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...

Does anyone know if when doing a factory reset whether that deletes tidal log in?

I've never experienced a major problem after an update, but after 2.9 the car keeps down-grading my charging amperage. I've never had the problem. I have a 48 amp hardwired charger on its own circuit. That means the car can charge at 40 amps. The charger has never had a problem and I know it is...

My 2023 Lucid Air Touring with 19-inch wheels is going on 25K miles. My driving is about 2/3 local, 1/3 freeway at 73 mph. We have very cold winters. My average efficiency is 3.6 mi/kwh. Recent updates seem to be slightly increasing efficiency, but I can't prove it.

As I've written before, if you want much of the comfort and luxury, in a much smaller car, check out the Mercedes CLA 250+ or 350+ EVs, finally available in the U.S. The 250 does not accelerate like a Lucid Air Touring, but the 350 (dual motor version) comes close. BMW does not own the small...

I see nothing wrong with Lucid charging for the upgrade. Hardware is very different from software. In the three years I've owned my Air Touring I've received dozens of *free* updates and upgrades. I don't think there was anything in the sales contract specifying that I would. Lucid has taken the...

The Mercedes CLA 250+ and 350+ EVs currently are available on the U.S. West Coast and soon appearing throughout the country. I seriously suggest that if you want something as luxurious as the Lucid Air Pure, but smaller, check out the the Mercedes. Fully-loaded (but not AMG) the 250 lists for...

Later this summer (before the warranty expires) I'm trading my Air for a Mercedes CLA 250+ EV. (If I wanted all-wheel drive I could choose the CLA 350+, which has modest range penalty over the 250 and is only slightly more expensive.) The fully-loaded 250 costs just a little more than half of...

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...

Since this has veered off to discuss the competition, the Mercedes CLA 250+ EV sedan (the 350+ is the same car with AWD), just arriving in the U.S. is turning a lot of heads in Europe and especially the U.K. The reviews in the U.K. have been very favorable. The base model is only $48K and fully...

I've owned my Air Touring for over three years and never had an issue unlocking with the keyfob.

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'd rate my 2023 Air Touring an 8. Maybe 8.,5. Most of the faults of this car are my faults for buying it-- that is, not acknowledging the issues that came with owning such a high performance, luxury car from a new manufacturer. The car has suffered no hardware problems having just reached...

I'm currently in negotiations with a car dealer about trading it, but I still have the car. Mileage is now 24,500.

Updated normally to 2.8.30 yesterday on my 2023 Air Touring. I notice *no* difference in operation, performance, and display appearance.

I'd love a baby Air. When I bought my Air Touring I didn't realize that it was such a large car. I don;'t need all that space. We rarely have guests in the backseat. I'll soon be trading my Air for a baby Mercedes EV. If Lucid only offered a luxurious, fully-equipped model the size of a Honda...

Lucinda. Except when there's a major problem. Then it's Lucifer

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...

Borski's comments to this forum over the four years I've been reading it have continually been the best. Rational, wise and enthusiastic. I liked his line in this thread: "Don’t like driving? This probably isn’t the car for you." I bought an Air Touring three years ago, It was my first...
