    Gravity Delivery Discussion

    Having owned an EQS580 SUV (traded in 2 weeks ago) and a Gravity DE, I prefer the Gravity. MB understates its range, while I find the Gravity's range to be overstated. In practice, I might get 10 more miles in my Gravity (which has the larger wheels), which is negligible. Charging speed is a...

    What would you change?

    Indeed, it is. Adjusting the seat is easier when you use the horizontal screen (where the massage function is located) instead of the seat buttons. My spouse and I were impressed by how adjustable the seat was. The lumbar support, seat extensions, and other features were quite adjustable. My...

    Gravity Delivery Discussion

    The HUD does not photograph well however the artifacts do show up. I find the bluish glare very annoying depending on the angle of the sun and the direction I am driving. This is not a particularly good implementation of a HUD. I hope they will be looking at different tech going forward. If this...

    Gravity Delivery Discussion

    The two USB-C ports in the front are 100W - that will charge any laptop computer or electronic device. The power is really only for items that you might need camping or tailgating, etc. If these are not important to you I would just go ahead and get a Gravity without the power ports and HUD...

    lol yes…. The error goes away after delivery…. And then it does show software versions…. But not a very exciting page

    "Upgrades"

    This indicates that the “base” model comes with all the tech - you just need a software update to enable it…. Crazy…

    Software version 3.2.2

    This is a Gravity specific software update. I believe the other update is for the Air.

    Software version 3.2.2

    Agree. And the wireless charging messages keep appearing as well. Which this update was also supposed to address. Of course these are relatively minor software issues.

    Software version 3.2.2

    Installed. Just drove to the store. Had an error message still pop up about headlight issues. So random error messages still seem to be appearing.

    Gravity Delivery Discussion

    Good luck! I completely understand your disappointment. We have one of the few GDEs that has been well-behaved. If you genuinely want a car quickly, work with your SA. Maybe something with different wheel sizes etc will appear. I also know from my SA that Lucid will highly prioritize GDE...

    Software version 3.2.2

    Indeed. Hopefully some of the pesky error messages go away. But where is the update for the key/fob!

    Real World Hwy efficiency numbers

    Gen2 quad with all terrain tires - worst case efficiency. And driving 200 miles from Orlando to Naples (super flat no elevation change. Sea level!). It was 100 degrees last weekend. Just 2 people. Driving in the early evening with so many bugs it felt like it was raining. The car is rated at 325...

    Real World Hwy efficiency numbers

    No comparison. The Rivian is terrible for efficiency. Less than 1.9m/kwh. And the AC struggles. Putting xpel on the windows. The quad and the tires really kill efficiency. But it tows much easier than the Lucid.

    Real World Hwy efficiency numbers

    So far my GDE gets 2.74 miles/kwh over 600 miles. In hot sun in south Florida about 95 degrees when driving. I have 22/23 wheels. Most of these miles were on the highway at 75-80mph. Not that impressive so far. They do say in the owners manual that it is not as efficient in the first 2000...

    Gravity Plan B

    I took delivery of a GDE one week before I took delivery of my Rivian… (4 days ago for the Rivian). Really both cars are far nicer than the Tesla. The Rivian has features like the Tesla - no key or key card needed with just the phone as key which is a big plus (of course the keys work which is...

    Gravity [Grand Touring] Reservations Tracker

    So the GDE that I picked up in Miami 10 days ago was truly an orphan. The buyer’s financing fell through and the bank(s) would not give them a loan. Something about a person making 100K buying a 140K car with 4 other car loans. Their loss was my gain - I had been speaking with my SA about taking...

    Gravity Bugs / Issues

    This evening my car was in deep sleep…. It took several tries for the key card to work. I think you are largely correct with your ideas. Somewhat incompatible systems that when in deep sleep seem to get confused. I was able to get the car to respond after multiple tries however I worry when I...

    Gravity Delivery Discussion

    1) No there is really no electric car whine - not sure why you called it a Lucid motor whine - all of my Tesla's had significant motor whine - the Gravity is quiet. 2) Wind noise is well Suppressed - it is a very quiet cockpit - you of course have the option of getting the double insulated...

    Gravity Delivery Discussion

    Curious thing about the picture above - they may be using a different trailer receiver from the receiver they supply with the tow package - this unit in the picture appears longer and of a somewhat different design. Of course I'm sure you can make this work well for you - its just not as simple...

    Gravity Delivery Discussion

    OK - so here are the pictures of the trailer hitch and the electrical plug. This is not a particularly easy trailer hitch to install - if you use this frequently you will likely begin to hate the engineer that designed this - honestly very challenging to get this installed. I put a trailer tow...
