    Q4 2022 Earnings Preview Article

    Lucid will stay in business as stated above by @Shuasha. Lucid's issue is somewhat different. Competition is coming up with cars that are good quality and at lower cost. Look at announcements from Genesis and price reduction from tesla- Those provide viable alternatives. If Tesla had not dropped...

    How Much Range Are You Actually Getting?

    Your data is what i generally get with Model S also in Northeast. And i drive around same speeds of 80, mainly highway miles. You can expect 3.5 to 3.8 range spring through fall easily. Driving at 80 vs. 60 is an easy 20% hit to range.

    How Much Range Are You Actually Getting?

    Stopping heating of the car helps but a little. Most KWH still go in keeping battery warm and running. If you use your iphone in a very cold temperature, you will see the same effect. Lith-Ion batteries discharge very quickly in very cold temperature. Maybe it has something to do with keeping...

    How Much Range Are You Actually Getting?

    I read a reddit article the other day from a New England driver who had just taken delivery for the Rivian R1S. Their range dropped to barely 50% during peak cold days of Polar Vortex a few weeks back. I drive a Model S right now and usually am driving at 80+ and I get 40%+ range drop in winter...

    How Much Range Are You Actually Getting?

    How do you find the ride and interiors of Pure? I have a touring booked and it only gives slightly more range, albeit a bit better interiors.

    How Much Range Are You Actually Getting?

    I am in Boston area and curious to hear what folks around Boston, colder regions are seeing in mi/kWh. I drive a Model S 100D and while range is 335, I get around 220 max these days- I tend to drive fast on highways 75+. Any perspectives would be helpful in mi/kWh in colder climate below 30F.

    Touring Test drive impressions

    Tahoe is my choice for interiors as well. Santa Cruz, while I love, seems a bit too high maintenance. I am a bit surprised with Lucid’s decision to have fabric in areas that face your feet I.e. in between dash and Floor mats. Does anyone have any issues with keeping that area clean given its...

    Touring Test drive impressions

    I liked CS as well. Even though White looks stunning, I feel it will be very high maintenance. My Model S is black so looking for a different color this time around.

    Touring Test drive impressions

    Went to Boston Seaport today and test drove Touring with 20” wheels. Loved the ride vs. my Model S. Infact ride back home confirmed what I always hated about Tesla - Bad suspension, road and wind noise, creaks. Not only that, the interiors in Touring were classy, comfortable and worthy of a...

    Goodbye #4?

    Did you not reserve your car and sign binding agreement? That would have ensured 7.5K tax credit.

    Sad Farewell #3

    We had the same Concern and ended up buying a gently used Tesla Model S 100D and have been very happy with our decision. The car works like a charm every time and have had no issues and have driven 6K miles in last three months. I still have my Touring reservation though. We will likely buy...

    Touring or Pure

    When I talked to my advisor, she told me AWD will have similar HP as Touring. It is hard to believe AWD will have same HP as RWD.

    Model S vs Audi vs Polestar Impressions

    I have a question for owners who have both Model S and Lucid about body strength, flex and driving impressions. We have a Touring and a Pure reservation and also have a Rivian Reserved. Since Lucid and Rivian were going to take longer to arrive, we bought a relatively new Pre Owned Model S 100D...

    More Software Bugs

    Could not agree more on Yoke being a problem with Plaid and that forced me to buy older 100D. Eventually, i Will buy lucid once issues are resolved.

    More Software Bugs

    Well, here’s hoping all those issues are resolved before you get your delivery! I am sure ultimately, everyone will enjoy their Lucid. But it can be frustrating in the interim. I am a bit particular about things and expect them to work Most times so am usually not an early adopter. But I do try...
