The charge issue from Lijunli is interesting; the reply from dbsb3233 more so. Here are two papers from battery engineers/developers: That forum post is partly right in general, but I would not follow the “charge to 100% every few months” advice for a Lucid Gravity unless Lucid specifically...

It has become clear to me over the last several years of driving my Touring that there are waaaaayyy too many variables to try to make sense of comparing one person's vehicle/efficiency to another's. The screenshots of anything less than 100 miles since last charge are not particularly helpful...

Hogwash! Only reason Musk got rid of other sensors is because it would take much longer and more difficult using more compute. Don’t believe everything that comes out of his mouth. He always cuts corners and does not put safety first.

...argue with your comment that there is not much resale value of used ev's anyway. But, there would have to be an expectation of battery degradation on any used ev. So, although the ~$25k new battery might not add $25k to the value of the car, there has to be some value to the prospective...

...there and it is welcome because it provides a different view. Then you find people who actually care about the tech in the cars, battery degradation, best charging practices, etc. It's also important to not be ignorant about what others have because it shows what is possible. Good example...

Owners manual says the charge limit should be set to 50-80 for daily driving. Use the higher limits for trips. It also says: "CAUTION: Charging beyond the recommended level too often can cause premature battery pack degradation"

I posted the fatality claims and I believe it was removed for personal attacks by a moderator. I'm not going to explain again. Lucid is not using HD maps at the same definition that are being used in a self driving car. hd maps in self driving cars contain a lot more than just lane info. These...

Every time one set of claims gets taken apart you don't respond to it, you just post a fresh set. The fatality claims from yesterday are gone, no acknowledgement, and now it's hardware. So let's do this one too, because almost nothing in it is right. "HD maps are quite large so it is impossible...

The depreciation curve of EV's is a bit steeper but there are several reasons for that. The early EV's were typically priced at a premium above equivalent gas models. That price differential was somewhat mitigated with tax credits. The price disparity has now moderated and the cost...

Want to share my recent service encounters with Lucid: Signs of logical processes exist! Background: I had a first run build, December 2022 Touring. Lots of service visits to fix early teething problems, most in the first year. Including: 1.) Panel alignment / trunk 2.) AC compressor...

...the BMS to display 100%, but it wouldn’t change the underlying physics in the battery. Note that letting the (NMP) battery sit at 100% causes faster battery degradation. It’s OK to occasionally charge to 100% and then immediately drive, but for normal use, stay within the daily charge range.

10,750 miles on it, 50% covered parking; 50% non-covered parking / week.

How many miles are on it. Could be some battery degradation if it's been allowed to sit 100% in the heat.

The first year is always, by far, the worst for degradation. Older Teslas used to lose almost 10% in the first year. It slows down to a trickle after that.

Air GT has a 112 kWh battery pack putting your degradation a hair over 7%.

The Lucid overall seems to flatline around the 6% to 7% degradation. My 2022 (produced in 2021) Air GT-P that has had a ton of DC fast charging and spirited drives sits at almost 95% currently. The Lucid tracker seems to converge on this number as well. Mileage does not appear to be the...

...with its air-cooled 62 kWh Lithium-Ion, has just shy of 50K miles and 12/12 bars on the battery health meter. (I.e., less than 8% battery degradation.) By my guesstimates, 90% of the charging has been on L1, 7% on L2, and the remaining 3% on DCFC. I'm in the market for the AGT, and I wish to...

I get it. Even though mine's a lease and I can always give it back in 16 months if that seems like the best move, I am a bit squirrelly about degradation as well. I mean, have a precise count down on wear and tear on a core expensive part of my car is a new experience. Like you, I've also...

Thanks for the info. Bullet 3 applies to me, so should be around 1.5% degradation since I only AC charge other than the first 3 days of ownership. Bullet 4 also applies but is very confusing. So anyplace that gets over 80 degrees F for more than 5 days in a year is considered a hot climate...

Average annual EV battery capacity loss is 2.3% in 2025–2026, up from 1.8% in 2024, driven by the surge in high-power DC fast charging sessions (Geotab, January 2026). A 77 kWh pack (e.g., Tesla Model 3 Long Range) losing 2.3%/yr still delivers ≈ 63 kWh effective capacity after 8 years— more...
