    Lucid CEO critiques other EV-SUVs

    That doesn't matter to the topic at hand. I keep repeating myself here, and it's become unproductive, so this will be my last response. I will leave you with this: Lucid sold 6K EVs the previous year. For them to survive, they are going to need a large number of new buyers. To attract those...

    Lucid CEO critiques other EV-SUVs

    Not very good = bad for all intents and purposes. It's not a misquote its a synopsis.

    Lucid CEO critiques other EV-SUVs

    He wasn't lying, but he was making a stupid comment that meant little to nothing. It's the same as R.J. declaring Rivian superior to all competitors because of his off-road prowess. It is technically true, but meaningless and antagonistic. What's suicidal is making inflammatory statements as...

    Lucid CEO critiques other EV-SUVs

    I did, several times. I explained point by point why Peter's comments were inappropriate and unfounded. Reread the thread.

    Lucid CEO critiques other EV-SUVs

    I've said why this is a stupid quote numerous times. None of those reasons have been changed by your post. The bolded comment is inappropriate and unfounded.

    Android phone users: what would it take to make you basically satisfied with the Air's software?

    The best part about this comment, although I 100% agree with you, is all the people on the Rivian forums who constantly whine about not having CarPlay. I've had it in a few cars now, and I think your line about "some janky add-on to compensate for poorly integrated software" is spot on...

    VW investing up to 5 billion in Rivian.. per NY Times

    I read through this article and must have missed the point where this deal is a terrible omen for automakers. Is the idea that since VW admitted its software was crap and it got Rivian's, that somehow signals the end of traditional auto? That doesn't make sense to me any more than switching a...

    Lucid CEO critiques other EV-SUVs

    I'm sure he knows what Gravity does relative to the competition. The central issue is that many of the reasons he would give why gravity is better would not matter to someone else, and that person might value a set of priorities that the R1S executes better. Since "better" is subjective based...

    Lucid CEO critiques other EV-SUVs

    It's important to remember that different electric vehicles serve different purposes. Not everyone is looking for a vehicle that's super low to the ground. Sometimes, other factors like capability can outweigh range. So it is the EPA's fault that Lucid isn't hitting their range numbers, but...

    Lucid CEO critiques other EV-SUVs

    How is it true? The Gravity doesn't even exist yet, there are NO independent reviews of the model it's all speculation. Calling it better than ANYTHING at this point is at best premature.

    Lucid CEO critiques other EV-SUVs

    No I meant the Rubicon trail. It's a famous off roading trail. https://www.rubicontrailfoundation.org/. If you are familiar with the Jeep Rubicon, that's what it's named after and the Rubicon trail is considered a benchmark for off-road capable vehicles. The R1S completed the trail in a stock...

    Lucid CEO critiques other EV-SUVs

    I've had my R1T for almost 2 years now and I know what you mean about it being a different vehicle since buying it. Nav, Music, Handling and performance, off road and now the whole operating system was updated last night with the gen 2 graphics and the promised side view mirror cameras when...

    Lucid CEO critiques other EV-SUVs

    R.J. gets pushed into antagonistic comments by the media all the time, too; he just doesn't take the bait. When the Cybertruck was released, many media personalities tried to get him to say the R1 was superior, but instead, he said something about there being room in the market for everyone and...

    Lucid CEO critiques other EV-SUVs

    I didn't read through all the comments on this thread, but I don't care for comments like the ones made in this article. There is no need to denigrate the competition and claim something that isn't true. The Rivian R1S crossed the Rubicon trail stock. Rivian has an upcoming variant that goes...

    VW investing up to 5 billion in Rivian.. per NY Times

    The software thing for Lucid worries me because of this post. I really like my Rivian software, it just works. My truck does everything it's supposed to do with very little input from me. The software makes sense and things are easy to find. There are also monthly updates and many of them...

    VW investing up to 5 billion in Rivian.. per NY Times

    The R1S is a true 3 row SUV. I'm not sure about the interior dimensions, but it is a pretty large vehicle.

    Wow, how cool is that? All you need is someone to cut you off in traffic to hit the brakes hard and get smacked in the head with your own suitcase.

    VW investing up to 5 billion in Rivian.. per NY Times

    Rivian already has sold 40K+ SUV's that are Gravity's size. They are on their second generation R1S. I get the styling isn't for everyone, but that applies to Gravity too with the people here talking about how it reminds them of a minivan.

    VW investing up to 5 billion in Rivian.. per NY Times

    I've heard this a lot about carplay. In my wife's BMW carplay is constantly giving me errors. I just don't get the same software experience with carplay that I do with the Rivian system. It doesn't work very well IMO.
