    I autocrossed my 2023 Lucid Air Pure AWD and here are my comments

    Before the event, I Googled and didn't see any other posts anywhere about an Air being autocrossed so I figured I'd write up some of my experience for others to see. Intro: First, for those who don't know, autocross is essentially a segment race on parking lot, runway, etc. with a bunch of...

    Think there's any chance Lucid will improve the charging curve in future OTA updates?

    Sure, but 84kwh vs 92kwh is pretty close. And I didn't mean for this comparison to only be against the Ioniq 5. The EQE and EQS would have similar results

    Think there's any chance Lucid will improve the charging curve in future OTA updates?

    I was taking numbers from freeway tests, which I believe is the most important when looking at fast charging, because that's when fast charging is needed most: long trips on freeways. In those cases, the two cars appear to get similar mi/kw figures.

    Think there's any chance Lucid will improve the charging curve in future OTA updates?

    The crazy thing is though that the second isn't really true. Using the Ioniq 5 as an example again, it looks like it achieves a real world efficiency of 3.5 mi/kw. Which is exactly what I get. And it charges faster at anything above 40% so realistically, the Ioniq 5 adds more miles per hour than...

    Think there's any chance Lucid will improve the charging curve in future OTA updates?

    You definitely hit it on the head here. Many times, we can't just charge to the exact percentage needed. Or we just want to be safe because you never know about charger availability, etc.

    Think there's any chance Lucid will improve the charging curve in future OTA updates?

    150kw to 72% would even be nice but that's certainly not what happens with the Pure (and I assume therefore also not with the Touring). As Buffalo Bob, sdlucid, and mono mentioned above, the Pure charges much more slowly. Here's a graph of 15 of my fast charges. (charge 13 was not preconditioned...

    Think there's any chance Lucid will improve the charging curve in future OTA updates?

    Battery size does make a difference, but referencing the Ioniq 5 again, it has an 84 kWh battery. At least there was talk about it, though. Means it's on their mind.

    Think there's any chance Lucid will improve the charging curve in future OTA updates?

    Unfortunately, 200 miles is like 60% on a Pure AWD (3.5mi/kwh on a freeway) and that's taking 35-40 min, even starting at a low percent remaining. If I could actually get 200 miles on 12 minutes of charging, that'd be great, but it's not even close. I rarely fast charge, but 40 minutes is...

    Think there's any chance Lucid will improve the charging curve in future OTA updates?

    Wondering if there have been any talk (official or otherwise) about improving the charging curve while fast charging. Right now, the charging curve decreases pretty much linearly from start to finish, whereas some other manufacturers have more of a straight line through 70-80%. I was recently...

    Playlist and USB music.

    Okay, rewording to comply better with forum guidelines (and replying to my old post because editing is no longer available): The most recent update added shuffle but the playlists are still limited to fewer than 500 songs and Alexa will not play music from the USB. Hopefully a future OTA update...

    Playlist and USB music.

    That's what I've done and use the app Musicolet. It works well for my wife (the main profile) where she is able to load up the songs, scroll through the playlists, etc. (still not as good as using a falsh drive but a decent alternative.) Of course, it also means the app needs to be...

    Playlist and USB music.

    The most recent update added shuffle but the playlists are still limited to fewer than 500 songs and Alexa will not play music from the USB. Crazy how a 2015 BMW and 2016 Ford have better integrated music technology than a $100k luxury car of today...

    Any way (other than mute) to make Here maps talk less?

    Dang. In the middle of my second road trip of several hundred miles this month and all these little nuances of Here are really adding up and I'm understanding the overall dislike of the software that I read about on this forum.

    Any way (other than mute) to make Here maps talk less?

    I know most people dislike Here maps (I'm one of them) but I'm not here to discuss all that's wrong with it. I simply want to know if there's a way to make her not say "continue straight" or "continue on the highway" or whatever literally every five minutes.

    Any update on this?

    Any Iowa owners here?

    Hey, just wondering if any of you are from (or know any fellow owners) from Iowa? When taking delivery in January, our (Chicago based) DA said she's helped several Iowa owners. We've lived in the two largest, highest income areas of the state and haven't seen any but there must be some somewhere...

    Test drove the i5 M60 and here are some comparisons

    I have a 2023 Pure AWD First off, as we all know, Lucid's packing is tremendous. We've all heard about "size of an E class but more interior room than an S class". This is clearly seen when comparing to the i5 as well. The backseats of the i5 are truly not big at all. I'm 6'3" and the dealer...

    RESOLVED Is there any way to edit the model/color of the Air on the Pilot Panel?

    Shucks. And we only had the car for about a week or two before the screen changed colors lol

    RESOLVED Is there any way to edit the model/color of the Air on the Pilot Panel?

    Pretty much as the title says. When we first got our car in January, the pilot panel at least had the correct color (red), but it was certainly the wrong trim/specs. After the first update, it's shown a silver car. It's not a huge deal but I'm a bit surprised that this gigantic model of the...
