    Considering Used 2022 Lucid Air GT... Qs about performance

    Definitely not going to track the car. Just want solid and consistent throttle response that feels like more than 500 hp. Good point about Taycan; that said, 2025 Taycan is (apart from Turbo GT) more of a facelift with ~10% power and ~10% range increase. And to my and my wife's eyes the...

    Considering Used 2022 Lucid Air GT... Qs about performance

    And I keep saying I'm not really interested in DE-P or GT-P and the comparison was more with the Taycan GTS (which, by all numbers is SLOWER than Air GT) than with Plaid S. I know the fact that I own and drove the Plaid S to test drive both Taycan and Air GT had some impact but Taycan GTS felt...

    Considering Used 2022 Lucid Air GT... Qs about performance

    I am not asking it to be something it isn't, though I admit I am somewhat spoiled by the Plaid S in the power department. In reading/watching car reviews of ALL new EVs (I've owned 8) it is mostly only the numbers you can count on as everything else is subjective though of course enough...

    Considering Used 2022 Lucid Air GT... Qs about performance

    I would say Air GT (according to the specs/reviews I've seen) is, acceleration wise (not handling!) very comparable to previous 2 generations (P100D / Raven) Performance Model S... the old performance/ludicrous S is a good bit quicker to 60 but the Air GT is a good bit quicker above 60 mph so...

    Considering Used 2022 Lucid Air GT... Qs about performance

    (1) Thanks for the input... I will try preconditioning a bit next time... My Plaid S and the Taycan GTS I drove the same morning were as cold as the Lucid AGT, so either Lucid is just much more conservative in allowing power to flow at cold temperatures or something else (more conservative...

    Considering Used 2022 Lucid Air GT... Qs about performance

    Thanks this was a used lucid at a Cadillac dealership so should not have had any limiter. I test drove a touring last year at lucid and understood they limited it to something like 90% .

    Considering Used 2022 Lucid Air GT... Qs about performance

    I’m well aware of the perils of driving on summer performance tires during the winter, but not exactly an option to put different tires on a used car for a test drive. I’ve driven my plaid s on summer and all season tires and didn’t notice as much of a drop in power even on the rare cold days I...

    Considering Used 2022 Lucid Air GT... Qs about performance

    Thanks ... That helps... So the reviews I've seen of drifting the Air GT (non Perf) are in theory possible with any GT, I just need to turn the traction down and maybe find another few things to tweak... Again, if Tesla gave me a 4th driving option apart from "Chill, Sport, Plaid" that let me...

    Considering Used 2022 Lucid Air GT... Qs about performance

    I've had to the (temporarily) king of power a couple of years and willing to walk back on the brutal... Just feel like I was not getting the power I expected from reviews on Air GT.. If the tires/temperature (for grip or battery power) or SOC might explain that would be helpful to know... Does...

    Considering Used 2022 Lucid Air GT... Qs about performance

    Hi Lucid owners, Plaid S owner has Qs about Lucid Air GT. I recently test drove a 2022 Lucid Air GT (not performance but with Pirelli P Zero summer only tires) with 12k miles on it and really liked the interior (I love contrasting interiors, though not 100% fan of front seats different color...
