    Longest Point-to-Point Road Trip?

    If your goal is just to cover miles, stick to the major interstate highways and you should do fine. We purposely left the interstate a number of times, for scenery or a particular attraction (House on the Rock in Wisconson was amazing!). Some of those side trips challenged our ability to find...

    Longest Point-to-Point Road Trip?

    6,500 miles, Boston to Yellowstone and back, over 3 weeks. We averaged 300 mi/day, with both sightseeing and charging stops. No problems with the car. Only one failed EA charging attempt out of about 25 charges. We used A Better Route Planner, set to "more frequent shorter charging stops"...

    Lucid Launch Event

    I suspect the vague numbers come from hand-built prototypes, and they don't want to put down a hard number until a production car has been formally tested.

    Coefficient of Drag for Touring & Pure..... What does this mean?

    The only exterior difference I'm aware of is the metal roof. Maybe that lowers the coefficent of drag? It's one piece rather than having a glass seam and then a metal bow tie like the glass has.

    Range question

    The problem was crossing South Dakota and Wyoming.

    Range question

    On our recent trip from Boston to Yellowstone and back, we saw few chargers west of Chicago. A Better Route Planner said it wasn't possible to get where we were going, and we only did it by overnighting at one point at a motel near a slow charger that we left the car on overnight. Without as...

    Off-Topic Volvo EX90 EV - SUV w/Lidar - teaser video

    Many companies want to keep confidential their reservation or production numbers, so do not assign numbers sequentially. Just like the last 5 digits of a Lucid VIN do not mean anything, it's likely that the Volvo reservation numbers don't either. Back in my days of doing web programming for...

    RESOLVED Does your front footwell woofer work properly? TSB-B1122-001

    To offer another perspective: I don't want to stream from Tidal. The Tidal experience sucks, with a poor U/I and plays the same tracks over and over. I own an extensive library of music which I've digitized at lossless quality that sounds great on other sound systems. If I can't play this in...

    Range estimation information with 2.0.24

    If you're saying 42psi, that means you have 21 inch wheels, and the stated range is 446, not 516. The longer range only applies to 19 inch wheels. So instead of getting 79% of the EPA range, you're getting closer to 90%.

    Is Lucid Playing Games with me?

    No, the last 5 digits of the VIN are not assigned in sequence.

    What would you like to see from the Lucid mobile app?

    Yes, from within the Lucid app you can send an address to the vehicle. What we are asking for is the ability for any app on the phone to be able to do that. The Lucid app needs to tell iOS that it is a way to share locations. Then from, say Google Maps, you can select a pin, click Share, then...

    Trunk and Frunk symbols difficult to distinguish

    I'm glad to hear I'm not the only one. Every time I need to open one of those, I just guess which is which. I'm slightly dyslexic, and see that as two identical icons facing different directions, but can't ever remember which one faces which way.

    Vote for your favorite Color and Discuss Why?

    I have always gone for bright colors on my cars. I can't stand grey, black, white, silver--they aren't colors. I would have loved to get a bright blue. Alas, the really dark red was the only real color offered.

    How is creep mode supposed to work?

    When surround cameras are working, I like to leave them out as the nose of the car goes in, to help me make sure I'm lined up correctly. Then I have to fold the mirrors in before they pass through the door. When the mirrors fold in, the surround becomes greatly distorted because some of the...

    How is creep mode supposed to work?

    I haven't tried it with creep mode. I was determined to do it one-pedal driving. The first time I had two friends spotting me, as it is tight side-to-side (I have to fold the mirrors in to fit through the door) as well as front-to-back. Luckily, I had practice getting into the garage before I...

    How is creep mode supposed to work?

    Now that I've had my car for a while and put 7000 miles on it, I have no problem with moving the car slowly while parking and such, even with hold mode and high regen. At first I didn't like it, but it was just a matter of getting used to the one pedal driving in that setting. And I get to do...

    [Resolved] Brake release on hills, slopes, and inclines

    I have seen the same thing while backing out of our driveway. I reported it as well.

    Need honest feedback from current owners

    I'm happy with the car and have had very few problems. I think forums like this tend to amplify negative comments and positive ones are not heard. I'm also someone who chose the car primarily because of range. I'm not a driving enthusiast and no amount of people telling me that it's the best...

    Song Recommendations to get the best out of the Air sound system!

    I'll be there, and want to compare sound. I'm not convinced it's working right in my car.

    Anyone has service in NE yet?

    I drove by their temporary Ashland facility last week while running an errand. I got excited to see my second in-the-wild Lucid sighting, until I realized there was also a Lucid mobile service van next to it and this must be their facility. Doesn't count as wild there...
