    Lucid Q2 2024 Results (official per Lucid Website)

    This is what I'm talking about! It's great that Lucid recognizes how important a robust and stable UI is for mainstream success. They already did the heavy lift on the driving dynamics and powertrain efficiency. Curb rash assist? This will be good for my relationship with my wife who is...

    Savage Geese: Long term Air review

    When the software is generally the source of let down in an otherwise fantastic EV, its natural for owners to want better better processing power. I'm a big fan of Lucid, but not so much to delude myself into believing there is no room for improvement. Early adopters are willing reframe a lot...

    Savage Geese: Long term Air review

    At 11;57 mark he says "the last 8 months" (referring to how many times he did a hyper start) which could imply he's in a '24 model and has mislabeled his video? It could also mean with the previous Air's he's had, but it is curious if he has a '25 already.

    Savage Geese: Long term Air review

    A motor with 670hp potential run at 430hp is the efficiency Mr. Rawlinson is describing, and exactly what the Pure is doing.

    Trunk issues

    The trunk has been an ongoing struggle on our Pure. It usually closes, but sometimes struggles and really torques the lid in the process. The frunk doesn't open like it should, I have to go in and out of the car hitting the button and pulling on the hood to finally get it to pop up. Not a big...

    RESOLVED lucid's windshield sunshade

    I have the heatshield roll up style. I've been using this style for years and its been flawless. Light, always stays intact, and it fits perfect.

    Lucid in Accident

    I'm going with road rage and the BMW driver angrily backed up onto precious.

    1st car wash.

    The cover could have been damaged in transit or during service center work before the car was delivered.

    SiriusXM radio ID already assigned

    Turns out it multiple cars (maybe up to 5) having the same ID. Called Lucid CS, so will advise on the outcome.

    SiriusXM radio ID already assigned

    Here is an odd one...we called SXM about our subscription and after numerous transfers and call backs, we were told our radio ID is already assigned to another Air. I searched around and haven't heard of this, but thought I would check the brain trust as a next step.

    1st car wash.

    Fortunately I can home wash year round. I love keeping my cars clean, but not a fan of traditional washing. This time of year its usually just dust/pollen and light tree sap mist. Foam cannon is a game changer. Lather it up, let it sit, rinse, blow off most of the water, micro fiber final...

    Tesla Model S/X sales crashing

    We strongly considered an S for a replacement for our 3 but Lucid was always on the list. It seemed like a "safe" choice since we had prior experience (and it was fine), home charger, and the supercharger network. The supercharger access will be resolved in 6 months, I have an adaptor to use...

    Press versus reality

    I take it as the difference between a risk averse finance guy writing an article with historical odds on his side and a true car guy like Jason Cammisa acknowledging that Lucid makes a BEV that drives like the greatest ICE sedans from the last 20 years. The technology, efficiency, driving...

    Air to Gravity trade-in

    We're still early days on the BEV market as a whole, not so sure about the 15+ year ownership proposition. Tesla stripped away 10's of 1,000's of dollars of equity overnight for early Plaid buyers. Even if that doesn't matter to you, you're still rolling on ancient (possibly unsupported)...

    looking for Quantum Gray pics with bear decal

    I took this close up at the time of delivery, not the best. I can't believe I don't have a better pic yet. It's a fairly subtle combination on QG. I love the bear and what the bear represents (to CA). I'm a native CA resident and love the state, but I can understand its not for everyone.

    Here is an easter egg you might not know about: Logo projector option!

    High frequency Sound

    I'm certain the noise is meant to cast a wider net than for vision impaired folks, but I still think its unnecessary. In any case, its just my opinion on a decidedly first world issue.

    High frequency Sound

    This is definitely the pedestrian tone, its artificial. I guess I was more curious why it just started yesterday, but I'm fully aware of why its there and where its coming from. Then I was just thinking out loud about how silly it is. My neighbor has a Toyota Hybrid that I can hear the fake...

    High frequency Sound

    I understand that, just saying its a bit silly, and the noise level varies between brands. Toyota for instance is crazy loud.

    High frequency Sound

    About 10 days into Air Pure RWD ownership and yesterday was the first day I noticed the low speed pedestrian tone. When we first got the car, we checked for the tone in a quiet parking garage and heard nothing. Now driving with the windows down its very clearly heard. I wonder why it wasn't...
