    Highway speed effects on range

    This is purely anecdotal but from my experience repeated rapid high speed acceleration kills range. Just like an ICE powered car. Last extended run with brisk blasts of acceleration I went from 90% SOC to 20% in roughly 150 miles. On the return trip taking it easy and cruising with traffic @...

    Why speed limit difference Air Grand Touring vs Air Touring?

    With the all seasons there’s some wander and vagueness at high speeds. Regen in Sprint is pretty aggressive. I think the brakes are very good at scrubbing off speed. Nothing like my cars with CCB but confidence inspiring nonetheless. Love that they’re hydraulic and not brake by wire. The only...

    Chicago to Traverse City MI-where to stay?

    Heading to Traverse City MI for a long weekend with another couple. 1st road trip in the Air. It’s only 350 miles with several 300 kw chargers listed along the way. Plan to hit the wineries, I’m skeptical that we’ll find anything red that I’ll like. But after the 3rd glass I don’t think it’ll...

    Why speed limit difference Air Grand Touring vs Air Touring?

    Curious why there’s a speed limit difference between the Air Touring @ 140mph VS Air Grand Touring @ 168 mph. Technology related- More Efficiency, More Sustainable Performance: Enhancements to Lucid’s proprietary motor design, battery cell chemistry, and thermal characteristics reduce energy...

    Hi all Chitown based. Would be up for a GTG. Nothing better than hanging with other enthusiasts discussing a car you love.

    Bank of America Credit Requirement

    You may be over thinking this. And I feel your pain as I did the same thing. I don’t take rejection of any kind well! Based on the info you’ve given you both should qualify as the leases are low risks for the banks due to low payment vs value of the of the car. The only thing that could be at...

    Bank of America Credit Requirement

    This is yet another aspect Lucid needs to work out in their sales prevention department. There’s a ton of banks that are hungry for business. I’m only speculating but this could be an early indication of banks tightening things up on anticipation of near term financial downturn.

    Bank of America Credit Requirement

    Credit is complex business, I believe intentionally so. You have essentially the following factors: different scoring models, credit bureaus, and the type of credit score. While they’re all part of the mix it’s the last one-type of credit score-that will ultimately matter. If you have expanded...

    Tesla Model Y to Lucia Air Pure

    DreamDrive Premium and Surreal Sound Pro are both must haves for me. If I could do it over again I’d have gone with 20” wheels and summer only tires and purchased aftermarket winter tires & wheels. Having driven my partner’s car with 20’s back to back with mine with 19’s MHO the 19” have a...

    Comed denied rebate-Lucid Charger not Energy Star certified

    IDK there’s 180 listed here. Most if not all of the alternatives I’m looking at are Energy Star certified. Certification for EV chargers is strictly based on power consumption when NOT charging...

    Comed denied rebate-Lucid Charger not Energy Star certified

    Yah appears to not be Energy Star. Certification for Level 2 chargers focuses on low energy consumption at an idle state. And I’m sure a bunch of $ for the sticker.

    Comed denied rebate-Lucid Charger not Energy Star certified

    Thanks for the response. I did read that someone here in Illinois was able to get just the installation cost covered using the Lucid charger. I’m going to call tomorrow and see what possible.

    Comed denied rebate-Lucid Charger not Energy Star certified

    So after waiting months I finally get a rejection email from Comed that due to the charger not being ENERGY STAR certified and I assume NRTL certified no rebate. Looking through the documents this is in fact a qualification. I don't see any mention of Energy Star certification for the Lucid Home...

    Weak AC/Heater blower

    This having rear ac turned on makes a massive difference in cooling for me. For example-95 degree day with high humidity front only set to 67 keeps car livable. Same day with rear ac on 67 is uncomfortably cold. 72 all around is perfect. Metal roof with no window tint for reference.

    Ground Clearance - Losing Out on Dream Car - Help!

    Given that the drive is gravel you could have the transition smoothed out. The Air is a special car and IMHO would be worth the effort.

    Software update 2.3.0

    Same here, had multiple cameras not available messages for the 1st time this week and distracted driver is more sensitive. Re: cameras no rain, car is spotless and don’t see how this could be by coincidence. Something had to have changed. With my other cars with OTA update capabilities there’s...

    Software update 2.3.0

    CarPlay at this point is so ubiquitous I can’t imagine the motivation to not include. I understand that there’s an additional cost for the manufacturer for development of integration and ongoing maintenance. I’ve been told by some industry insiders that Apple is very helpful and will work...
