There really isn't any current info. Lucid has teased it, but there's been nothing concrete, and no specs or realistic timeline for release. I wouldn't be surprised if there are people toiling away on V2H at Lucid, but with all the shake-up that's occurred, I wouldn't be surprised if no one is...

Could be any and all of the above, except I highly doubt the more luxurious focus. Nothing about how Lucid talked about the Air Sapphire or future Sapphire vehicles was about the pinnacle of luxury.

I still think that a Sapphire Gravity could be a Gravity dialed up to 11 for off-road. I think a high performance on-road version is more likely, but neither would surprise me.

I'm also a fan of YouTube music. And I make heavy use of its offline downloads, so we can play music from my tablet when we're off the grid. And not having to watch ads on YouTube videos is great. Life's too short to waste time watching ads!

Yeah, going until the vehicle hits 2% charged seems like a recipe for a lot of disgruntled people. Turn it on, forget to turn it off, and then come back to the car when you may not have enough charge to make it to a charging station.

Sorry to hear that, hope your recovery is smooth!

It's a bit baffling to me that Lucid cannot get its act together and ensure that customers who want Homelink have it installed at the time they pick up their vehicle. They also have a mystifying lack of information available about it on their website. For example, if you go to the Lucid home...

I think the problem is that autonomous driving might kill you if it doesn't work well. Or to put it another way, being behind the wheel when autonomous driving goes wrong can be a scary experience. Compare that to early traction control systems, which didn't always work well, but the...

I think the threshold of market penetration where everyone is well aware of EVs is actually pretty low. I'm pretty sure that if 7-8% of the cars on the road were EVs, then almost all buyers would be well aware that they're an option, and they'd be likely to know someone who drives one. In...

There are a lot of used Airs with very low mileage on the Lucid inventory site, and the prices are much much lower. If I were in the market for a sedan, I'd jump on one of them. Alas, I'm looking for a Gravity, and it will be a while before they start appearing on the used car market in any...

Although Lucid has made big improvements to the Gravity, the media (including "influencers") tend to focus their attention on the new thing. As a result, initial coverage of the Gravity is scathing about the problems, and there isn't enough new press talking about how much better the vehicle...

Autonomous driving is genuinely extremely expensive for car companies to develop, and so it's entirely understandable that they're going to charge for it. The problem is that they're also trying to accustom consumers to paying monthly fees for their vehicle, regardless of whether the feature in...

True. But that's no different from the Air, and it didn't stop them from dialing it up for the Sapphire.

I trust my Toyota Highlander to never automatically lock the door, with the one exception being that the doors lock when I drive off. And even that I find annoying. Maybe it has a mode for autolock, but I don't know about it, and have not enabled it. The car locks only when the lock button is...

I'm not so sure. Lucid has described the Sapphire brand as performance focused. And while obviously that can include a track car, I think performance covers much more than just lap time on a race track. I'm betting on a Sapphire Gravity being announced, but I think it's possible for that...

As I understand it, while the spec sheet height for the R1S is a lot taller than the Gravity, the actually height of the body is only about 4" more for the R1S. The rest of the the height difference is just the suspension setup and how high off the ground the vehicle rides. It'd be interesting...

I feel like they talked about it in terms of unveiling a completely new Gravity variant, which to me rules out just announcing that they'll keep producing dream editions.

A Sapphire Air doesn't meet my cargo hauling needs. But a Sapphire Gravity? I probably won't cough up for what's likely to be twice the cost of a GGT. But I'll be looking at my brokerage statement and be tempted!

I think it's premature to suggest Lucid is in a death spiral. BMW is selling a lot of iX3s, it's true. But they have the advantage of more than just a well known brand and a lot of dealers: it's also a cheaper vehicle. Cosmos is Lucid’s opportunity to grow their volume much more than Air and...

Lucid still has their Sapphire page up saying "Lucid Air Sapphire is just the beginning, representing the launch of an entirely new performance-focused brand within Lucid, one which ushers in a new era of performance for the electric vehicle market. Additional Sapphire models will be available...
