    Anyone who has not done PPF/ceramic coating?

    Curious to know if anyone has not done PPF and/or ceramic coating and if they can share their experience. Wondering if PPF is that important. The cost for getting even the front of the car done ain’t cheap and can easily use that money later, if required, for paint. We have never done PPF on our...

    Delay Order

    Not sure if you can delay but even selling any vehicle in this market is tough. You may want to keep some buffer time unless you are willing to do a fire sale.

    Ordering and Delivery: Lucid Air Touring

    I agree with the above assessment. I have test driven both GV60 as well as GV80 electrified. Both appear smaller inside than Air.

    How Much Range Are You Actually Getting?

    That's not correct for Colder regions like Boston/NY/NH/Maine. e.g. My electricity bill is 35c/KWH including Transmission and Generation charges, yes Eversource rates are bad. 8KWH consumption charges my Tesla Model S for 26 Mile range. so $2.80 for 26 miles. If I get only 65% of the stated...

    How Much Range Are You Actually Getting?

    You may still be in the first 2k Mile threshold that others have talked about and may see a bump to at least 60% in similar conditions. This is what I have realized owning an EV- expect about 60% of stated range in winter for cars like Tesla or even Lucid that have a different EPA test than...

    How Much Range Are You Actually Getting?

    The real issue is slightly compounded. If we actually charge for 500 miles and get only 300, electricity charging cost then is higher than gas in many states. That begins to erode some of the benefits of EV value proposition along-witb creating a range anxiety or a hassle of charging and...

    How Much Range Are You Actually Getting?

    At what speeds do you normally drive? And at what temperature are you seeing range drop to 50%? 50% of stated range is unheard of unless you are driving 85+ with temps in single digit F or negative.

    Tesla Price Decrease

    I don’t think German’s can easily catch-up with Lucid. Lucid’s effort is ground up engineering and has been done using first principles. No one can create a car with such a small motor and battery tech without superb in-house innovative engineering. German cars have not shown that sort of...

    Tesla Price Decrease

    Even with LiDAR and sensors, solving for full self driving or something meaningful ain’t that easy. The leader in self driving is actually not Tesla, it’s Google’s Waymo. However, google won’t license technology just like Android Auto till they are sure it is actually safe. Lucid will have a...

    Tesla drops price for Model S/X further

    Model S cut by 5K to $89,900 and X by 10k to $99,990. This may further pressure Lucid to keep $7500 rebate longer than planned.

    Q4 2022 Earnings Preview Article

    I agree with your assessment. I will have to say Rivian has managed this aspect better than Lucid. They cut down on Ocean interior immediately and delayed it when they realized they needed to get more cars out. Similarly, now, they have delayed quad motor R1S in favor of dual motor reservations...

    Q4 2022 Earnings Preview Article

    I agree with you and this is what I mentioned in earlier post that there are alternatives available. But Lucid has lowered the price point by $7500. In the end demand and supply mechanics drive prices to the equilibrium.

    Q4 2022 Earnings Preview Article

    And why would we want to pass the judgment on a company that is clearly trying hard to not only survive but thrive. It’s always easy to say something will fail or won’t work, it’s much harder to make something Work. We all have a choice on what we deem is right for us but let’s not try to...

    Q4 2022 Earnings Preview Article

    Tesla did not make any money for a long time either. However, the markets wanted it to succeed. It was a pioneer. Lucid has a great power train that enables a very spacious and comfortable luxury car. Nothing else is close so fear of Lucid going under is a bit exaggerated. Buy the car if you...
