    Contactor Recall Megathread

    That makes sense. I wonder if they will identify many more cars that are out of the tolerance specs.

    Contactor Recall Megathread

    I received a letter from Lucid yesterday 11/22/23 notifying me that my car requires replacement of the contactors. I thought Lucid had identified and resolved most of these problems months ago. Have others recently received this recall notice?

    How Much Range Are You Actually Getting?

    It would be interesting to see an efficiency graph of Lucid models showing the mi/kWh in relation to speed. It seems like many EVs are most efficient at 25mph.

    How Much Range Are You Actually Getting?

    Recently I drove from Ukiah CA to Point Arena. The 50 miles of road between the two towns is a series of steep climbs and descents. Because I was concerned about my SOC—the Chargepoint station in Ukiah had malfunctioned—and I wanted to get back to SF without charging, I drove slowly 35-40mph...

    Driving an EV in HOV Lane?

    Utah allows it. And, Salt Lake City has free metered parking for EVs.

    I keep mine in a case under the pilot panel.

    EA Charging

    If the 150 kW stall maxes at 175, how can one get 201 kW from a 150?

    EA Charging

    On Monday I pulled 201 kW at an EA 150kW charger in Auburn CA while 3 other cars were also charging. Later that day in Lovelock NV, I was only able to pull 72 kW at a 350 kW charger with a 25% SOC and with no one else charging. I switched to a 150 kW charger at the same location and pulled 173...

    EA Charging

    Except for one charger in Eureka that kept refusing to authorize (even when using the Lucid app), EA's chargers have been working well for me for the past couple of weeks. I pulled 227kW in Garberville while at 25% and 185kW at 35% at the Lakeshore Plaza in SF.

    6.4 mi/KWh

    I've had some great mileage for the past 3,500 miles. Actually, I think the software glitched the last time I reset Trip B.

    One-Year Review

    It's been year since we picked up our car in Millbrae. I wanted to share our experiences over the past 12 months in case they might be helpful to someone thinking about purchasing a Lucid. The car now has 11,800 miles. We've driven the car between Utah and California three times, from Utah to...

    Pre-conditioning - When?

    So a cold battery will need to be warmed and, on a hot day, a battery may need to be cooled? I was thinking that Lucid lowered the DC fast-charging speed on batteries that are not pre-conditioned. Is this true? And if so, does this prolong battery life as well as if you had fully pre-conditioned...

    Pre-conditioning - When?

    I've also thought it would be nice to be able to turn on pre-conditioning remotely. For example, if you're on a trip and plan to charge in the morning, you could turn on pre-conditioning when you wake up and the car would be ready to charge by the time you've showered and ready to leave your...

    Pre-conditioning - When?

    Instead of always using a route planner, I often just plan a trip and the charging stops in my head. Frequently I forget to turn on preconditioning until I'm looking for the exit for the charging station. This has me wondering, does the battery always need 20 minutes of pre-conditioning before...

    We spent last week hiking in Colorado. Here we are on Old Fall River Road in RMNP.

    Front camera blocked warning

    The front window looked perfectly clean, but with sunlight shining directly through the window, I could see some faint water spots.

    Front camera blocked warning

    They seem clean. I'll clean them again.

    Front camera blocked warning

    I get the Front Camera Blocked warning usually about once every two weeks. It stays on for about a minute then turns off. Since the camera hasn't been blocked and it isn't raining when it happens, I'm wondering if it is a minor software glitch.
