It’s been just over one year since I had my Lucid AT. The car drives better than my 2012 Tesla Model S which I still own. However, the Lucid software continues to suck! The Apple carplay has vanished from the screen. The native navigation software is a terrible. The parking function is...

Moral of the story is that it’s best to charge at home unless you cannot because you live in an apartment or condo building. I have a 40 amp 220 v charger that charges both my Lucid AT and my 11 year old Tesla Model S. Super chargers will only shorten the life and performance of your batteries...

Took delivery of a Lucid AT about a week ago. Car drives a lot better than my Tesla Model S 85. Cabin noise is almost non existent and the regenerative braking is even better than my Tesla. Interior is beautifully finished. Cup holders should have been set back more. 19” wheels give a smooth...

I had a i7 custom ordered a year ago which arrived last month. It looked gorgeous from the outside in the Oxide Grey metallic paint. However, after test driving it and going back to test drive the Lucid Air Touring again, I ended up leasing the Lucid AT. It’s better powered and it’s a driver’s...

Just took delivery of Air Touring yesterday. Sapphire with Tahoe interior. Car runs beautifully.It’s like driving a luxury Tesla Model S, but with much upgraded features. So easy to learn after driving the S for ten years. The tech is so similar but improved.

Lucid has an excellent Payments widget on their website: 1. Select the car Model and optional features you want that are available. 3. Click on Payment Calculator and it will take you to the Financing and leasing page where you can select one of the 3 ways of paying: cash, loan or lease. a. If...

While Lucid announces a new Sapphire model, it struggles to complete the GT orders and has yet to begin production of the Touring model. My order from 2021 remains just that. Meanwhile they are running out of cash and are trying to raise additional capital. It looks like the Saudis are not going...

I had a reservation for the EQS 580 . Yes I drove it and canceled my reservation and got my deposit back. Car drives ok but both exterior and interior have none of the S500 hallmarks of Mercedes design. The interior of the EQS looks cheap and gaudy with none of the Teutonic restraint as seen in...

We might be lucky if we see any deliveries of the Touring before the end of third quarter 2023. Just console yourself for getting the original prices because price have increased effective July 2022 and will keep increasing every year.

Nobody has bothered to ask why you made the switch to an Ioniq5. I would really appreciate if you would be kind enough to share the reasons for such a drastic switch from Lucid to a compact from a sub brand of Hyundai.Thanks

All the owner experience indicates that coating technology has vastly improve. This is great new! However, I still like the metal roof of my 2013 Tesla S 85, the free lifetime charging and the free internet service. I‘m planning to keep the Tesla even though I’ve ordered the Air which will...

Here is a Bloomberg article on a recent Lucid Air Dream trip. We can all draw our own conclusions but clearly there are some software issues and the Electrify America cost of charging that was supposed to be free. Read in Bloomberg: https://apple.news/AaoVIk6egQDujkbKHK5Y3Tw

True self driving and automation will only happen after the entire traffic sign, lights and related hardware infrastructure in the country is upgraded to smart infrastructure with chips in them. Cars will then be able to truly communicate with the infrastructure and pretty much self drive if...

What you don’t know is a not a problem. Try driving a Tesla model S and you will see how the software makes the car run so beautifully.

With an EV, software is what controls the hardware! So, how can anyone pretend that the software glitches don’t matter in your daily driving experience? Lucid appears to be trying to fix the software glitches BUT they can’t seem to catch up! Part of the reason is that they have outsourced the...

There will come a time when you realize that software is what’s going to help you drive longer into your senior years. Right now, I see that most of you are in love with the hardware which BTW is better than Tesla.

19s will always drive smoother especially if there are potholes like in LA.

When you buy an EV, software is incredibly important because hopefully it’s going to help us (1) drive more safely, (2) make driving less challenging as we age with gradually diminishing cognition, (3) parking and navigation assistance, (4) location and fetch capabilities and (5) reduced...

Does anyone know if Lucid is going to have Goggle navigation software that is in the Tesla Model S as an alternative option to what they have now? I drove a GT at the Torrance showroom recently and the navigation system is awful.

At this time of the year the sun is much lower in the sky. Check it out in the summer when the sun is high in the sky.
