What is the obsession with OTA's around here? If you car needs it, it will get it, otherwise just carry on with your day. You really have time to burden a CSR to get them to push an update of little consequence?

Clearly they are out there, but I can't think of a car I have driven with the wiper controls on the right. I think the wiper control flaw is that other than the wash and mist wipe, all other settings are on the touchscreen with zero tactile reference requiring eyeballs for the right setting.

For people that read Consumer Reports, this thread is exactly what distinguishes a top rated pick and Lucid. They are both good cars, but the things that some discount as inconsequential are in fact the reliability differentiators. Sure, in the larger context of life in the modern world, these...

We generally don't do loans on cars (for more than a few months anyway) but for me, the opportunity costs and risk of allocating significant capital in a volatile EV market is too much. I'd rather know my costs by leasing the latest technology vs not knowing how bad and how fast the losses...

I understand some people disagree with his politics and its unfathomable to have such a polarizing figure at the helm, but if you believe in EV's as a solution then cheerleading plummeting Tesla sales as nothing but a political FU to Elon is interesting. I think some of the reduction could be...

To the OP, if you're primarily focused on 0-60 and HP metrics, you might be asking the Air to be something it isn't. I thought the Model 3 Performance was a real hoot but didn't take long to establish more than a cursory measure of a vehicle and wished for more range, refined interior, and...

I spotted an Air going south on I-505 yesterday afternoon, but then about a minute later I spotted a Aurora Green Gravity going the same direction!

People still read CR? 😆 I drank the kool-aid for a spell, but the data they collect includes some subjective elements which is where their bias comes in. CR might be OK for a dishwasher, and if you want to drive an appliance then CR might steer you right. Honestly I think CR did Lucid a...

Seems like the air bag algorithms and logic have improved a lot. The fact that the Lucid driver sustained no injuries is a least one data point that air bags would have done nothing to improve the outcome and would have added thousands of dollars to the repair bill (not to mention the potential...

Mr. Rawlinson publicly acknowledged the software is not optimal, so not sure what to make of the folks that are flabbergasted that a large segment are in fact dealing with software issues. With that said, if you fight through the issues and listen to the knowledgeable pioneers that freely...

There are people that also spent north of $100k (some a lot more) and they had problems before you did. As you acknowledge, this not a mature legacy mfg, it's a start up with finite resources, thus a service queue is to be expected. #entitledmuch? #firstworldproblems

The "whining" is not about the efficiency, or how the car drives. I agree though, outside of the software the car is awesome.

I'll take a slower pace of OTA's over more frequent updates that need patches to regain all the functionality I had before the update. For the love of all things holy, introduce more robustness, all the robustnesses!!!

I'm in the "great car, software is a fail" camp, but my wife can't get past "the software is a fail". My complaints on here are mostly fueled by her frustrations with the car. For success Lucid needs exponential growth and when only the most charitable among us thinks the software is flawless...

I just retrofit my Tesla wall charger with the Lucid unit. It topped up on the Tesla charger/Tesla Tap configuration as well as the Lucid charger. Same 60a circuit/48a charge as you. As a side note, the Lucid charger is really a beautiful piece of equipment. I love the attention to detail...

My wife likes the "hold" feature and I like the "roll" feature. When I drove the Air home from delivery the thunk was driving me crazy, so I get the OP's perspective, but its just a few buttons away from solved. I understand the mechanics of what is happening, but it does seem like a primitive...

Try having (2) teen drivers on your policy. Your 6 month premium is less than our per month costs. Granted it's CA and I have a few cars, but still, its crazy. I'll add that the lowest premium is sometimes the lowest quality coverage, so we look for companies that will actually cover any...

Android user here, but I largely gave up on the app as a reliable means to interact with the car. My wife is an iPhone user and primary driver and she too finds the app of low value, so we'll see if things improve for her. I'm just happy that the car usually unlocks when I walk up (with my...

It’s just a joke, like the one that says American cars don’t handle corners. Defending either stereotype is a road to nowhere even with ample evidence to the contrary, and as such there is no reason to create an argument otherwise.

I don't know, I think the Air is a perfect grand touring car, not a true sports car. Going to swift mode is all the sport package I need. I'm all for exceptional brakes, but with regenerative braking I hardly use the service brakes and they are quite capable as-is. Now I would be...
