It’s Lucid’s fault for making the vehicle so comfortable on long drives.

Strike a deal with Tesla to use their network and eventually adopt NACS. A premium vehicle deserves a premium network. This is akin to buying the highest end 8K TV only to watch 480p content from 2001.

I was also told the same thing. Upon disassembly, single use clips are torn and many undamaged parts necessitated replacement. In the efforts of engineering the vehicle to death to save every cubic millimeter, we’re now left with a hugely expensive vehicle to repair should even the slightest...

Well, I recall Kyle Connor doing a YouTube video on how crappy charging of certain EA units is in cold weather. So really, EA has no good seasons. It more like when does it suck the least…

Eerily similar damage to my car. Repair cost $19K at the only Lucid approved shop. For some odd reason the absolutely undamaged headlight on the side of the damage also had to be replaced in my case. Frankly obscene, but I at least feel a bit better knowing that my shop wasn’t the only one...

I also got that message last summer when the listing said “coming soon”. Here we are 52 weeks later….

To your point, the fact that when I’m out of town for a week and downright miss driving the car speaks to its overall appeal. I love the damn thing, just wish it wasn’t as quirky as it can be at times.

Well, I’ve never owned another car that I’ve had in my possession for 2/3 of the time due to its being at the dealer to correct various issues under warranty. My ownership experience thus far has not left me confident on how well the Lucids will age.

Bobby, I believe the Lucid tires carry an HL loading rating. This is slightly higher than XL at a given tire pressure. I think your FAQ still quotes XL.

Misspoke, motors need AC power to run. The battery only delivers DC current. So that’s the purpose of the inverter. Question is can it also be used to provide AC current out of the battery to another source (your home) or is it just for the motor.

yes, but the electric motors need DC power to run. So that AC current provided by the Lucid connector or whatever other wall charger one is using needs to be converted to DC current, which the Wunderbox handles. So, we know for sure that AC to DC inversion is handled by the car. To get AC...

Do we know this for sure? Technically speaking, every EV must have an AC to DC inverter if you’re ever going to charge from a wall outlet, but can they do the reverse as well without an external DC to AC inverter? Eric Bach, feel free to weigh in, lol.

Now you know why it takes a minute to wake up the car from the app…

I had this issue. Embarrassing sound when you’re in public as it can sound a bit like gunfire. The handle and lock mechanism needed to be replaced. This wasn’t a software fix.

First, congrats on getting the car back. Second, this situation completely sucks twofold and I’m sorry you have to deal with it without your insurance company’s backing. Not only is Hollis a professional insurance fraud institution but your insurance decided to screw you instead as punishment...

Still selling my OEM 19" wheels/winter tires. The wheels are in great condition (no curbrash) and tires have about 4K miles. I'll be traveling across the country in late Aug/early Sept. Currently in RI. I'll be stopping in these cities/towns with the wheels/tires if still available then...

These are still available in RI. I'll be driving across the country in late Aug/Sept and if I still have the wheels/tires then I'll be at the following cities (for local pickup if the stars align): Hornell NY Columbus, OH St. Louis, MO Tulsa, OK Amarillo, TX Albuquerque, NM Sedona, AZ finally...

Battery preconditioning doesn’t just mean warming up the battery. The reverse is true for extremely hot weather where the battery pack needs to be cooled for optimal charging. There is indeed a sweet spot (it’s called San Diego weather 😎)...

Yes. I just meant idle fees should be income based.
