The Southfield employees are employed by Lucid and openings for Customer Care Specialists are posted on their website. I suspect that the shift in call centers from Newark to Southfield was driven by payroll/benefits as the open positions have an hourly rate of $21-25 per hour.

I think it's a little of both. The continuum of robotaxis runs from the Jaguar/Waymo partnership where Jaguar did little more than provide the vehicle and Waymo did the rest, to the Cybercab model where the vehicle is designed by Tesla from the ground up. The Lucid/Nuro partnership appears to...

I had my Air in service in Scottsdale in May for some minor trim issues. It was about a month to book the appointment and they had the car for about 3 weeks. I suspect the repairs were completed in a matter of hours. They were transparent through the entire process and did provide weekly...

Short term strategy is to convert inventory to cash. Discounts accomplish that objective. Hopefully that cash is then put into customer service. For all the money that has poured into Lucid, it appears to me that cap ex has been the priority over op ex. We've seen factories built and new...

I paid $4,500 to replace an AC compressor on a 5 year old BMW a couple of years ago. Luxury cars are expensive to maintain outside of warranty.

Other than the items you already noted, the biggest difference is likely in how the 2025’s are optioned. The 2022/23 models were typically fully optioned whereas the 2025 may or may not be. The biggest things that may be missing are dream drive pro and/or surreal sound pro. And obviously the...

The likelihood of the company settling a dispute is lessened each time you disparage them. Your attorney should be advising you of this. If you have a pending lawsuit you would be well advised to let the legal proceeding play out in court without commenting on the underlying dispute or issues...

Don't know. And we obviously don't know how the facts or law are laid out in this case. We've only heard one take and have no way of determining if it's accurate or objective. What's clear is that you'll never get a satisfactory result by making your case here.

Particularly one where an arbitrator ruled in favor of the company. But he now has two choices. He can argue his case in a court of law or air his grievances in the court of public opinion. He's obviously chosen to do the later.

I believe the target, as referenced in the article was "fall." But that suggestion was provided in January. Given the change in leadership and more recent comments I would expect that UX 3.0 will be released when it's ready. The current leadership team is placing more emphasis on getting...

Maybe. But for the KSA they will have accomplished their goal of building a modern auto manufacturing facility while developing the knowledge of how to design, engineer, and produce cars. They can accomplish their long term objectives with or without Lucid.

I suspect that’s not a viable option in the short term. And moving production out of the KSA would run counter to the PIF’s investment thesis and Saudi Vision 2030.

There are two sides to this story. The only one’s who know the other side are Lucid and the arbitrator that ruled in their favor.

Correct. And I believe their rep clarified that point on this forum a few months ago.

The CEO has acknowledged that prior products were rushed and released before they were ready. So it that vein it seems that a deliberate rollout is exactly what Lucid needs. This is a company that can ill-afford another botched software launch. It would completely undermine the new leadership...

Maybe. But condemning an entire profession is a bit over the top. And using this platform to attack individuals who can’t defend themselves is not cool. Take it to Glassdoor.

And with all these facts on your side you still lost your arbitration. It makes no sense.

It's a reflection of their primary investor's priorities. For the PIF Lucid is the platform that allows them to invest in new technologies and domestic manufacturing. That strategy has stayed intact through 3 CEO's. And it's quite possible that this ambitious strategy has left the company...

I would focus on the cars “in service” date as that will start the warranty clock. If the car has any issues you’ll want to get them addressed before the initial warranty expires. We’re only starting to see what repair costs look like out of warranty. Changes really didn’t occur until the...

Perhaps. I’ll just be happy when they no longer have to announce when they’ll be running out of cash. Because that’s not a particularly attractive selling point to prospective employees or investors.
