My bad. Apologies. I contacted two engineers, didn't do a search.

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...

Not quite - but I've taken it down to 21% from 100%. Close enough?

Good points. I go by the trip meter and the kwh and miles traveled when I charge. (I do the second calculation occasionally; I don't obsess over miles per kwh.)

I think it's knowledge from the service team.

If anyone on the thread is around eastern Massachusetts, the Natick Lucid has a thing on Saturday. I plan to stop in.

Researched the tire pressure comment. The miles/kwh drop from a true 42 to 38 equates to only 1 - 2%.

Oh - one more thing. It's leased, so if anyone wants it when the lease is up... (which would be December 2028)

All I can say is I don't exceed 70 as a rule on 65 mph roads and use regenerative braking almost exclusively to slow down and stop. Tire pressures are 1 psi over recommended. Nothing else comes to mind.

I can't explain it, and I'm not competing for any prizes. I think it's real based not only on the dash numbers, but on how many Kwh I use to charge and the miles driven.

Mostly 40 - 50 mph roads. No, I don't make it a habit of driving below the speed limit (+ 10%) unless the car in front of me presents a barrier. I mix that with interstate driving (70 mph) several times a week. The climate here is mild most of the year, so I don't need much from the air...

Actually, driving is always downhill here. It makes up for walking to school uphill in the snow - both ways - when I was a kid.

I'll toss in that I agree with the 2000 or so miles, but with the Gravity GT 7 passenger version and best mileage wheels/tires combo, I average 3.8 miles per KWH, and easily exceed 460 miles range with the EPA for the 7 passenger being 437. Around my area (Cape Cod, MA), I can easily average 4.2...

The dynamic range is based on relatively recent driving. If you look up your trips, you'll see your miles per KWH for each one (A and B) and since last charge. With brand new tires and likely some use just before you got it, and maybe learning the vehicle, you may see a startling low value. I...

I laughed when I saw the first email (the one you show here.) I emailed back about the typo regarding the firmware version, and they fixed that quickly. The mobile key icon is gray on my phone when the car is plugged in. It lights up when the car is disconnected from the charger.

;)

And I have to get out of the car when I go to a drive up ATM. Actually I think the difficulty is Lucid's attempt to keep us healthy - McDonalds is no good for you!

I agree. Actually, I’ll stop in after calling them. Natick has been a very good service center!

That's leak, not "lead." Typing is not one of my superpowers.

I noticed a haze inside the plastic in front of the headlight array. There's no moisture or evidence of a lead. Has anyone else noticed this, and if so, is there a way to clean it other than via a service call? Thanks!
