    Is software better?

    Progress is being made, pretty rapidly at times. Then, at other times they fix something and then there are problems with something else. Lucid's long term average for updates is every 18 days, give or take. My own belief is that owning/leasing a Lucid is still not quite out of early...

    Savage Geese Takes a Long Look

    Tesla basically lost me with the swipe screen based drive selector. It was hard to use and clearly worse than a physical alternative. It was also for a function that has to work correctly and predictably every time. No thanks.

    Savage Geese Takes a Long Look

    I adjust vents fairly regularly. I agree I don’t care as much about mirrors. I really like tradition shift, signal and wiper controls.

    Lucid Gravity GT 70MPH Range Test State of Charge Video - 345 Miles

    This is proportional, though a bit lower, to what many of us see with the Air. I have a Pure with 19 inch Aeros. Without the covers on the wheels I get about 350 miles of highway range on my 420 mile EPA rated car. It’s a fine result. I get more room, more power, and similar efficiency to a...

    Savage Geese Takes a Long Look

    I bought an Air Pure because of these guys. It wasn’t anything they said, it was watching them laugh like maniacs tossing the cheapest Lucid around a track. I was sold - even with all the other little gremlins and issues. That said, yeah, the crawl out of early adopter territory is so hard...

    Software Version 2.8.7

    Heh, I see I am very much not alone in the screen blank thing... and I was just musing how my vehicle has been solid for a while now...

    Software Version 2.8.7

    I have experienced a couple of weird gremlins since 2.8.7... my main display (speedometer) turned itself off once while I was driving. Stopping and putting the car into park brought it back. I also had the car audio (all of it, including blinkers) do this entirely new thing for me where sounds...

    Edmunds compares against Rivian R1S

    Yeah, Lucid is trying to claw its way out of the "early adopter" phase. The most damning part of the review for me was when he was going on about how he thought early Gravity had the same sorts of problems as early Air. I don't know if that's true, not being there for "early Air." But even...

    We are currently experiencing issues with our phone systems

    I get your frustration. Being stranded on the road in a new car has got to be infuriating...and that it might seem that the only card you have left to play is publicly threatening to hit the escape button on your expensive Lucid purchase(s) some place where that might hit a nerve (like on a...

    Real world 5.27 miles /kWh

    What is the exterior temp? My life of vehicle average is 3.9 (8,500 miles). On the freeway I am usually between 4 and 4.25 in the summer. HVAC doesn't struggle to keep up in the Mid-Atlantic or the Midwest, but it does seem like other folks have the same issue you have. I have the aero...

    White, QG, AG side by side

    The white really does look nice in person. But maybe I’m biased. My Air is white!

    Q3 Production/Sales Results are in

    Yeah, that seems unlikely... I mean I know it's a "fake it till you make it" world, but promising things you can't deliver seems like a bad strategy to me. I am very curious to know how Gravity demand is shaping up.

    Q3 Production/Sales Results are in

    A year ago they manufactured 1805 vehicles and sold 2781 in quarter 3, so they have doubled production and pushed sales up by about 30 percent. It would be surprising if they hit their production/sales goals for the year at this rate, but it's solid growth over last year, and a healthy sign...

    Gravity Vehicles Available Online

    Personally, I need them to get even more poorly optioned (touring trim) before it will be in my price range… seriously, base trim Lucids are well equipped for many of us… it’s one of the things to like about the company - they don’t cripple their product to make artificial segment distinctions.

    Air 2.8.4 software update

    Oops, I meant lane centering. It does have lane keeping assist, where it just bounces you off the line and back into the lane. But as you discovered, that is, um, limited.

    Air 2.8.4 software update

    Oooh, that's good to see. So far, 2.8 has been really solid for me, as was the proceeding update. I haven't had to soft reboot my car for months now. But I'm always happy to have a bit more robustness. What I really want for Christmas though is lane keeping assist for those of us with DD...

    My experience 1 month owner

    The glass roof is louder than the aluminum one by a noticeable amount. Honestly, the view is great, but the trade offs for it are real.

    [RESOLVED BY OTA 2.7.0] Car won’t go into DRIVE !

    I have occasionally had the sound system fail - no chimes or audio, but that has seemed unrelated to me, and it hasn’t happened for a while - probably a month or more. I do notice that very occasionally the car seems to be rebooting, not just waking up when I get in. The pilot panel goes black...
