    Q1 Production 2314 cars

    I take it as the work force reduction just happened recently and the production numbers is for the whole reporting period. So, its not like the reduction played a big role. The ongoing concern is they made 2,314 cars and delivered just 1,406. The optimistic side is they are having trouble...

    Q1 Production 2314 cars

    Word of mouth! I'm not a marketing guy but I don't really hear or see anything about lucids so hopefully the CEO is right that it's just a messaging issue.

    Q1 Production 2314 cars

    You can. I was on the phone with financials and at the end of 4 yrs @ 10k they were saying the residual was ~48k interest around 8.6% all in like 140k which is pretty much GT money for a T. I never leased ether, but they do a nice job explaining the process at least.

    Q1 Production 2314 cars

    This is me right now. My car should be shipping any day now from AZ and I'm pretty concerned about the longevity. I keep looking at the lease numbers even though the rates are insane. I am still looking to roll the dice and hoping that they'll get $ if needed from PIf and Gravity hits it big...

    NY Autoshow

    Anyone know if Lucid is going to be at the NY Autoshow this weekend? I've been trying to find some mention of lucid, but there doesn't seem to be any info.

    Dead with 10 miles of range

    I think I'd personally only go down to 10% as well, probably not even. But from videos of people on longer road trips they'll say go low because then you'll be able to charge faster during the stops. I don't understand the physics of it but batteries have an easier time charging the lower the...

    Dead with 10 miles of range

    The concern here is if the car is saying there is 10 miles left then I'd be expecting 10 miles. 10 miles is a pretty good distance, especially when so much talk about taking advantage of the charging curve is to run it low before juicing it.

    Took delivery today. The good and the ugly of the process.

    I do not think that is just you. Those gaps look bad. What did they say when you asked to get it fixed?

    Any cautions about driving for the first time immediately after delivery?

    Congrats on the car. I'd probably subconsciously drive a bit more defensively just because it's new and expensive. If bad things happen it's probably due to other people on the road. Otherwise, same rules as any other car with big HP. Mind the conditions and don't mash it in a corner. The...

    Electric Snobbery?

    That's great to hear. This being my first EV the fact that I can't wrench on it to fix things or take it to non "dealership" is worrying. I may be overthinking here since we have that 4 yr warranty, but I tend to keep cars until the wheels fall off. I think that's it for me. The range is a big...

    Electric Snobbery?

    Obliviously not alone going by the comments here lol. But I'm still very much an ICE guy for certain types of cars. When it comes to weekend fun a manual transmission and the Elise or s2k means I'm a happy camper. For an all around experience where I know where I'm going and coming is why I'm...

    Lucid future and possible consequences

    A HUD would have really made this car perfect for me. It's really the one thing I want that it doesn't have. The EQS with the AR arrows for navigation looked very useful.

    Lucid future and possible consequences

    There is a lot of talk about production numbers, but where is Lucid at with actual deliveries? I think that's the important part because it shows demand. The big concern I have is that I'm going to be left with a car that is mechanically unserviceable if Lucid tanks. Forget about weird...

    Lucid Layoff

    I never leased before. The cars I'm rolling around are from 06, 08 and 12 just to give you a glimpse of my psyche lol. You've given me some things to think about. So the hedge is: if Lucid tanks you just give the car back and you are free? If at the end of the lease and you want to keep the...

    Greetings from NYC

    Lurking for awhile and recently got my invitation to order. It's been a long month trying to decide between the Pure and Touring. But I think I'm going with the Touring in Zenith and Mojave. But oh how I wish Fathom blue was available on Touring now that I've seen it. I got like 3 days to...

    Lucid Layoff

    My one big reservation about Lucid is the question if the company survives. I've got 3 days left to place my order and I'd be lying if this thought didn't cross my mind. I'm not a baller by any means. I'm much more of a Ioniq 5N and buying used kind of a car. The lucid credit and legacy pricing...
