    2 Beeps/Chime sounds?

    Anyone know what those two beep or chime sounds are which come on after you've awaken the car and started driving? It's a new sound after 2.1.43, and I always thought it was the indicator that the Camera was operational, however, the camera is already working prior to the sound. The sound...

    The Tesla wipers are literally the keystone example I convey to anyone who complains that the Lucid design has "too many boomer (physical) controls". I truly do not ever want to take my eyes off the road and navigate 3 screens deep, on a 15 inch laptop screen, to turn on wipers.

    Mobile Key no longer recognized / detected - can't lock car with mobile key or by pushing in handle on door

    For me, I carry all three all the time (Fob, Key Card in my wallet, and mobile key). Probably due to the fact I my profession is in technology, and so always have two backup plans :)

    Electrify America is enraging EV owners

    I've literally had to change charging stations because I was pulling 6 kW at Quartzite. Imagine waiting 40 minutes in 100 degree temps, baking in the sun only to have to wait another 20 minutes to change chargers. When I changed I was bouncing between 20-36 kW. I took as little as possible to...

    Electrify America is enraging EV owners

    Unfortunately, not North to Las Vegas on 95. You have to stop at Quartzite and then again in Searchlight. Now if Kingman was reliable, I could stretch to a single stop there and make it in my Touring 20". However, Kingman is notoriously problematic.

    Electrify America is enraging EV owners

    My least favorite EA station (which is saying somethin'), but there aren't other options so you just have to plan for a long wait and a very slow charge (sometimes single digit).

    Electrify America is enraging EV owners

    At every EA, i get out of my car and talk to the other owners who know the wait order. When a car comes later, if they don't do the same, we don't walk over to them, say hello and talk EV for a few minutes and let them know. I've never experienced any issues with line jumping, and it's great to...

    OTA Update 2.1.43 - ROBUST THIS! - Important PSA to Update to 2.1.43 ASAP or RIP

    Same. Not worried about it. They'll handle it. Keep in mind, the just updated the installer, so we should not be surprised if there's a bump in the road.

    OTA Update 2.1.43 - ROBUST THIS! - Important PSA to Update to 2.1.43 ASAP or RIP

    We could begin training a model based on all updates and VINs. Maybe we could build a predictive analytics engine :-)

    How Much Range Are You Actually Getting?

    Meanwhile .... The past two OTA updates that I have received have been tuning regen. There was a significant change in terms of smoothness in 2.1.33, and in 2.1.42 regen seems to be cranked up stronger. Normally, my "Since Last Charge" is 3.7 give or take. So, it's one of two things or...

    EPA efficiency rating confusion

    Ensure High Regen is enabled for brakes. Minimize your Heat or A/C use. Ensure your tires are properly inflated (don't underestimate the impact of this) I drive 90% of the time "city driving" between speeds of 40-60 mph, 10% of the time "highway" 70-80 mph. Accelerate reasonably Tip: Disable...

    OTA version 2.1.33

    Going to jump into the regen discussion here... I received 2.1.33 yesterday afternoon. Upon first drive, there is no question that braking behavior changed on my vehicle (I use High Regen), and more importantly it actually improved the driving experience where no improvement was even...
