I sadly agree that Lucid needs to put its name out there. I've driven my Air Touring for almost two years, yet no one who inquires about the car has heard of Lucid. When I'm bragging about it to friends and strangers they look perplexed. Lucid? Never heard of it. At least Jonathan Gitlin...

I had this physical upgrade performed on my Air with SS Pro and it definitely improves the sound quality. I'm awaiting the improvements offered by the current software update. Another question about the current update (which my car is receiving as I write). I notice many desirable improvements...

I hope this is not considered political. If Elon Musk is a significant player in the coming administration, will that put a damper on non-Tesla chargers and charging companies? Will the funds allocated to the various other companies such as EA and EVgo dry up?

I remain ambivalent about my Air Touring. It's much more car than I wanted or need. It barely fits in the garage next to our Honda Accord. Operating the infotainment system while driving is difficult. There are just too many choices and levels within those choices. It took me five minutes to...

I've been driving an Air Touring in Illinois for the past 19 months We have the 19-inch wheels with the factory Pirellis inflated to 50 psi at the ambient temperature. Winter range is variable, but dramatically reduced from summer range. Every degree below 55 F. makes a difference. Also wind...

2.4.4 loaded this morning without a hitch. It required 90 minutes. I took my Air Touring out for a 30 mile test drive. I love the new Homelink access after backing out of the garage. So far everything continues working well.

I vaguely remember this being discussed a long time ago. In the recent update thread, many users referred to positioning the car for the best AT&T cellular signal. We've acknowledged that AT&T is built into the car for updates and entertainment. At some point, Lucid will begin charging for this...

I understand the humor and love it. I've only had one significant issue (audio completely muting irregularly) in 18-months, but it's not a big deal. The car has been trouble-free, more so than any other car I've owned. Well, it does have one flaw. It keeps wanting to drive back to Casa Grande.

I find Lucid's service exemplary. The crew at Goose Island in Chicago is really helpful and on the ball. They've twice sent out the mobile service van, as I live 150 miles away. Once they took the car in and loaned my a GT. I'm having the opposite experience with my Lucid. I really wanted to...

I realize that Tidal is a native app in the Lucid while Qobuz is not. Of course, with CarPlay (and if AA ever debuts) it would be almost as good as a native app. All of my friends in central Illinois are big Qobuz fans and say they prefer it to Tidal. (Yes, I know Tidal offers Dolby Atmos, but...

It was a beautiful day with ambient temperature 70 degrees with light wind. Travelling the 150 miles from Champaign to Chicago at 73 mph drained the battery 50 percent from a 100 percent charge. We had about 3.8 efficiency. So I headed for EA's Lincolnwood charger, hidden at the edge of the...

Hey, why doesn't Lucid fly you to Chicago to host one of these?

I've been a member of this forum for two years. I really enjoy the commentary and conversation. What I've observed over the past two years is that, possibly more than any other discussion of EVs, the Lucid Air resembles the old Indian tale of the blind men and the elephant. Each person walks up...

There are just so many variables that it's next to impossible to peg an "average" efficiency number. I drive an Air Touring, about 50 percent on the Interstate and 50 percent around town. My average efficiency after 10K miles is 3.6. I generally set the heat to 67 degrees in the winter and use...

I'd gladly sacrifice the frunk for an extra 50 real miles (preferably 100 miles) of range.

Even though this is initially about Volvo, I thought you might find this new battery charging technology worthy of a read. It easily could be employed by Lucid down the line. https://arstechnica.com/cars/2024/03/volvos-new-battery-software-could-cut-ev-charge-times-by-30/

We printed signs to put on the side windows and windshield saying: "Air conditioning is running - dog is safe."

Rain-X is tricky. You must apply it to a totally clean windshield. Let it dry several minutes then buff it. Microfiber cloths work best. Now here's the tricky part, you have to buff it repeatedly after several hours. You can't just apply, buff and drive away. I've been using (and experimenting...
