My experience with very early 4WS systems was dramatic. It actually felt like if you didn’t adjust to the swing of the rear of the car you could actually oversteer and have the rear rendered bang into something. It was like drifting in slow motion.

I set my Easy Entry suspension setting to High for that reason. Plus the Gravity is already so low to the ground it’s actually harder for me to get out of the car in the low setting than High. Compared to something like the Rivian where the “Kneel” setting is still too tall for most people I...

Mine was available instantly after picking up the car.

Dynamic Handling Package is a game changer. The rear wheel steering is actually pretty subtle but it obviously changes the turning radius of the car and stability at speed. My first experience with rear wheel steering was in a Honda Prelude in the early 1990s. That car has so much rear steering...

Okay, I’ve done a few hour-long drives in my Gravity now with Dream Drive 2 Premium (or Dream Drive Premium 2?). I think I can reasonably answer my own question if anyone else is trying to compare the them. Caveats, I don’t have DD2Pro, just Premium. I’m not sure if Pro has many more functions...

Good point about the rear facing car seat. But I have to disagree that the airbag is turned off in most cars with the same amount of shifting. This wasn’t an extreme amount of contortion my kids were doing. It was a pretty normal adjustment of posture that they’ve done thousands of times in our...

Did she ever happen to use a Treo smartphone back in the day? I had one and I was working with someone else who had the same model. Her Treo locked up/died while she was on her corded phone. She flipped it over, opened the back case, removed the battery, replaced it and put the cover back on all...

The Gravity definitely does.

I’m creating a new thread on this because I consider it to be a pretty important safety issue. In my Gravity with both of my teenage daughters in the front passenger seat, the airbag is disabled alarmingly often while they’re sitting in the seat. If they shift their weight enough to unload the...

True. But I’m lazy.

I almost always operated the FWDs with my key fob specifically to avoid confusion. My driver’s door though would often fight against me when it didn’t agree with what I was trying to do manually. In tight parking situations if I opened the door and tried to squeeze out without banging the door...

Frankly I’m surprised that the one I test drove is the “improved” version of the car. I’ve read a lot about Rivian over the years as well as I just like to keep up on the EV market. When the Gen 2 came out there was so much talk about how the ride was so much better than Gen 1. Having never...

Yes. It seems in general that the steering wheel controls need to sense your finger on the buttons to activate them when pressed. If I cover the custom button with my thumb it activates nearly every time. If I try to push the edge of the button it won’t register at all. I find the same thing...

Ball or hitch receiver?

I believe that's basically what you ordered. Gravity comes with Dream Drive 2.0 as standard. So the upspecs from there are based on 2.0 rather than Air's 1.0. I think they just labeled it differently perhaps to prevent confusion from people new to Lucid (like me).

Hmm. Can't say I have any complaints about the suspension tuning. Having test driven an R1S recently and daily driving a Model Y I find the suspension on the Gravity to be amazing. I took it through a rough back road near out house that I've driven regularly and the Gravity is a revelation...

Yeah. I noticed this behavior too. The buttons won’t register a press unless your finger is pretty solidly covering most of it. It’s counterintuitive because it clicks but doesn’t work until you “lay” your finger on the button a bit more. Not sure why it needs to sense a change in capacitance to...

Oh. That’s strange. I wish there was a way to assign the suspension firmness independently. I find Smooth to be a bit floaty for me.

Did the later X’s still rub the paint off their door jams where the rubber bumper from the FWD hit it? The SC just rubbed some touch up paint on it and placed a small circle of PPF when I reported it. That lasted for literally about 2 days.

I got my Gravity yesterday with Yosemite Purluxe. I was considering changing the interior material but the car was already built and being prepped for delivery. I was thinking about this thread when I was driving today. It is definitely not as smooth as the material on the center console cover...
