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

    Good to know they are thinking about getting lane centering with standard DreamDrive. I understand the resistance, $10,000 is a lot for us as consumers to swallow and it's also a lot for them to give up. I suggest them to think about the balance between making money on each vehicle vs making...

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

    The word "communication" in his title makes it even more sarcastic. Even he was right, he should've focus on the fact rather than attacking a journalist. It almost looks like he somehow forgot he was representing Lucid.

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

    I don't know who Jeff is and I didn't read the whole story but from the language he used, this guy should find a job somewhere else. 🙂

    Lucid Launch Event

    Can you backoff from a binding order? https://www.lawinsider.com/dictionary/binding-order Looks like this depends on Lucid to decide whether you can.

    Not buying now after I saw this

    I bet the Pure will hold its value well but I might be wrong given the fact that we are in a recession.

    ? Questions from Launch Event on Pure

    It has less to do with weight than the motor itself. PM motors create magnetic drag when they are being driven. This is why model 3 dual-motor uses one PM motor one induction motor. And this is the same reason Polestar and some other manufacturers use clutches to discount PM motors for greater...

    ? Questions from Launch Event on Pure

    No matter what the EPA number says, RWD will always be more efficient. This is especially true for PM motors.

    7500 EV tax credit update with new bill

    I also think the IRS is unlikely to fine us if we do file our tax credits given the number of consumers and manufacturers impacted. They might get themselves into lawsuits if they insist to do so.

    7500 EV tax credit update with new bill

    Lucid even mentioned "binding order" in their order agreement. Does that mean it's enforceable? For my understanding, a contract with 5% down payment is a binding contract but a binding contract doesn't necessarily have to have a 5% down as long as it's enforceable under State law and does not...

    It wouldn't be a surprise.

    [Lucid Air Pure] To Dual or Not To Dual, that is the question

    Peter mentioned that Touring will be the most efficient model of the line which explained the range difference. I don't know how to explain the HP difference.

    [Lucid Air Pure] To Dual or Not To Dual, that is the question

    I highly doubt it's limited by the battery. Pure has the same battery as Touring but with way less power.

    [Lucid Air Pure] To Dual or Not To Dual, that is the question

    I really wish they could succeed. They should focus not only on their technologies but more on their business model as well. It's kind of crazy to think about 90% of their cars are going to be limited by software. Maybe they will open up a software upgrade at a price in the future? But I still...

    [Lucid Air Pure] To Dual or Not To Dual, that is the question

    I agree. But they should've done it at the beginning. It's too late to do so to not upset Touring customers.

    [Lucid Air Pure] To Dual or Not To Dual, that is the question

    IMHO, they should combine Touring and Pure into one model and give everything we got for the hardware.

    [Lucid Air Pure] To Dual or Not To Dual, that is the question

    If that's the case, it provides a useful signal that they might have too many models which drives up the cost.

    [Lucid Air Pure] To Dual or Not To Dual, that is the question

    I was told that the motor is capable of producing 670 hp. I really don't understand the rationale behind limiting the attractiveness of their products but with no benefits of reducing the cost. It will only make them less competitive this way.

    Lucid Launch Event

    For folks who reserved Pure last year, this sounds like they are under delivering.

    Lucid Launch Event

    Why is Touring more efficient than Pure? Would it be the glass canopy roof being more slippery so that the drag coefficient is lower? Or it's just a marketing techniques to lure us to spend more?
