Totally agree. And I do think a roadster is a perfect trim to experiment with this concept. I don't need more than 200 miles from my "fun" car. An EV that's actually somewhat "lightweight" compared to today's EVs could be very fun to drive.

Just curious. I'm not an expert on tire failure. Ultimately, it's Pirelli's responsibility if the tire did have a defect. But Lucid may help confirm that. I'd imagine they'd at least want the report, for the record. Maybe they've seen something similar before?

Rawlinson has suggested on several occasions that the key to getting the cost down to $50k ish is a much smaller pack. They will make up for that with lighter weight, better efficiency, etc. But I'm thinking he means much, much smaller than Air. At the same time, I can't see Lucid releasing a...

Probably a combination of hitting something and perhaps a defect on that particular tire? I agree, it's a weird looking pop. I'm very curious what Lucid or Pirelli would have to say.

The point of this forum is most certainly not to vent. We make that pretty explicit here, including in our guidelines. The point of the forum is to help people who need information or are looking for workarounds or solutions. There are thousands of places to vent on the internet. This is not...

The plan is to keep the price down on mid-size. So I'm not expecting Air range. But that would be an excellent bonus. I agree, I'd much rather have a sedan than anything else. But I'm not sure Lucid will do it, given the market. There are supposed to be three variants, so here's hoping…

It is coming. I swear. The Lucid team is very devoted to improving the audio. And they consider it a continuing process, not by any means a one-and-done. I think the holiday and Gravity software deadline has slowed down the OTA train a bit.

It really depends. If FSD is super important to you, Lucid is probably not the best brand for you. It's a driver's car. The joy comes from operating it yourself and wanting to be the best possible driver in a machine that let's you drive it like a trained professional. The HA features are more...

Wholeheartedly agree. A lot will depend on how good mid-size ends up being. Or if there is something other than a crossover variant. If they make a little "hot hatch" or sedan I could see myself eventually replacing my Air with that. If they only do a crossover, I'll likely stick with the Air...

I’m sitting at one now. But your point is valid.

Seriously. Let’s get back on topic. This isn’t a Tesla fan site. Any further discussion that is off topic will be removed.

Not as far as anyone knows. From what I’ve gathered talking to various Lucid folks, the plan is for Air and Gravity to have the same DDP features moving forward. The equipment in the Air is capable of everything they are currently planning on building. At least for the next several years...

Until I'm in the tres commas club, I'm more than happy to have standard doors.

Old-school sleuthing. Love it.

I wouldn't expect it from the team at large. Just one particular individual who has a history of Lucid hate. So long as he remains distracted, Lucid may just be able to get this deal through.

You're inserting a middle man between the pedal and the brakes, in other words. Regardless of when you are braking via pedal or letting off the accelerator.

I'm not sure about this scenario. But I would imagine if they are going to "programmatically" apply the brakes, that would mean the brake pedal is talking to a computer, not directly connected to the brakes anymore. Since letting off the accelerator would also have to control the braking system.

It's the first time Lucid is officially saying it's built on SoundHound, I believe. Although we already knew that.

I seem to remember one of the recent Gravity videos. Perhaps Out of Spec? The Lucid rep said they feel blended regen just doesn't feel right compared to a direct connection on the brake pedal, or some such. I was barely paying attention while watching it.

Interesting. For me, the old app was sapping battery in the background excessively. And then whatever Apple changed in 18.1 stopped it from happening. The new app doesn't even show up on my list of battery usage at times, the drain is so low. This is on 18.2 and now 18.3 beta. Mostly it's under...
