    Dead fob as a card

    About last month post: " The fob has a built in backup that works the same as the card. Hold it against the A pillar to unlock, even if the fob battery is dead. The card is just useful because it fits in your wallet in case you forget your fob/phone." Dead-fob-as-a-card does not work in Lucid...

    Regenerative braking

    I haven't done coasting a long time until you just asked. In Lucid, you can turn your Regen on or off very easily in 2 places: On the main menu by changing your mode of driving (Smooth, Swift...) And the "Vehicle" menu. When I turn it off in Lucid, it is as if I was driving my old Ford...

    Interior temperature control

    The display screen should be user configurable. Some drivers want more information (that is me) and some want as fewer information as possible. Drivers' needs are different. Different needs don't mean a driver is wrong. I remember when I first complained that I needed more bass in Lucid...

    Seeking advice on rear glass warranty claim

    Glass warranty in the auto industry is the hardest one to get them to pay. Usually, their reason is it's not a manufacturing defect. In your case, it's refreshing that they accept the cause as a manufacturing defect. Since it was an internal policy contradicting the warranty, they should have...

    Nervous new Lucid AT owner

    A forum is just like a hospital. You might wonder why there are so many sick patients. I owned a Lucid since 2022 and the only issue is the rubber cosmetic trim that was fixed with super glue. Software bugs are easy to solve: reboot or wait for the next revision. So far, none that affect...

    Warranty expiration imminent

    Thanks so much for the info. My guess is it doesn't have to crank a gasoline engine. It only needs to power electronics so a small size would do. However, I do not like the industry trend of over-relying on powered technology in order to access a dead battery instead of just a backup...

    Warranty expiration imminent

    The main battery and drive units are the most expensive parts, but they are covered for 100,000 miles, so you are covered for another 50,000 miles. Cars do break down even though it's an EV. Some other expensive parts: HVAC (heater one cost and air conditioning another cost) Screen Displays...

    Warranty expiration imminent

    For almost 40 years, I was able to change car batteries by myself with ICE and the Prius. Not anymore, after I got an EV in 2012. There are 2 batteries for Lucid, but I only see one, where's the second one? The only thing that I can still do is rotate the tires myself :)

    Let's play armchair CMO

    At the start, the price was above $100,000. That indicates it's a luxury price and not an economy price. Now, it gets down below $80,000. Also, there's a rumor that the car will cost about $50,000 in 2026, so the brand is also open to the middle class. For EV, I value range the most. Range...

    What’s it like coming from Tesla

    Tesla Model X: 199.1 x 81.6 x 66.1 in Lucid Gravity: 198.2 x 78.7 x 65.2 in It's smaller than the Tesla Model X. But Gravity is spacious inside, according to YouTube. This long-leg 6'10" tall guy fits in the third row: My First Look At The Lucid Gravity! The Electric SUV w/ Impressive...

    What’s it like coming from Tesla

    What annoying about Tesla ADAS is it's distracting and if you go above 87 MPH it will alarm and might suspense you for a week if you've done it so many times. I can go above Lucid ADAS capability of 90 MPH and there's no alarm, there's no suspension, it just becomes manual instead of ADAS and...

    RESOLVED Door won't open

    According to its manual, some Tesla Model Y have emergency door releases, and some don't. Even when there's one, it takes a few steps. Make sure don't store anything in the rear side door pockets: That's the problem of relying too much on powered technology and throwing away basic manual...

    Forum traffic seems slow

    Less controversies less posts. For example, Lucid occupants can open all the front and rear doors without the need of power, while Tesla can do that easily for front doors only. It's possible to do that for Tesla rear doors but it's kind of complicated and not practical in a car crash.

    Lucid store can not process an exchange - even prior to shipping

    That's the problem of letting the machine take over humans' decisions, as warned by the 1968 movie "2001: the Space Odyssey." Boeing 737 Max crashes due to allowing the MCAS to decide to nose down while making it next to impossible for human pilots to nose up manually. But it's the trend in...

    Lucid store can not process an exchange - even prior to shipping

    In the old days, workers had lots of options for dealing with order errors, like in this case. Today, I think it's more about how the computer program dictates workers' compliance. It's up to the leadership to make it right.
