So, I have a 2025 Air Pure, but through the wonders of a couple of trips to the shop, I have been able to put more than 100 miles on both the Air Touring and Grand Touring. TLDR: The absolute brute force of the Grand Touring is fun, but after driving all three, I like driving my Pure best...

Massage seats are the one thing I splurged on. I am not sorry, they are great.

I just use Lucid navigation. It's fine. The only thing I use CarPlay for is playing music and podcasts. (okay, I'll admit it, also text messages).

Yeah, it's not a unique to Lucid problem, but man, it is annoying and it's been very surprising to me to discover how it seemed to have the capability to mess up everything audio at one point or another. Life is so much better now that I have accepted that I need to just plug in my phone when I...

Wireless CarPlay is at the root of most software weirdness. YMMV, but I went back to wired and I haven't had to reboot since then (admittedly, only a few weeks, but impressive given past performance).

People’s experience and expectations vary a lot. I have had a 25 Air Pure for three months and will have had it to the service center twice - once to get the second key fob programmed and next week to get the frunk adjusted (it sometimes doesn’t think it is closed when it is closed). These...

So I have a 25 Air pure and love the Frunk. I use it all the time. Lately I have noticed that a portion of the time I will close the frunk (manually - I don’t have the powered one) and it will close correctly and cinch down, but it will still show as open on my interior display and app. I...

My almost new 25 Pure (Built October 2024, bought at the tail end of December) shows a battery health of 96.5 - kind of annoying…

It was even a little bit better. I realized I misremembered- actually efficiency was 3.79 m/kwh

Moderate - I was thinking about this too - the snow was heavy and wet enough I wouldn’t have been surprised had it turned off at some point, but it didn’t seem affected.

I drove 392 miles round trip today from D.C. to western PA. Weather was lousy. 20 mph sustained crosswind Rain and then snow Temps started out around 50 but were below freezing by time I got to my destination. All these things (and freeway driving) hobbled range. My whole trip average was...

I think the really telling thing to watch is if this team stays in place going forward. If they do, it probably means this is the right call, and Lucid still has a good chance to execute its goals in the mid-term future. If not, well, that's a bit scary.

Yes, the ability to adjust absolutely everything about the seats, particularly the side bolsters (for me) is really great. It's so nice to have seats that fit exactly right.

I love the massaging seats. I am so glad I got them as my one splurge on an otherwise base car. The only thing on the comfort and convenience package I miss is the power frunk... but otherwise not having it is a non-issue for me.

There is a lot of enthusiasm about Chinese EVs out there. At the same time, watching the various video reviews, seems like they aren't entirely up to western standards yet for handling, and much of the technology is awesome in concept but less good in execution. There are also challenges, such...

They do seem to be slowly, slowly producing more. There is drone video of the Lucid factory shot in the last couple of weeks that shows two outside being loaded into a transporter (probably bound for Saudi Arabia- they had CCS ports). Personally, I don't understand doing a launch this way -...

Yes, it’s not clear. Definitely a fairly deep design/odd software/odd hardware interaction. They just tried things until something worked. I’ll test both of the fobs when I pick it up and confirm it works. If it does, I’ll be happy and then put the fobs in their box and keep using my phone...

Well, it looks like they got it fixed - 8 days (but really five business days). I haven't picked it up yet, but below is what their notes are about what went into getting it working again. Sounds very frustrating, but glad they got it dealt with.

Ahh. It’s nice not to be alone at least. They tried pulling down the headliner and even installing a new ECU. Now they are moving on to replacing the “central antenna” (I think I have that right). I am glad I have a loaner - that makes me less grumpy, but what a pain for everyone involved.

Oh my. heh, well the race is on, Audi vs. Lucid to the Key Fob finish line: I'll report back in when I get it back.
