    Lucid cold weather performance as bad as Tesla

    I recently returned from an 800 mile trip. The temperature was never above 45 and one morning it dipped to 18. I did not have overnight AC charging available. I averaged 3.2m/kWh for the trip In cool weather I set the climate control to no more than 68, dress for the weather, and use seat and...

    Lucid future and possible consequences

    Musk is intentionally attempting to interfere with Lucid's end of year sales push. On this same forum you can find people anxiously waiting for their cars. Musk was "doomsaying" the end of Lucid, but Lucid has funding in place for the 2023 year. It is normal for startups to raise more cash...

    Discount for canceled ordered?

    Lucid appears to be hustling to hit the highest possible end of quarter/end of year delivery numbers. So? It's not like every other automaker doesn't do what they can to pump their numbers. Lucid knows everybody is watching to see if they hit their goals.

    30 Used Lucids for sale

    No doubt there were many intending to flip their cars. A number of people will buy every new car that appeals to them, then sell. But I think one significant driving force behind sales of used Lucids is likely to be the shifting economic tides. Let's say you were a software engineer working in...

    Winter Driving Impression : WOW

    Living in the DFW area I see a couple snow/ice days every 2-3 years. I'm anxious to see how the Air GT's 21s will do in cold and slippery conditions. I have driven summer tires in snow before with mixed results, but that was on much lighter cars.

    Enthusiast Canceling after the Launch event - in Depth Reasons/discrepancies noted

    Many Lucid features are in flux, still under development. Lucid has tried to avoid sharing details of future features as much as possible. I'm sure Tesla's experience with promised features/vehicles has played into that decision. I can understand that someone who insists on a defined list of...

    Ordering and Delivery: Lucid Air Grand Touring

    I was nervous about taking mine in March, but did. Once delivered I thought maybe I would flip it, but after only a week of living with the car I was totally hooked. Even with the balky software of that time the car was so wonderful to be in, to drive, and just so easy to live with. It just...

    Please critique my piece in Barron's

    Just adding a datum: I've had my car since March, 6,000 miles. The recall inspection was done at my home, no fault found. The car has been flawless. It is a joy to own and drive.

    3.2 overall @ 6,000 miles. 3.4 on current 'tank', 3.6 was highest charge to charge. AGT 21s. Mostly driving smoothly, not hypermiling, occasional bursts of fun. confident I could get 4.0 or better if I tried. I learned to hypermile driving earlier EVs. Tire pressure (44 cold Minimum), and...

    Electrify America Membership

    Curious situation. It seems like there is a serious disconnect between Lucid and EA. I an planning a trip in about two weeks and checked my EA app to verify which stations were looking most healthy. Going back to the Lucid app I found most, but not all, EA stations listed as offline, no chargers...

    Q3 Earnings Call questions to Lucid, important that we be engaged

    Our cats must be related. Yes, the shareholder Q&A voting is mostly just for show. It won't lead to questions being read that Peter doesn't want to answer, but it can inform him about what we want to hear.

    Q3 Earnings Call questions to Lucid, important that we be engaged

    After reading through all the semi-literate questions posted (favorites about whether Lucid will sell to the public, an idea for a Lucid motorcycle, and whether Lucid might consider making a 6-7 passenger SUV) my brain is melting. I encourage someone to ask about the number of reservations...
