    Changing Display From Percentage to Miles Remaining

    Actually, I usually do but I have the units for SOC set at % on the glass cockpit below the speedometer and then have the pilot panel opened to trip information and watch the mi/kWh from last charge. But I understand what you are getting at, it would be very nice to have both up on the glass...

    Lucid cold weather performance as bad as Tesla

    Since the temp has dipped to freezing or below, I have been getting between 2.5 and 3.0 mi/kWh depending on my mood, how heavy my foot can get and head winds. Even with the lower mileage efficency, I am having a ball driving my Lucid. You should have no problem getting between 250 and 300...

    winter driving

    Could be if it is a wet and heavy snow. Our Lucid breezed through 15 inch of powder before our community's roads were plowed. It is certainly not something I wish to do often but a personal emergency required me to venture out. The Lucid was a gem!

    winter driving

    Bel, Did you still have your 21in summer tires on or did you slip at Wendy's with snow or all weather tires? As you may know, I have 19 in all weather tires so I am assume I have a bit more traction than the 21s. Hope you have survived this crappy weather well.

    winter driving

    I agree with your thoughts regarding ice and deep snow. No need for fear...just caution and a plan to deal with possible trouble, like with any car.

    winter driving

    Drives very well in snowy and even icy roads. However, you have to drive very carefully on ice because if the car ever slips, you will be fighting to get back control of a 5000+ lb sliding car. Its computers will be working to get you back control but if you are driving at excess speed....good...

    Impressive test drive

    Driving my Lucid is like therapy. Each time I park it in my garage and step out of it, I have a big smile on my face. My wife now calls me her chauffeur because I look for any excuse to drive, including running her around while she does her errands or goes to various appointments. It helps to...

    FIrst Drive On Icy and Snowy Roads

    You know, what you wrote seems very logical and reasonable. However, I have driven my Lucid up and over the Rockies in icy fog, icy roads where salt and sand have been applied and, this week on roads covered in 15 inches of snow. Follow that up with more sand and salt. While the sides of the car...

    FIrst Drive On Icy and Snowy Roads

    Thanx for sharing. However, I am not sure what you mean when you say that it is a negative that the car pushes through deeper snow seamlessly. Could you explain. Thanks.

    FIrst Drive On Icy and Snowy Roads

    As I watched the first snow fall this morning, I started to lick my lips in anticipation of being able to try out my Lucid on icey and snowy road conditions. The wind was blowing such that it was announced in a NOAA warning that the wind chill was minus 10! Whoa, up here in the Pacific...

    10K or more on your Lucid? Post your experience here...

    I agree with just about everything you said. Regarding hardwired music player, I got around that problem by just dusting off my old IPOD with 86G of music on it and connected it via Bluetooth. Each time I approach the car, my favorite music playlist fires up and puts a smile on my face. Maybe...

Here is a EV charging map dedicated to the Cascade Loop, just...

    Anyone Interested in a Lucid Weekend Taking The Cascade Loop in 2023?

    I am posting this to ask if anyone would be interested in taking our Lucids on The Cascade Loop when the better weather returns to our neck of the woods in 2023. If you are not familiar with this loop, it is basically the North Cascade Highway (Route 20) across the Cascades, then US 97 south...

    New Member about to pick up GT!

    You are in for many "rides of a lifetime" with your most amazing Lucid. It just loves to go, go and go some more. Congrats and enjoy! Unfortunately, given our cold weather up here, you will have to wait until the spring to get the better mileage efficiency but I have found that it really is not...

    LCID just went below $8

    WIth the perception of the car that your shared, I would strong recommend that you save your money and cancel your order. Get something that would better meet your needs and in which you would have confidence in. For what it is worth, a recent post thread demonstrated that many actual owners...
