    Uber and Lucid

    When you start posting a new thread, the forum shows you a list of topics that MIGHT be related that already exist. There are already a couple of threads on this:, here is the main one, the other one is closed, and this will be soon, too: https://lucidowners.com/threads/lucid-partnership.12907/...

    Driving Comparison of the three "cheap" Airs (Pure, Touring and Grand Touring)

    Fantastic review overall. Only thing I'd like to point out as a GT owner is that I practically never do formal launches (ie, launch mode). At the light, I use whatever power is required to be away from everyone else as they're pulling off the line, I prefer not to have cars around me whenever...

    Lucid partnership

    Another article here from Uber's site: https://investor.uber.com/news-events/news/press-release-details/2025/Lucid-Nuro-and-Uber-Partner-on-Next-Generation-Autonomous-Robotaxi-Program/default.aspx Love the sales, but my subjective perception of robotaxis thus far is that the rollouts haven't...

    Yay Hardware upgrade CPU and memory

    The installation process doesn't take that long...but when you add the lead-time for sourcing the part, evidently it does. I'm very, very confused why they're handling it that way. Unless I'm missing something very obvious, then even if they want to order the parts "just in time," they should...

    Hands free Drive Assist! Jul 30. Air first!

    I've encountered a couple of oddities in several hours of use...but NONE where my hands being on the wheel vs sitting on my lap would've made shred of difference. On that basis, I disagree that hands off is useless until the oddities are resolved. Perhaps your observations have been different to...

    let's talk about folding mirrors

    it's not a delay, it simply ignores the click (as described), typically when pulling into the driveway. If I'm parked in the garage about to back out, I deliberately use a longer dead-center click since I'm not operating the vehicle at the time.

    Too Frustrating

    Respectfully, your expectations were unjustified on a few of those fronts. You're made about features which nobody said were there. It's painful to see someone complaining about a car that they didn't research before purchasing. Simply expecting a car to have certain features because it's a...

    let's talk about folding mirrors

    I'm a big user of the folding mirrors due to my narrow garage door. If the mirrors are out, I have less than 1" clnc on each side, a bit of a non-starter with a tight turn into the garage to begin with. As such, use the folding function every single time I arrive home. There are times I'll...

    Yay Hardware upgrade CPU and memory

    more responsive UI. Specifically less delay between when you input a command and receive the desired response. It's the difference between a slow computer and fast computer. That's what it means in the short term. Long term, there might be a time where certain software features are ONLY...

    Hands free Drive Assist! Jul 30. Air first!

    ...no different than it is right now, would be my guess, unless this revision also contains refinements to the model.

    Tinted Windows and Lease Return

    I don't recall the specifics, but I recall reading at least once instance of someone who ended up shorting out some of the electronics during their tint installation as well.

    Hands free Drive Assist! Jul 30. Air first!

    I'm sure that'd be nice, but as someone who has spent quite a bit of time using Drive Asst on recent long trips, I'd say this IS pretty awesome. If you're not actively driving (ie, you are using Drive Assist), it's frustrating to have to keep hands on wheel.

    Hands free Drive Assist! Jul 30. Air first!

    Agreed on Senty, disagree on hands free. As @HC_79 said, it's a mistake to write off the entire system and never revisit it. It being less than perfect does not mean it's unusable. Also, half of the comments in that video appear to show a lack of understanding of its operation (or don't take...

    I took the cagey-ness to imply that it was definitely coming, and not too far away, lol.

    DDPremium->DDPro Upgrade Path

    I don't think people are complaining that premium doesn't have the features. I think they're wanting an attractive upgrade path in the small % of cases where the hardware IS in the car, but the feature isn't enabled (I think it was with the idea of offering demo access to DDPro and the higher...

    DDPremium->DDPro Upgrade Path

    The number of instances where the hardware is already there but the vehicle doesn't have the option is limited to a subset of '22 GT's if memory serves. I hope they don't go for the subscription model and stick with the one-time purchase. I think a reasonable upgrade cost that accounts for the...

    Locked Out until run the update?

    Put me down as "there's no way." Some of the updates take over an hour to run...there's 0% chance they will arbitrarily lock you out of the car to force you to accept an upgrade. Knowingly denying you entry to your own vehicle could be a potential safety issue, on top of being a massive...

    Hands free Drive Assist! Jul 30. Air first!

    I feel bad for Customer Care. Phone boards are going to light up on Jul 30 on 12:01am...."well!!?!?! Where is it?!!" I've not been in a rush for the last few updates, especially 2.7.1, but it's going to be TOUGH to sit tight for what I assume will be 2.8.0. Mercifully, while I used to typically...

    Hands free Drive Assist! Jul 30. Air first!

    It's great news, but all the signs were there that it was coming relatively soon. The tough part was knowing HOW soon. So, I guess in that regard it was unexpected that they have put out a release with a firm date. Very exciting and a huge, huge step forward. I've put on 17k miles in just over a...

    Hands free Drive Assist! Jul 30. Air first!

    Yes, the eye tracking is likely a requirement for regulatory compliance. Hands-free is not meant to imply that you don't need to monitor the system at all. My guess is they wouldn't be allowed to release the feature without the eye tracking capability. This was also referenced at the owner event...
