I guess they expect customers to use a trailer to haul their bikes. lol.
It is interesting how far from the vehicle the tow ball is. That would seem to violate the whole reason you can't put more than a 110lb bike rack on...
Looks like more than 7.5" I guess it shows no one reads the manual.
Not sure if it's more or less common now, drag strips have a 1 foot rollout.
The Gravity GT is 3.2s with 1 foot rollout (with a slight downslope and 2 people in car). Really need to measure the GT and DE side by side to know for sure. If you look at the acceleration of the GT there's very little...
Maybe that would have prevented them from getting the nice round 120cf cargo volume. 🤣
I'm on the fence between 5 seat and 7 seat and this definitely pushes me towards 7 seat. I could just remove the 3rd row and get the same look...
That's obviously a business decision, not an engineering one. I say zero chance that the unibody is different between the two models.
I suppose there could be a totally different wiring harness that would be very difficult to replace but I doubt it.
I was referring to the picture in the configurator showing no slides on the 5 seat configuration. It looks like the sliding mechanism is currently the same for both 5 and 7 seat configurations. I guess they haven't finished making parts for the 5 seat.
Does it have the same sliding mechanism as the 3 row? The configurator shows a different mechanism (no slides in the 2nd row footwell).
They definitely skimped on make parts for the 5 seat (e.g. the moulding still had indents for the 3rd row mounts).
Here are the lab test numbers: https://www.fueleconomy.gov/feg/PowerSearch.do?action=noform&path=1&year1=2025&year2=2026&make=Lucid&baseModel=Gravity&srchtyp=ymm&pageno=1&rowLimit=50
The highway MPGe drops 9% with the bigger wheels (I expect the actual difference will be smaller if you drive at...
As far as I know they're dumb/passive. I think there are temperature sensors in outlets of vehicles and plugs of chargers. I think the chargers measure the resistance of the connection too.
They did put a sticker on it:
The Hyundai adapter is rated at 350A. It's actually a huge safety concern that there are adapters floating around that can't handle the maximum CCS current. It would be fine to use at a V3 supercharger (I = 50kW/400V = 125A) but unsafe to use at a high voltage/power NACS station.
Maybe not side to side but the hardware must allow leveling front to back. It would be crazy to link the front and rear air pressures on a vehicle with such a large payload and tongue weight.
If they're telling you to drive below 35mph the warning could apply to the case where the suspension has no air. From personal experience that feels like driving a vehicle with no suspension.
Doubtful that the mounting points are the same. Hopefully the Gravity sells as well as the X and there will be an aftermarket hitch (though maybe all the people who care about this buy Rivians now.)
What kills me is that there's a perfectly good piece of black plastic to put a hitch receiver behind.
Don't have a Gravity but the tow bar is the part permanently attached to the body (behind the bumper cover).
Lucid uses the same supplier, Oris, as Tesla does for the Model X. Here's what the Model X one looks like...
