I feel like modern car design is overly influenced by movies where someone is scrambling to take shelter in their vehicle and lock it before the attacker can get to the door handle. Or where there's some creepy person somehow hiding behind the drivers seat, waiting to ambush you when you get...

Experiments to fool the camera with murals are interesting. There's also plenty of history of human drivers being fooled. I seem to recall a trompe l'oeil painting of a tunnel on the side of a building, which was quickly repainted after cars started ramming into the wall. Personally, I'm...

I've just returned from a 3 week trip to Japan. All the very practical small vehicles with minivan-style sliding doors just served to reinforce my belief that Americans' dislike of minivans is foolish. I'd probably be a failure if anyone put me in charge of marketing a vehicle, so my opinion...

I agree 100%. For me, the practicality of a minivan, the performance of a sports car, some trappings of luxury, and a package that most people will look right past? Sign me up.

I have no idea if it would fit, but I agree that having a vehicle that can move a sheet of plywood or drywall is extremely convenient. These days I have a pickup truck that I use for such things, but there was a time when I took advantage of a Toyota Sienna being big enough to fit that. It's...

Yup, that's exactly why I suggested it. My weird sense of humor.

I think it's pretty clear that there's no universal agreement on what is required for a vehicle to be labeled as an "SUV". While some would like only the most capable of rock crawlers to be called an SUV, it's just as clear that there are many many SUVs sold each year that could never manage...

I was just surprised to discover that there seems to be no curb weight specs on the official Lucid Gravity page yet. I guess I just want them to publish the normal specs that cars typically come with, including both curb weight, gross vehicle weight, and cargo weight capacity.

I also don't really think that Lucid's investors are going to let it go under in the next few years. Partly because Lucid arguably has the best engineering around for EVs. If I thought otherwise, that probably would scare me away from the purchase. I'm just contemplating what the downside...

I see that in another comment Tâm indicated that the phone would still work to unlock the car, contrary to what you stated occurred in that outage. Are the two comments in conflict, or is there some limited phone key functionality that just needs bluetooth to operate, and not a central service?

Hi all! I've completed a test drive of a Lucid Air, and I'm now trying to finalize my decision to purchase (or not). I have to admit that the steady drum beat of doom-and-gloom press about Lucid's corporate health is weighing on me a little bit. I'm curious if anyone knows how much the cars...
