    Lucid’s financial viability

    I have received three estimates on the value of my 2023 Lucid Air Touring (in mint condition at 23,000 miles)) that I bought in February 2023. These are from Carmax, Carvana and a local dealer, so not a direct sale to another consumer, which probably would give me a somewhat higher value.. The...

    What did you sacrifice for a Lucid Air?

    I didn't sacrifice anything for my Lucid Air Touring, other than perhaps some long term retirement security. The Air was the first time I went overboard buying a car.

    My philosophical view of Lucid

    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...

    Should I get a Lucid home charger?

    I've used the 40.50 amp Grizzl-E basic charger for the almost three years I've owned my Lucid Air. It was a bargain at about $499. It has built-in WiFi and timer settings, but I found it's better to disable the WiFi and simply use the Lucid's own charging clock. Also, the Grizzl-E is made in...

    3.3.9 Post update

    I have yet to receive 3.9, but am not concerned. Very few, if any, of Lucid's software updates have negatively affected performance or my interaction with my 2023 Air Touring. I'm always surprised how many Lucid owners experience difficulties after updates. I think the hundreds (or thousands)...

    Lucid Air 2.8.9

    2.8.9 has made no difference in my 2023 Air Touring. Everything works just fine and I don't feel or see anything substantially different.

    Mobile service issue

    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...

    I hear you! I've recent had an issue and expected better support from Lucid than I've received. (Which is none.)

    Can't initiate update from Android app

    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...

    Lucid support in decline?

    Updating the customer support issue, I notice multiple threads on this topic concerning different aspects. I've always received excellent customer support via email and calling the customer support phone number. When calling I always quickly connected with a true Lucid technical support...

    Small sample for Air Touring 157 miles 3.91 mi/kWh

    I always thought very high temperatures would lessen range. Yet yesterday we drove or 2023 Air Touring 288 miles in 98 degree temps (normal for you AZ folks, hot for us in Illinois) and scored 4.3 round-trip with mixed speeds of 60 mph on a state highway and and equal distance at 74 mph on the...

    False window open alerts

    I had the exact same problem. I think it started after 2.7. I visually and tactilely checked to insure the window was truly closed. It was closed. I opened and closed the rear window and it seems to have stopped. However, as with all software gremlins, it could return unexpectedly.

    Concern for 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...

    Lucid service

    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...

    Update 2.6.16

    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...

    Finally sold my pure…✌🏻

    You folks make me feel lucky. My 2023 Lucid Air Touring is 26 months old. I've experienced no major drivability problems. I've had a few annoying software glitches which updates eventually solved. I had a minor issue with the USB drive working and the friendly Goose Island, Chicago service...

    What topic are you most interested in for our next AMA?

    Please don't throw rocks at me, and I know I'm beating a dead horse, but really, how about Android Auto? Also tips beyond the obvious for maximizing range and whether Lucid plans any future updates that could increase range and/or speed up charging.
