    Lucid tesla adapter

    That will let it get about 250kw (stated charging rate on Polestar's web site) with its 400V battery architecture.

    Article and podcast suggesting support for Android Auto and Apple Carplay diminishing

    I ran across this on my news feed: and the related https://www.motortrend.com/features/apple-carplay-android-auto-automakers-ditching-them-for-data. Motor Trend makes the point that CarPlay Ultra and Android Automotive OS are both--to some extent--attempts to salvage their positions as the...

    [RESOLVED BY OTA 2.7.0] Car won’t go into DRIVE !

    I understand your frustration. I don't work for Lucid, nor am I an Air owner (waiting for my Gravity). But I've been a Software developer for 45+ years. I can tell you with absolute certainty that more than 99% of Lucid's employees have nothing to contribute to solving a software issue like...

    Does anybody have a Gravity with a trailer hitch?

    Model X pulled a Qantas 787 Dreamliner... F-150 Lightning pulled a 1,000,000 lb train... But the Gravity looked really good pulling that jet 😊

    Lucid tesla adapter

    In my experience, the High Demand site will automatically adjust a Tesla's charge limit to 80%. But the accompanying message tells you that it's OK to set it higher if needed for your trip. I don't know if it will do the same automatic reduction on non-Tesla vehicles, but the ability to charge...

    Proforma Invoice

    I also got one of those 1 month after placing my order (March 23 order, April 23 Pro Forma). When I asked, my SA said sending it was a mistake.

    Battery Losing Range at Low SOC

    I know that with Teslas the BMS will do cell balancing at the top of the charging process... between about 92% and 100% IIRC. So it's often suggested to charge to 100% occasionally and immediately drive it so it doesn't sit at the high SOC. Subsequently running it down to single-digit SOC helps...

    CarPlay Ultra, the next generation of CarPlay, begins rolling out today

    We will disagree on that one. Some people like Apple products. Some don't. I do admit to some bias against them after they sued developers who were porting their own applications to the PC, claiming that Apple owned their user interfaces because they had used menus! And this from a company...

    Gravity Dream Edition in Miami

    Just as a matter of perspective, Lucid is doing better on the Gravity ramp than Tesla did on the X. Both were the 2nd production vehicles for their company (Roadster was only their powertrain in a Lotus body).

    Lucid Executive Departures

    I found and read the article the OP is referencing. It's pretty much click-bait in my opinion. There is only one of the listed execs who left under the new CEO...the Head of Investor Relations. There doesn't seem to me a huge churn of execs, and it's certainly not the new CEO cleaning house...

    Lucid Mobile App – UX Observations & Curious if Others Feel the Same

    Yes. It has been a few years since I was directly developing Android apps. The permissions above need to be granted, and the app needs to be allowed to run in the background. This permission moves around based on phone manufacturers and OS version. On my Pixel Fold, it's under Settings, Apps...

    Lucid Mobile App – UX Observations & Curious if Others Feel the Same

    I don't have experience with Lucid yet, but I have experience in mobile app development and I am aware that the mobile Bluetooth stack is...finicky. The early experience with Tesla Model 3--their first phone-as-key car--was temperamental especially on Android. This is most likely your phone's...

    QUESTION [Poll] Will you keep your order without HUD?

    Question is moot as I had already opted for Dream Edition prior to the announcement, but I am very much looking forward to it.

    Gravity [Dream Edition] Reservations Tracker

    Hello! I'm new to the forum, though I've been reading a while. I ordered Gravity GT on March 23rd and then upgraded to DE on April 8th. I put the March date in the tracker--I hope that's correct. I'm switching from a Model X 100D that I've had for 7 years. I've made multiple cross-country...
