    Ordering and Delivery: Lucid Air Grand Touring

    My favorite weekend day trip when I lived in Chicago is up and down LSD and following the Lake Michigan Circle Tour signs up to Sheridan and beyond ;) If you take your GT through downtown, Im sure everyone will gawk at ya. Cant wait to take my GT through the Washington mountains.

    Ordering and Delivery: Lucid Air Grand Touring

    Received my pencils today 😄 Based on other posts and their timeframe between pencils and delivery, it seems like reading tea leaves.

    Ordering and Delivery: Lucid Air Grand Touring

    There’s no definitive timeline, the best info we have is what others post here. 2-4 weeks seems to be the avg. Leaning toward 2 weeks lately, some even a few days.

    Lucid EV Noise Maker?

    Does the Air have a noise maker? I thought it was regulation required but I can’t find any audio of it. Can someone post the sound? :)

    Lease versus finance versus cash

    It’s not built into the calculator but it’s effectively a down payment

    Lease versus finance versus cash

    Lucid will continue to apply it as a cap cost reduction for 2022 deliveries.

    Internet - Wifi - Spotify / Tidal / Alexa

    Easy, just create a Apple Shortcut for if "Leave home" then "enable hotspot" and car will auto connect to known Wi-fi ;) May need to use IFTTT on Android.

    Lease versus finance versus cash

    The RV cant be changed by either party after signing and it's the price you have the right to purchase it at the end of the term. You can also prepay all outstanding lease payments + residual to purchase the car at any time. Dealers typically don't negotiate the RV and I doubt Lucid would. But...

    Lease versus finance versus cash

    Right. People typically want a high residual value so that the delta between MSRP and RV is smaller, therefore smaller lease payments. A low RV is good if you intend on buying at the end of the term, but you might as well finance if that's the goal. But at least this way you retain the option...

    Lease versus finance versus cash

    That's the "residual value". There is no premium, the only catch is you don't own the vehicle and either turn it in or purchase it for that residual value. A lease payment is the MSRP minus the Residual Value at the end of the lease term, divided by the # of months leased, plus interest. RV is...

    Lease versus finance versus cash

    Im leaning toward lease as well, but the residual values are not looking great.. causing a heavy lease payment. I had another thread with what I calculated as an RV Lucid Financing Calculator - WTH are these Leasing quotes?

    Lease versus finance versus cash

    The only concern with prepaying a lease is that if the car is ever a total loss, you likely would not get any refund. Instead, you could put the money in a 2% or 3% liquid bank account and negate that much interest.

    What does the 12v battery do?

    The 12v battery is there to provide the proper voltage for the onboard/interior electronics. When all goes right, the high-voltage battery maintains the 12v battery on most EV's (including Lucid)

    Yeah.. leave them out in the sun or run them in the shower under hot water

    Ordering and Delivery: Lucid Air Grand Touring

    IMO it was totally reasonable to be worried about Silver deliveries. Silver VINs and deliveries started to seem hopeless for 2022. Stellar White is much nicer on the Lucid anyway ;)

    Cancelling Order

    I feel the 12v issues are a concern, but overly represented on this forum. I too considered cancelling for this reason, but after giving it serious though, I realize that the issue hasn't been reported in the media and the media would LOVE to run a story "Lucid vehicles die at 70mph on active...
