    Q2 Earnings Call

    I think Lucid’s current lineup has faced some inherent challenges. The Air is a large, low-slung sedan competing in the luxury sport-sedan segment, a category that has not been especially popular in recent years. Meanwhile, the Gravity could have been a much more compelling vehicle if its...

    Q2 Earnings Call

    I listened to the earnings call and they were all sober and candid about their situation... They now need to execute... They also made it clear that they are not going to offer huge discounts and fat incentives to move cars. They would prefer to scale production to demand. They made service...

    Buying your Air at lease-end

    I just checked, and there are currently 381 Lucid Airs listed nationally on Cars.com, with similar numbers on the other major car-sale sites. That inventory is likely to keep growing as more of the cars leased during the federal EV-incentive era begin coming back at the end of their leases. I...

    Is The 2027 Air Announcement Imminent?

    It’s pretty clear Lucid is facing real challenges, but they are hardly alone—many automakers are struggling in the current market. Lucid has strongly denied the bankruptcy reports, issued an SEC statement disputing them, and reportedly retained counsel to explore action over the false reporting...

    Tires on lease return

    You can often find used tires on Ebay which exceed min tread requirement for returnsreasonable prices, but they need to be same make and model as OEM. Same with wheels.

    Returning my Lease soon, a few questions

    I did just get a CarMax bid, but its stupid low in my estimation., They are not aggressive buyers of Lucid's. I will be curious to see what BofA offers as buyout... I actually sold a Macan to AutoNation used car buying group for 2500 more than CarMax offered about 18 months ago

    Is The 2027 Air Announcement Imminent?

    That would make them rely on the Gravity as only product for the next year.... That would be tough.... It would also tank resale on all of the Air returns hitting them. I don't think that is likely.. They could tighten things and simplify production by limiting to two drivetrains or some...

    Returning my Lease soon, a few questions

    Once again...it appears that Car Max is not interested in Lucid.. Just curious if anybody has actually gotten a buy quote from them

    Vote to bring back old seat belt logo cos new one sucks horribly

    I agree that it is ugly, but I have gotten used to it.... They might revise with the major update downstream

    Possible Sign of Service Improvements

    My source told me that it was going to be a service center... not necessarly a full-fledged studio, but he might not have all details.. He said they are going to split up some of the BH team to new DTLA location and hire new techs to cover needs in both locations

    Stuck on Navigation Screen

    For second time since last update 2.10.0 my lower screen stays stuck on map view when i want to access climate control screen.. Pressing Fan button does not open the climate screen as is typical. I have fixed with soft reset twice, but this seems to have only recently occurred after...

    Lucid is Nuts….

    I feel the same way. Before my Air, I owned several big sports sedans, including multiple Panameras and a BMW 850. The Air stays flatter, goes faster, offers more interior space, and delivers exceptional comfort. That said, I think it naturally appeals to older drivers—myself included—because...

    Layman perception

    In some parts of L.A., Lucids are actually pretty common. There are three Fathom Blue Airs at my club, and the other day I accidentally got into someone else’s car thinking it was mine. Meanwhile, one of the best things Lucid could do right now would be to issue a clear, affirmative...

    A good way to check battery health?

    Is there a way to get this information for a car not registered with Lucid owner credentials by just using VIN.. It would be a great tool to screen a used Lucid to ensure battery health.

    Is The 2027 Air Announcement Imminent?

    I'm in a similar position.. I have a '23 Pure AWD and like it, but updates and improvements have been made since '23, and tweaks could be in store for the '27.. .. Bear in mind that you can also extend your lease up to 5 months at same rate and amortization.

    Is The 2027 Air Announcement Imminent?

    Thats good news. Was it a "pull-forward" lease into your gravity .. as I know that program would waive 1k in damage if you started a new lease early.
