    2023 Software Updates

    My 2.1.20 loaded with no problem. I have not noticed a difference in the images but to me, the cameras and sensors were perfectly effective before the recent OTA. I continue to be impressed by the efforts to improve all functions of the car. It is a marvel of automotive engineering if not quite...

    19 vs. 20 vs. 21 tires for Touring

    My Pirelli Sotto Zeros were a bit softer than the Pirelli stock AS tires and worked very well in ice and snow last winter in NH. Maybe they will be good for a few winter seasons, but if they are anything like the Alpins or Blizzaks once they wear they are ineffective in slippery conditions. My...

    AGT on latest episode of Billions

    Good to see a Cosmos Silver AGT with 21s on a scene in the latest episode of Billions yesterday. It looked distinctive and elegant in the two short scenes in which it appeared.

    19 vs. 20 vs. 21 tires for Touring

    I got 19s because 20s were not available when my car was ready for delivery in early Oct. last year. I ran winter compound tires and will use them from Nov to April. I have had two AGT loaners, one with 21s and one with 20s. I found the ride much smoother and the handling much better with the...

    One-Year Review

    Thank you for your review. After 12,700 miles my experience is similar, although my efficiency is a bit less probably due to driving in freezing weather for 5 months and then 90 degrees plus for a few months. Aside from the attributes that JJ_5 recounts, the pure joy of driving the AGT with its...

    Lucid Air GT 0-60 dragy numbers

    Good to know and not surprising. The car is incredible compared to anything car on the road in multiple dimensions, not just acceleration, in which it excels.

    Electrify America gets a new VP of technology

    Sounds promising. Is there any available measure of EA's network performance? Surely EA has metrics, but are there any publicly available statistics? The new person definitely has a lot of work ahead of him.

    How Much Range Are You Actually Getting?

    At 12,000 miles and in the warmer weather my efficiency has recently been at or above 3.5 mi./kWh and on some 100 miles trips over 4. Most trips are short, like no more than 20 miles. No change in driving style, which is rarely above 75 mph and on 19" AS tires and no Aero blades. I got 3.6 for...

    My Road Trip Experiences

    Good perspective. Although at the Chicopee MA EA in the winter, I never got more than about 150 regardless of SOC and always with preconditioning before charging. That was also true cross country at 150 and 350 EA stations whether empty or with other cars charging.

    6.4 mi/KWh

    I had 4.5 mi/kWh over about 100 miles on a mostly downhill drive from Frisco, CO up to Leadville and back to 30 miles north of Denver. 6.5 is amazing. In the past week or so my efficiency on my usual drives with little elevation change has averaged 4 or so which compares to only about 3 for the...

    Significant price drop!

    The market is speaking. If we had the foresight then we may have waited a year to save the $11,000 and probably a lot of beta problems that we have all endured. I have enjoyed my AGT for ten months and trust that the gremlins that still arise and annoy will hopefully be corrected. Not sure how...

    Turtle Mode ruins the road trip

    Let's hope that surveillance/active diagnostics will be implemented to identify faulty or possibly faulty equipment or system problems in our cars before they strand anyone.

    6.2 miles/kwh! But...

    Recently I charged in Frisco, CO, and then drove up to Leadville then back to Broomfield and got 4.5 mi/kWh with full HVAC, so at least 80 miles. Unfortunately, I could not gauge the elevation change because our nav system does not have elevation values, like most GPSs I have had in prior cars...

    Turtle Mode, Warranty and What to Expect

    My new 2003 CL55 stranded me on a weekend drive not long after delivery but the dealer flat bedded it same afternoon and replaced a control module with no further problems.

    Turtle Mode, Warranty and What to Expect

    As Lucid trains and deploys more technicians the service downtime intervals should shorten considerably, like from days to hours for mobile or in service center repairs. Also, the response time and quality of customer care have improved in my recent experience. For me, the attributes of my AGT...

    RESOLVED Is motor whine normal?

    I am confident that the motor whine is intentionally engineered. I think it sounds great on initial acceleration but I do not notice it at speed. The motor whine is authentic and a signature of the AGT experience. Unlike my 2016 Panamera V8 NA GTS with a sports exhaust, which conveyed the power...

    Thank you Englewood Satellite Service Center

    This is to thank Josh the SM in Seattle and Bill, the exceptional technician now in Englewood for correcting a number of fit and finish problems as well as completing the first regular service. Thank you also to Zak for his attention to providing service. My car arrived from the factory in early...

    Lucid Brand ambassador

    Most people who admire the car have no idea what it is. I enthusiastically laud its attributes when given the opportunity but brand awareness and identification need some work. Advertising and PR probably won't make much difference until Lucid introduces lower-priced models. In the meantime, the...

    Greetings from a new Denver and former Audi owner - thanks @outofspecdave

    Congratulations. The AGT begs to be driven on canyon roads. It would be good to have a meetup in the area to learn about some great mountain roads. We may have the only Cosmos Silver AGTs in the Denver area.
