    Lease Deals are INSANELY GREAT

    There is no way to pay $544 a month for 18 months and have a 60%residual you mentioned earlier 😉

    Zero Vampire Drain in Two Weeks

    I wonder what the cause of the vampire could be. We definitely have a daily loss. Perhaps 1% or less but definitely noticeable in miles. Will know more when I park it at the airport for a while. Maybe communication (WiFi/cell)?

    Gone for two months . . .

    Interesting. Our car loses about several miles of range per day just sitting without being plugged in. I have the battery set to range, not percentage but our daily loss seems more than I expected.

    Lease Deals are INSANELY GREAT

    The issue with direct sales models like Tesla and Lucid is that the lease deals are take it or leave it deals. They are either good or not but not negotiable. With other brands with dealers involved, the numbers become leverage to work better numbers via discounts and knowing and then reducing...

    Lease Deals are INSANELY GREAT

    Not sure what to make of the mentioned numbers. The biggest impact on any lease is the residual, followed by the MF. Those are typically the numbers I look for first. Then I go for zero down as that money is lost when a car is totaled. Since he residual changes by miles per year driven, I often...

    Car will not update. Lucid says needs new telematics module not covered by warranty. Is this normal?

    Such a dumb move to get negative publicity over $1300. No consumer will understand why a newish, very low mileage car with factory warranty doesn’t have this taken care of. Every other luxury brand will do that. It is that simple and the technical merits extensively discussed here are really of...

    Roof box installed w. pics

    The service center installed this due to the glass roof. That said, I would feel comfortable taking it off and then reinstalling them

    Roof box installed w. pics

    Given that Lucid doesn't have its own roof box, here is the next best thing. We also chose the Lucid Crossbars which look very clean and integrated compared some of the standard roof mount stuff. We selected the Thule Motion 3 XL roof box which provides 18 Cu ft. of storage. Looks decent, it's...

    Car will not update. Lucid says needs new telematics module not covered by warranty. Is this normal?

    Ok, this is a very interesting thread. A number of opinions as to who is responsible for making sure the software is up-to-date, if it's ok to have the warranty written as they did, etc. and the opinion of some members that it's not worth beating a dead horse. My thoughts... If Lucid wants to...

    Pet Barrier for cats

    We are taking a trip with cats and are looking for a way to keep the kitties safely in the back and away from the fabric seat back areas. Ideally am looking for a screen/frame that covers the whole area and separates front from back. Some of the dividers/barriers I have seen are also connecting...

    Car will not update. Lucid says needs new telematics module not covered by warranty. Is this normal?

    Warranty aside, there can be many life situations for owners where a timely software updates may not be possible. Likewise, having a car in a service or sales process it would actually be unlikely that software updates would be performed, critical or not. It sounds like the burden is on the...

    Sapphire Nurburging Wet Lap with Mischa

    Understood is a near-prod prototype and believe its moving around the facilities. Not at the ring though... I was hoping to take it for a spin but no dice ;)

    Dashcam Install - NJ

    The Viofo cameras which are known to be delivering some of the best image quality are also USB powered. That list seems to be show a bunch of low-end no-name products.

    Handling between 3 models impressions?

    It looks like you want performance with the EV. The experience will just be a different one than you had with a performance ICE, like the SC Corvette. The butt dyno on an EV is just deceiving (the Smooth mode notwithstanding). You may get the rush of the torque but the speedometer accelerates...

    Why speed limit difference Air Grand Touring vs Air Touring?

    Understood but it misses the point of the thread. Lucid uses the same tires regardless of model (varies by wheel size) so a difference in top speed between models has nothing to do with it (Sapphire excluded of course). The standard process in German cars for example is that the top speed is...

    Why speed limit difference Air Grand Touring vs Air Touring?

    Sorry, but this is just nonsense. I drive the car at 100 to 142 miles an hour on the Autobahn every day. The Pure does the same speed and the GT goes 170 mph which I have also driven. There is no safety limit here. The tires are rated for those speeds and above and the software limits are set...

    Handling between 3 models impressions?

    Have a Touring but drove a GT and a couple of Pure models (metal roof), RWD and AWD. The Pure wins on a lighter and more agile feel while I felt the Touring and the GT drove rather similar, apart from the power. The steering is the same on all cars and feels the same as well. The Lucid beats...
