    Is The 2027 Air Announcement Imminent?

    I doubt they will offer lease deals on ordered cars until they finish selling off 2026 inventory... Furthermore, management made it clear that they are going to limit production and are not going to resort to heavy discounts and promotions in order to move cars in the future. However, they...

    Is The 2027 Air Announcement Imminent?

    It is good news to finally see 2027 Air moving forward.. They obviously have limited option overlaps between the trims to simplify production. Odd that they still have Air with short-lived Aeronaut wheels as display photo on Lucid site, but those are no longer available for order. Those were...

    Sales Dept Unresponsive This Week

    Thanks, but see my last response above... I did finally get a call from the Torrance sales and service center yesterday, and assume they are same ones working with you. That does not excuse the lack of response from national sales line, which is where most folks would call to get information...

    Sales Dept Unresponsive This Week

    Late yesterday I was contacted by a rep from my local Lucid Studio. I’m not sure whether it was related to the voicemails I left with the national sales number or came through another referral. He reviewed current inventory based on the specs I’m looking for, but unfortunately the choices are...

    Sales Dept Unresponsive This Week

    I decided to try again today... I called main number twice and was asked to leave my name and number for a return call. I then called local Lucid studio number, and it also went to voice mail.. A critical communications breakdown if they want to succeed with direct sales...

    "Open Lane" Matrix--Inspections and Resale

    I find OPENLANE’s role with Lucid pretty interesting. They appear to be more than just the independent company doing lease-end inspections. OPENLANE is also heavily involved in vehicle remarketing and wholesale auctions, including Lucids. My assumption is that its inspection data feeds directly...

    Any recent lease retuns?

    The option to extend the lease for five months definitely offers some breathing room. The downside is that, in most cases, once you go beyond the original turn-in date, you’ll have to pay for another year of registration—which is pretty expensive here in California. You should be able to get a...

    Is The 2027 Air Announcement Imminent?

    DDP and SSP are also key to me, but I want aluminum roof and prefer platinum trim...Hard to find anthing with those options in my color choices. Surprised how few cars are available with SSP. So, surprised to hear that they took a new order for a 2027?? I assume they stopped building 2026...

    Is The 2027 Air Announcement Imminent?

    I am looking for differnt set of features and its a challenge without an option to order . Curious if they are charging you to ship car--or will they eat that cost during the promo?

    Sales Dept Unresponsive This Week

    I hate to complain because I really do want Lucid to succeed, but they’re just not doing some of the basic things right. My Lucid Air lease is almost over, and I’m considering my next car. I’ve now called Lucid Sales three separate times. Each time I’ve sat on hold for several minutes, only to...

    Buying Lucid Off Lease

    I’m looking at possibly buying my Lucid at the end of my lease next month. FWIW, it appears the buyout number may be negotiable below the stated residual, which makes keeping the car more interesting. The odd part is the financing. Bank of America handles Lucid Financial Services, but they...

    I don't think they are taking orders yet for 2027 model.

    Platinum trim touch up?

    Getting ready to turn in my Lucid AIr. I have the platinum trim and have a couple of small chips in the lowest front trim. It is the spoller or air dam at bottom of front bumper ... Just need the right color for tiny bit io of silver/platinum touch up. Suggestions??

    Air software version 2.10.0

    I have been on 2.10 for quite a while and have noticed intermittent issues with blank screens, including the upper display. Until now, I have just done a soft reset and moved on. However, I have now had the rear camera fail for the third time, and on this occasion a soft reset did not restore...

    traded in my air... and got a polestar 3

    I think the Polestar 3 is a very nice car.. However, buying one thinking it will be error free compared to your Air might be an over-reach... A service tech who works on Polestar and Volvo products told me they are sorting things with software and adjustments -- and with them exiting the U.S...

    Is The 2027 Air Announcement Imminent?

    I think they would have mentioned any planned discontinuation of the Air during the 8/4 call. With Lucid continuing to identify its Arizona factory with Air and Gravity production, it seems reasonable to assume the Air will remain in the lineup for now. I also just checked Lucid’s inventory and...

    August Air Pure Promo.

    I saw a Lucid lease promo come through my feed advertising the Air Pure at $699/month, which is pretty much the same deal they’ve been running for a while. Out of curiosity, I followed the link to Lucid’s site, and it only showed one black and one white Air Pure available at that price. Makes...

    Mismatch in body paint/fascia?

    If it was purchased used from Caravana that could be a challenge.. Any chance that the door was repaired and repainted.. ?

    Buying your Air at lease-end

    Used values seem to be softening, likely because so many lease returns are hitting the market right now. I’ve been getting online quotes from CarMax, Carvana, and AutoNation, and they are all very soft—generally in the high $20,000s to low $30,000s. I have a very nice Pure AWD with 26,000...

    Is The 2027 Air Announcement Imminent?

    Yes.. I heard the same thing on call. However, it seems likely that 2027 model will be delayed until current inventory is burned off...
