I'm starting to wonder about that. A point of pride of Lucid engineering, especially under Peter Rawlinson, was the small size and light weight of the drive unit. Perhaps in and effort to make their DUs as light and as efficient as possible, Lucid have also succeeded in making them too...

Exactly this. Dashcams of any brand are indispensable for proving $hitty driving like this.

While we're banging on about dash cam systems, after having a Viofo dash cam installed in my Air, I noted with disappointment that the system has the same "blind spots" that the Tesla Dashcam does, right at the 10 o'clock and 2 o'clock positions. In both systems nothing that happens at those...

I ordered my GGT with tech package on August 10th. Apart from one email from my SA in mid-September, updating me that there were no updates, I’ve heard nothing else, nor seen any indication that my order has moved beyond the “ORDERED” phase. Nothing else to do but keep waiting.

Ouch! I had been thinking I was getting off lightly, until I got my auto policy renewal in my email today. That’s a $600 per annum increase. I’ve made only one claim (Comprehensive) in the three years I’ve owned the car. And that comprehensive claim was in regards to replacing my rear...

I’m really sorry to hear this. My Air GT is three years old. After 65,000 miles, nary a squeak, rattle or groan anywhere. And I’m having to drive over some really poorly maintained roads quite regularly. Bank vault solidity is another attribute that separates my Air from any Tesla I’ve ever...

Mine too. Quite disappointed that that colour wasn’t offered on the configuration page.

That IS beautiful. It doesn't look fridge -like at all, which was my fear. I wonder how much further it would set me back if I were to change my order now...

I don't get the the love with the "stealth" look, or the latest fascination with "matte wraps". Both make the cars they adorn look either muddy or dirty. I prefer maximum chrome and dazzling pearlescent shine, a la 1960s Motown or 1970s Toyota and Datsun. Basically I want my ride "pimped...

Or, rather and, here we go again with the “why can’t they do it like Tesla” refrain. Tesla got this one thing right from the very beginning - type in your name, any name, on the upper left corner of the main screen, make your seat, steering wheel and door mirror adjustments, and then press...

Unfortunately I’ve not had a chance to drive the car since doing a “steering-wheel-and-brake-pedal” reboot three days ago. I’ve come down with a really bad cold. I hope to be well enough to get out and about by this weekend.

Let me pile on here. We have the six-row, pass through configuration, but the third row is still tight, suitable only for animals, small children and amputees. At times I wish I hadn't been so wowed by the pedestal captains chairs in the the middle row, and gone with the manual three-seat...

As the author in the article said, "Lucid really, really needs a hit right now". This problem with the key fob, key card, and getting the car in gear, needs to be resolved pronto. No one gets a do-over on "initial impressions", not even our much loved and much vaunted Lucids.

Can this company think of any more ways to sabotage itself…

That’s right. The Model X second row - no armrests, no adjustments, no storage, but lots and lots of road roar.

I downloaded the update remotely last night while my car was parked in a car park west of LAX. When I jumped into my car a few hours later I discovered I couldn't engage Hands Free Autosteer. Also, the car seemed to have lost its ability to stay on track on freeway bends. Very strange...

Great idea! Almost makes me want to keep our Model X, but I’ll get over it soon enough. I do notice on your car that the MODEL X stamp is now back on the ceiling bar between the FWDs. They had it on our first November 2017-build Model X, but removed it on our second July 2018-build Model...

I’m short. All of 5 feet 6 inches tall. Still, what I noticed when I test drove the Gravity was that even though the design of the sun visors was the same as it was on the Air, they were well up and out of my way. The visors were mounted so high up on the windscreen that they were out of my...

I wonder if we, the unwashed-masses customers, are even supposed to see that.

Looks like the Model S and the Model Y had a baby.
