    Camera lag/delay

    I had this problem before, you might try to get them to do remote diagnostics service. Ultimately they found a bad wire harness that was causing my blind spot and 360 to fail 90% of the time and just not load.

    Camera lag/delay

    Was the ultrasonics registering the distance correctly? Just trying to get context to laggy, if its the actual camera view or the distance on the display. I do get about a second of lag as well; but I am moving so slowly in the garage that I would have trouble hitting anything?

    EA Experiences Recently

    The amount of EVs in my area has exploded higher, to the point I regularly see other Lucids there in line. The main problem is a bunch of slow charging cars trying to get their free charging to 100% SOC and taking up space. This is EA specifically, If I drive an extra 8 miles I can usually...

    Tire/Wheel Discussion

    The All-terrain tires are inefficient on rolling resistance because they need to grab onto gravel and rocks:) They also have a lot of give in the tread to compress.

    Choosing gravity GT vs DE

    True the difference in the performance of a Plaid vs LR is much greater than a DE to GT. Rivian is kind of in the middle. But those are also what Lucid must compare to, DE vs quad Rivian.

    Choosing gravity GT vs DE

    Gravity should be running shorter gear ratio, they said using the RWD Pures 8.7:1. Again top speed not going to be a thing for a larger SUV.

    Residual value DE vs GT

    Agree with @DeaneG, the DE and GT are ultimately still luxury cars that depreciate like crazy. The DE isn't actually limited or special enough to retain more value, especially with the existence of a Sapphire around. SUVs almost never hold value unless they are G-Wagen style off-roaders. They...

    OOS - Gravity Charging

    This is why I can wait for the touring; it charges so well that it negates any downside of bigger wheels or smaller battery. And Tesla Supercharger access means I don't have to wait in line for charging while my pre-conditioning eats all the battery or runs out and cools back down....

    Interesting Results from Recent Road Trip

    I guess what I was getting at was there a significant drop in HVAC consumption between using manual and all zones in automatic? I looked up the elevation change it was about 40 ft.

    MotorTrend review 2025 Air Pure -- Positive First Test

    The pure on 19in wheels will definitely do 5 mi/kwhr on the EPA drive cycle without charging losses included. From Car and Driver's explanation of testing their real-world vs EPA. "That's why there are two terms used: efficiency, which can be expressed in MPGe, includes charging losses, while...

    Throttle response, power delivery

    The Smooth and Swift modes are at 50% power reduction on the touring, and have a ramping effect to power from the accelerator for off-line and drive-ability in traffic. Sprint is full beans and instant response. Sometimes on the highway I have felt some sort of 'old-school' gas style...

    MotorTrend review 2025 Air Pure -- Positive First Test

    That and their conflicting statement about the Sapphire being slower in the Quarter Mile than the recently tested Porsche Taycan GT Weissach. "The Lucid Air is a car of extremes. Just a little over a year ago, a Lucid Air Sapphire prototype melted its tires and our minds after putting down the...

    Third Midsize model Speculation

    I thought they said a Crossover, an SUV and some sort of off-roady thing?

    What does “Ready” mean?

    Interesting, I have had the car balk at going into drive if anything is open, or not open anything in D. I suppose it's possible to manually open the doors.

    What does “Ready” mean?

    Ready to move, meaning not in park. And no errors/issues with drive. It is probably a superfluous message in reality...

    Miles/Kwh

    Mine is inverse, kids and wife crank up the HVAC and heated seats just like the home:) I use all the kwh for acceleration and NOT AC:)

    Q1 2025 deliveries and production announced

    Except apparently Tesla and Rivian's, who reported pretty poor delivery numbers.

    Yeah but Q1 is generally soft for most automakers, except this year everyone flooded to buy cars before tariffs raised the prices...
