If you call Lucid Financial and follow the automated voice prompts, it will give you the stated residual. However, if you speak with a customer service representative, they’ll put you on hold and check for an updated buyout price. I’ve done this twice—once before my final payment and again after...

Many cars are built on essentially the same basic platform for years. Larger manufacturers can keep them looking fresh by changing trim every few years, adding a new grille, revising bumpers or making other cosmetic changes. Lucid really doesn’t have the resources or volume to play that game...

All of the Air sedans have pretty much been built from same parts since debut. Software has matured, heat pump added, processor updated and systems tweaked, but the basic body and trim is the same. They can't really justify or afford to change the basics right now, but I hope that some updates...

I have been a Lucid supporter and fan, and intended to get another Air as my lease is over. However, I am getting concerned about the support for the AIr.. I spoke to a rep at local Lucid showroom and asked about current sales... He said Gravity inventory is moving with current incentives, but...

Realistically, there is no simple way to retrofit Gravity platform and gear to Air.. This would require serious redesign and revisions at a very high cost. They are not Toyota, and cannot afford to do this. They also don't sell enough Airs to warrant this investment when they are on a...

Big difference is that Tesla has other big sellers and the S was lagging in sales... even fewer than the Air in this final run.. I don't think the new Lucid management team is using the Lucid playbook from here forward..

Exactly. I don’t see Lucid investing heavily to re-engineer the current Air or retrofit it with Gravity-based technology and features. The company appears to be moving into a leaner operating mode—controlling costs, simplifying production and concentrating its resources on the midsize platform...

Yes, that is what I see on the configurator... Black is standard. However, white and grey are $1000 uncharge. Odd? I can only assume that they are working to increase production line efficiency, so likely they will arrange to build all Pure orders in groups, with simplified options and colors.

You cannot compare the Tesla situation with Lucid in this case. The Tesla S has been around forever.. The Air actually outsold it recently, even with relatively anemic numbers.. Time for it to retire. The X had its own share of issues and Tesla has other 3 row options. For the next year...

For 2027 the massaging seats are only available in the Grand Touring... It appears you can get with leather, but PurLuxe is standard surface.

I had my OpenLane inspection today and it went well.. I was worried about a few issues but inspector was cool and easy going. Told me my tires are right at limit line which means I need to tread lightly (pun intended). That will impact my thoughts about extending because I could need to pay...

Today seems to be the latest update with an active order portal, which revealed some changes... I was sad to see the Aeronaut wheels go too. They have not routinely reduced options, but this is a new model year and they are focusing on simplification of the ordering and options

I doubt they will offer lease deals on ordered cars until they finish selling off 2026 inventory... Furthermore, management made it clear that they are going to limit production and are not going to resort to heavy discounts and promotions in order to move cars in the future. However, they...

It is good news to finally see 2027 Air moving forward.. They obviously have limited option overlaps between the trims to simplify production. Odd that they still have Air with short-lived Aeronaut wheels as display photo on Lucid site, but those are no longer available for order. Those were...

Thanks, but see my last response above... I did finally get a call from the Torrance sales and service center yesterday, and assume they are same ones working with you. That does not excuse the lack of response from national sales line, which is where most folks would call to get information...

Late yesterday I was contacted by a rep from my local Lucid Studio. I’m not sure whether it was related to the voicemails I left with the national sales number or came through another referral. He reviewed current inventory based on the specs I’m looking for, but unfortunately the choices are...

I decided to try again today... I called main number twice and was asked to leave my name and number for a return call. I then called local Lucid studio number, and it also went to voice mail.. A critical communications breakdown if they want to succeed with direct sales...

I find OPENLANE’s role with Lucid pretty interesting. They appear to be more than just the independent company doing lease-end inspections. OPENLANE is also heavily involved in vehicle remarketing and wholesale auctions, including Lucids. My assumption is that its inspection data feeds directly...

The option to extend the lease for five months definitely offers some breathing room. The downside is that, in most cases, once you go beyond the original turn-in date, you’ll have to pay for another year of registration—which is pretty expensive here in California. You should be able to get a...

DDP and SSP are also key to me, but I want aluminum roof and prefer platinum trim...Hard to find anthing with those options in my color choices. Surprised how few cars are available with SSP. So, surprised to hear that they took a new order for a 2027?? I assume they stopped building 2026...
