only charged at 100% few minutes before 4 long trips. I got 5500 miles on the ODO. I would love to know if the 5% degradation is normal, assuming we can trust the numbers from the API.

    Expectations on Mileage loss?

    For me, I had near 0 degradation for over the first year and a half I had the car (newly bought GT in October '22). It was just May of this year that I started to notice that there was some degradation, and then, again later this summer. In the past 2 weeks is the fastest I've ever seen. Based...

    Expectations on Mileage loss?

    ...year 1, 2% in year two, 1% in year 3 and NOTHING after that. When I sold the car earlier this month I was still able to charge to 94% of the original charge level (at 69,000 miles). My point is that battery degradation is not linear…it’s often front loaded…as long as you take care of it...

    Expectations on Mileage loss?

    The first year of degradation is always the highest. After that it slows down *significantly*

    Beyond the Charging Curve: What Are Your Real-World DCFC Speeds?

    After one year almost exclusively charging at EA, I find myself wondering the degree to which my limited charging speeds are the result of EA's limitations vs. Lucid's software attempting to manage my battery life. I find that it doesn't much matter what my starting point is. It's going to take...

    For longer battery life: drive it like you stole it

    What a relief. My battery pack is destined for a very long life. My tires . . . maybe not so much.

    For longer battery life: drive it like you stole it

    It's great to know I'm helping the battery last longer!

    For longer battery life: drive it like you stole it

    ...driving, the researchers found a correlation in their data suggesting sharp, short accelerations may actually lead to slower battery degradation. Pressing down hard on pedals with a lead foot didn’t seem to speed up battery aging. It may have actually had the opposite effect." Everything you...

    10,000 mile review - the good and the not-so-good, but nothing ugly

    Unfortunately, as much as I love my car, I have completely given up on the idea that I will ever charge faster than 150 kW or that I'll sustain a moderately high speed while charging. I've received many different explanations, but none of them really change the fact that I bought a car that was...

    Issues with my car

    On the 5% degradation of my 10 year old Tesla battery, I exaggerated slightly, but the exaggeration wasn't intentional. When our car was delivered in December 2014, at 100% SOC, it showed 248 miles range. 10 years later, it shows 230 at 100% SOC. (I just checked it this morning). So, after 10...

    2025 Air Touring or should I go up to GT?

    ...one reason to think off If you are going to have it for long term like 5 years or more I would take GT no question as because of battery degradation and you still then have enough range Besides it sees to me the trend will be fast charging and small battery for the new generation of cars...

    Range w/heater?

    Noticed something similar. The thing that I felt the most was a cool air hitting my hand son the steering wheel and face. My suspicion (and I checked last night), is that the windshield is very cold and the warm air that hits it from the front cools by the time it arrives on me. I checked and...

    Range w/heater?

    ...and longevity above everything else. Trying to keep the battery temp at the ideal level. Where other manufactures might not. Hopefully this means lower battery degradation over time. I believe Lucid has the best BMS out there but it might translate negatively to driver/passengers comfort levels.

    Range Questions after first trip

    range do evaporate when you accelerate quickly and also at higher speeds 55mph+. i usually drive in the 75-80mph range and i do a 30% math to get a more accurate estimate. 370 * 0.7 = 259 miles which is 6miles higher than what you had left in the battery pack. maybe people living in harsh winter...

    Range Questions after first trip

    Short answer is Yes to all questions and all normal behavior what I experienced. Couple of things to mention if you want to get around advertised range: 1. Keep your speed down you should not really go above 70mph especially during cold weather. Anything above 70mpg changes the efficiency...

    Range Questions after first trip

    Short answer. EA may have 2 connectors but only 1 at a time. Your real range with AC or Heat is what you see in miles per kwh since last charge and the size of your battery. Speed and acceleration affect range as in the Tesla or any EV in addition to the ambient temperature. As @Bobby said, see...

    Displayed efficiency versus actual

    Not too hard: my battery is 112kW so I use 100kW to allow for a buffer/degradation. So, multiply efficiency times 100 and that's miles remaining. Example: 3.4m/kWh x 100 = 340 miles.

    10,000 mile review - the good and the not-so-good, but nothing ugly

    ...whether to complain about it or not. I plan to hold on to the car for a while, so I should be happy with any efforts to minimize battery degradation. But if it's possible to maintain a higher rate of charge for longer, this would take 5-10 minutes off every stop at EA. Improving the charge...

    The I-90 Surge by Out of Spec Studios

    ...trip wasn't funny at the time but I gotta tell you it had me chuckling listening to the team discussing the events during that time. If you guys do this again and are looking to get a used AGT with some battery degradation, I might be interested if the timing is right and if I still own the car.

    New to EV, Considering Gravity

    I think ev’s are the better long term ownership solution, there is now enough information and history of long term reliability of ev battery packs going further and or at least equal to equivalent ice engines minus the extra maintenance. Yes ev’s still require brakes , bushings, suspension up...
