    Why some EV owners went back to ICE

    That is why Florida Power and Light offers unlimited off-peak EV charging for $31/mo. They supply the charger, but require a 10 year contract.

    Why some EV owners went back to ICE

    I believe in choice. EV or ICE or hydrogen fuel cell, let the market decide. From what I have read on the subject, including a recent study commissioned by Rivian and Polestar, there is not a significant difference in carbon and particulate output, between ICE and EVs, when all aspects of...

    EA Throttling Charge Speed

    What is your state of charge when you begin charging? The Kws your vehicle draws depends on that percentage. I draw 150Kw from both EA locations in Delray Beach and Boca if I am under 45% when I start charging. Search "charging curves" on this forum, or google it, to see the decline in Kws as...

    Lucid software issues

    I suggest a list of bugs and a survey of the owners to identify which are most common, which are the most serious and which are just plain annoying. In my case, the latest update has introduced new errors to my vehicle, most are described in the 2.0.50 thread. It seems that this update has...

    2.0.50

    This update introduced a few problems: 1) No sounds in the vehicle. 2) Surround view not appearing automatically, had to be manually enabled. 3) When surround view was on the pilot screen it remained on at speeds >16 mph, had to be manually exited. 4) Doors locking without tucking in mirrors. 5)...

    2.0.36

    This has happened to my vehicle multiple times. This appears to be a sensor issue. The car thinks the door is open with the door handle extended, but it is locked and closed with the handle extended and unresponsive to commands from the app. The solution is to unlock the vehicle and enter...

    SiriusXM Megathread

    Where I drive Sirius drops out, with the message "no internet available...searching for signal" Then I switch to Spotify and it works just fine. Why does Spotify have connectivity when Sirius can't seem to find it?

    Take a step back......

    I evaluate the Lucid from the perspective of an owner operator. I love driving the car, because it responds instantaneously and silently to pressure on the accelerator, while conveying the impression that the vehicle is glued to the road. It handles well even when cornering at speed. That is...

    Back up camera takes 5-10 seconds to come on

    Same for me. Unavailable occurs far too often, however, it is usually on the pilot screen only, with the top screen showing the front camera view. In addition, I now have to tap the P on the pilot screen to get the surround view when parking, because by the time the camera view appears on the...

    iOS 16 - CarPlay

    I will add to my previous post that I love the GT. It is the best car I have had the pleasure to drive. However, Lucid's communication with it's customers has room for improvement.

    iOS 16 - CarPlay

    I am speaking of my experience with Lucid. See previous posts. My order was delayed, my original VIN never left the factory lot, without any explanation. After complaining, I was issued a new VIN, which was also delayed getting to FL. A part on my vehicle broke on day 1. It took 2 months and...

    iOS 16 - CarPlay

    That may be the case, but Lucid all but promised Android Auto and Apple CarPlay by the end of this year. Over promised and under delivered, Lucid in a nutshell.

    Trim + 3mm tape

    Here is a pic of my frunk trim issue. I can use carpet tape to secure the lining under the gasket, but I will wait until my next service visit to have Lucid sevice reattach it correctly. This is my only trim issue. It was a pleasure meeting you at the Lucid event in West Palm. I find your posts...

    Will EA be the death of EVs?

    One other large EA problem is that charging speed is often limited by EA's software. For instance, I went to a large, 10 charger EA location at a Ft. Lauderdale Walmart, with large 350Kw signs on all the chargers. I plugged in with a 37% full battery and promptly pulled a measly 66Kw. There was...

    2.0.47

    Same issues for me, plus the surround view no longer fills the pilot screen when I am parking. Have to press the P on the pilot screen for the surround cameras to wake up. Camera functionality has degraded with updates since 2.033.
