    All your points are great! I am NOT asking Lucid to abandon the EPA raings. What I am asking for is to augment their claim with a "US Hwy 70-75 mph estimated range". The fact that after 5 years selling cars, users are still surprised, frustrated, and disappointed at the efficiencies they...

    typically, gas cars get better mileage at highway speeds, up to a point (say 75mph), whilst, EVs are the opposite. I don't know your driving habits. It is what it is. As long as you are happy, that's what matters!

    Other than my repetitiveness (as a public service) to remind the forum of the contradictions, why is it harmful? Truth hurst, right? A FORUM is a pace to debate. AI Overview Yes, a forum can be a place to debate, though its primary purpose is broader communication, open discussion, and...

    The Germans wear their Lederhosen with belts AND suspenders. Lucid and Tesla wear sagging pants!

    Anyone up for auto insurance rate comparisons?

    Well, not to debate the fine points. I bought my Lucid 2022 AGT in October 2022. In my first year, I thought the insurance and licensening fees (AZ) were outrageous. Now, in 2026 going to 2027, my Lucid licensing and insurance rates and noticeably lower. That's good news, right? Perhaps...

    So, let me ask you, why do German EVs (BMW, Porsche) tend to deliver efficiencies performance (Yes, quoting EPA numbers) much closer to their claims than Lucid or Tesla? When long range endurance races were run (e.g., OOS's I-90 (Seattle to Boston, Canadian border by Maine to Key West)), given...

    Yes, you are likely going to get EPA range if you drive approx. 20% on highways and the rest on city streets. Better yet, if you just drive on a dynamometer, in doors, control temperature, no wind, etc., you will get the EPA number. But what good is that?! Lucid can continue to quote EPA...

    Yup! This has been Lucid' practice. They cite the EPA test results and the implied range. In that respect, technically, it is consistent. Reality is, if YOU interpret Lucid's EPA range as "I am going on a road trip, driving mostly on an US highway from Point A to Point B (say 300 miles...

    Only if you drive the EPA 5-cycle routine; avg of 48 mph! Typical US Hwy efficiency on 19", moderate climate is about 3.2-3.5 mi/kWh, or approx. 380mile range on an AGT.

    2024 Air Touring - Tire Change Shock

    Agree with @socktucker. Go to Discount Tires if they are in your neighborhood. Costco is good as well. But some Costco don't want to touch a Lucid (Air) 19" PZ4 tire is about $250 a piece (free mounting). As for wheels, that can be anything you want to spend. I'd suspect between $300-$400 a...

    Don't knock it! That what made VW and Toyota! Seriously, "gee-Weeze High Tech" is great. But it has to work. The top niche of automobiles will not be able to sustain a company like Lucid. Look at Jaguar! For Lucid to stay afloat, it must be relevant in the sub $50k space. The BMW 3 series!

    I hope Lucid's service center performance will improve in the coming year. The status-quo is unacceptable. That said, for Cosmos to penetrate the mid-segment market in earnest, Lucid must have a robust (HW/SW) entry, competitive pricing, and convenient access to service. The status quo of...

    Thanks for posting. Was there a clear objective of this event? What is the process and what are the "deliverables"?
