I tried posting this a week ago, but I never saw it appear. I traded my Lucid Air Touring a week ago. I'll live without an EV until September when my Mercedes CLA250+ arrives. I joined this forum in June 2022. This forum has been invaluable to my understanding, operation and enjoyment of my...

I needed information on how to remove all personal information from my Air. I tried "factory reset" and the next day my personal settings and info were back. I phoned customer support and waited on hold for 30 minutes. I finally pressed "1" for a call back. It's been three days, no call back...

I suspect our Lucid Owners Forum represents only a small fraction of Lucid owners. So it's difficult to extrapolate the overall positives and negatives from Lucid owners. With that said: There are two threads. The car itself and the company responsible for the car. Most of the people on the...

I recently was contacted by someone interested in my Lucid, a listing I posted at least six months ago. It had all the signs of a scam. The person wanted to have it picked up and trucked 750 miles away. When I told him that would not happen until the cashier's check cleared my bank the person...

I realize this has been addressed before, but if any of you who regularly drive in cold northern climes could provide a range estimate, it would be greatly appreciated. I drive a 2003 Lucid Air Touring with the standard 19-inch Pirelli all-season tires. I need to make a 120 mile drive each way...

I've been reading this forum for almost four years and driving a Lucid Air Touring for going on three years. I'm one of the lucky ones who has endured no major flaws with my Lucid and reasonably good service from the Goose Island crew in Chicago. Some of the horror stories I see on this forum...

Lucid Air Touring purchased February 2023. Zenith red metallic with front PPF and ceramic coating. 23,000 miles. Has received scheduled service from Lucid at 10,000 and 20,000 miles. Interior Tahoe leather. 19-inches wheels, minor rim rash. Tires in good condition. Garaged. No body or glass...

This past June when I brought my Lucid Air to Goose Island in Chicago the service coordinator asked me why I drove all the way up from central Illinois when the mobile van could have done it in my driveway. This week I suffered a flat tire in my driveway. Service told me to take my Lucid to a...

Since I started driving my Air Touring in February, 2023 I've always initiated updates from the Lucid app on my Android phone (first Pixel 6 and then Pixel 8). It always worked flawlessly. I keep my phone consistently updated, both in the Android operating system and with the most recent Lucid...

As noted in a separate post, I brought my car to Goose Island, Chicago for its annual service. That's also the location from which I picked up my Air Touring in February, 2023. When I picked up my car back then, the place was bustling. There were two delivery advisors and lots of activity. They...

My recent service experience at Goose Island was bittersweet. The staff was friendly, courteous and efficient. They even loaned me a Air GT for the afternoon. My car was returned washed and in good condition. I brought the car in for its yearly checkup. I almost passed out when I received the...

Is it my imagination or did the most recent update significantly increase efficiency? In mild weather I generally was getting 3.5 - 4 mi/kwh with my 2023 Touring with 19-inch wheels. With 2.6.16 I'm now regularly getting better than 4 mi/kwh. My driving style hasn't changed and nothing else in...

Lucid Air Touring, glass roof, Zenith red. 19-inch wheels, 14,000 miles. 2-motor 620 horsepower. Tahoe interior, full leather. (14-way powered, heated-ventilated front seats) This was one of the final models released with all sensors and electronics for upgrades. I paid for Surreal Sound Pro...

Strangest thing happened a week or so ago. After flawless scheduled charging since Lucid added that update, my 2023 Air Touring started charging as soon as I plugged it into my charger, even though it was set for scheduled charging eight hours later. So I stopped charging, removed the cable...

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...

https://arstechnica.com/cars/2024/07/the-lucid-air-pure-review-lower-weight-better-steering-amazing-efficiency/ Could ask for a better review than this from a truly reputable website.

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...

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...

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/
