    Why is No One Talking About All of the Improvements to the 2025 GT?!?

    Yes, there is indeed significant amount of energy overhead during DCFC charging. I think there are some quantification of this in SoC's website (State-of-Charge). The exact amount of overhead is clearly dependent on the ambient temperature, length of the charging cycle, etc.. My recollection...

    Why is No One Talking About All of the Improvements to the 2025 GT?!?

    Ummm....were the Model S and the Taycan also tested at 80mph? The Model S and the Taycan both have higher drag coefficient, correct? If so, @momo3605's point has validity, correct? Physics should work the same for all 3 cars, right?

    Not a winter car?

    Exactly! A small accident with the Lucid in a snow storm can sideline the car for months, waiting for parts, and cost thousands or over $10k for parts, sensor recalibration etc..

    Not a winter car?

    First, all the power to you! The official spec for 19" wheels is 4.9". It is not measured from the bumper to the ground.

    Not a winter car?

    Snow melt/refreeze or freezing rain are the issues. I have never driven my AGT in snow. That said, I used to live/drive in Canada (relatively flat area) and Oregon (hill country) for many years. AWD made a huge difference in the traction. I had a Volvo (242DL) which was not particularly good...

    Not a winter car?

    The exposure is on unplowed roads with the low Lucid Air clearance. If you are getting through, all the power to you.

    Not a winter car?

    Well now, a Subaru, 😉! I used to have a Subaru before. Great car, for winter driving. I don't live in cold climate area any more. If I did, I would never drive my Lucid AGT in an unplowed road, or in freezing rain. The clearance is simply way too low to deal with winter eventualities...

    Is Lucid your only car?

    Ah, Buffalo! I used to be your neighbor, from Toronto! Buffalo gets all the snow!😉

    Not a winter car?

    I grew up in cold climate (Canada). Winters are -20F to -40F. I don't know how the door handles would fare with ice/freezing rain. I can see them frozen shut. Honestly, with the Lucid Air's low riding height, batteries in subzero climate, I would be concerned if the Lucid Air is my only...

    Known errors ( please list)

    Pilot screen freezes or goes black once in a while. Inexplicably, it starts asking for PIN. When that happens, it might persist for days or goes away after a few incidences. Another owner said that's a Bluetooth error (when the car fails to see the Mobile Key?). "Hey Lucid" chimes in...

    Open letter to Lucid after 7 months of ownership

    Does anyone still encounter the Lucid asking for PIN verification? It does happen offer, but it happens. No rhythm or reason. I don't know why.

    Open letter to Lucid after 7 months of ownership

    To your other point of whether Microsoft and Apple publish roadmaps, they do. These companies might not publish their roadmaps to the general consumers, but they share their roadmaps with their key partners such as HW manufacturers. Long ago, they recognize that the SW and HW must both arrive at...

    Open letter to Lucid after 7 months of ownership

    I think you are embellishing what was asked by the forum readers. We are NOT asking for a 10 year roadmap of what SW/HW will be implemented. We are asking what happened to the features that were promised and charged for are going to be implemented and by when? Examples below: First, Lucid...

    Open letter to Lucid after 7 months of ownership

    I don't doubt Lucid is "aware" of their SW exposure. The question herein is, what are they doing about it, and are they actively communicating with the customers and setting expectations. A large part of this thread is the "radio-silence" on SW from Lucid. I think it is great that Rawlinson...

    Open letter to Lucid after 7 months of ownership

    @Green G's posting, together with @cgm9999's posting, raise the correct issues. The current Lucid owners are mostly drive-enthusiasts. We are intrigued by the technology, the efficiency, the range, the acceleration, the handling, etc.. In as Sadistic way, we actually love to go figure out how...

    Open letter to Lucid after 7 months of ownership

    SW has been the Archies's Heel for Lucid. And yes, Rawlinson admitted that much. He says he is going to take personal charge to correct. That was more than 4 month ago. To date, there has not been updates, roadmaps, and schedule to address these issues. The "radio-silence" is the issue...

    Open letter to Lucid after 7 months of ownership

    Well, YES and NO....Lucid "lowered" their base pricing (e.g., on the Air AGT and other trims) but made many thigs "optional" (360 camera, travel charger, DDP, etc.). As an example, if you look at the Gravity pricing, the entry trim (2 row, no tow pkg, etc.) is below $100k. By the time you...

    Open letter to Lucid after 7 months of ownership

    Bear in mind that UX 1 was 3 years ago. I never experienced it. My AGT, acquired in Oct 2022, had UX 2 on it. I was constantly reminded by other forum members that "Lucid has made great advances. You should have seen UX 1.0". I am glad I never had the pleasure of experiencing UX 1.0. My...
