I'll give you that. My personal opinion is, the Uber deal is mostly PR/image. Has little revenue value to Lucid. Yes, Uber bought some shares of LCID. No need to debate it, just my opinion.

Yeah, I agree with you. I don't know Emad like you do. I always see him as a competent and passionate hardware/power train guy. I am NOT saying he is ignorant about SW. And, as you know, SW was a real mess at Lucid for a long time. Nevertheless, when Emad became SVP in charge, he is on the...

Rivian is a cult!

Clearly, the ORIGIN of the SW mess Emad had no part in that. But when he assumed the SVP job of engineering and digital, didn't he own that problem? I am, in no way, blaming Emad for the SW mess at Lucid. To the contrary, if the recent UX3 release for the Gravity happened under his tutorship...

To me, Winteroff's tenure was interim CEO major accomplishments were hiring Timothée Chalamet as spokesman and throwing fancy parties in NYC. Not obvious what he has done to address Lucid's business and technical problems which got significantly worse in this time frame. My understanding was...

Winteroff was the interim COO. Obviously he was/is accountable. That said, are you telling me that Emad was only minding his business in powertrain the past 5Q? It certainly didn't come across that way.

I don't mean he is "academic". He is clearly a guru on motors, drive trains. What was not apparent to me is whether his working knowledge of technical and business beyond the power train was broad enough or he acted fast enough to change Lucid's errand trajectory (e.g., SW, service, costs...

and Kirk said that as the Enterprise sailed into the unkonwn! ;)

As an engineer by trade, I can understand the sentiments about Emad, his personality, his passion, and his contributions to Lucid and the EV industry. I never met the guy. But I watched many of his videos with Rawlinson. That said, Lucid is not an academic institution that advances EV...

Aside from spending, are any of the owners on this forum following what the Lucid Corporate strategy is? Let me pose a few questions.....feel free to educate me: > Air: I presume there will not be much upgrade to the Air. UX2 is done. UX3 on the Air may come later this year on next year...

The BIG DIFFERENCE was, Tesla was "the first mover" on the mass EV market. They can afford to, and they made mistakes. But they had a comprehensive vision of building battery packs, building charging stations, create a decent service network, etc.. Furthermore, Tesla expanded internationally...

I don't doubt Emad's passion and analytical skills. Emad has been in his position for more than a year now after Rawlinson's departure. It appears that Silvio and Emad are not seeing eye-to-eye on what path to take to get Lucid out of the woods. Lucid needs the mid-size to stay in business...

If you've watched many of the "tour de force" ultra-geeky power train tutorials from the early days of Lucid, Rawlinson and Dlala were Batman and Robin! Clearly, they both knew their (technical) stuff and laid the groundwork for Lucid's launch and persona. That said, it is unclear to me that...

On the Air Touring, the fast drop off from 200+kW to 150kW and lower in a few minutes is not a surprise, right? The charge curve drops off rather sharp after the initial 5-10min. Dropping off quickly to 25kW "in a few minutes" is kind of alarming. In an 8-station EA facility, more likely than...

To Marqie: I don't own a Gravity. As such, this is not relevant to me. That said, I applaud you for the notes your provided. This is the level of clarity we need from Lucid on their SW releases. Great job!

Success in life is fueled by dedication and executing what your promised. At the end of the days, it is not what your promised. It is what you actually delivered! Lucid has all the talents and potentials. They will only succeed when they deliver, over and over again!

China is a country that is poor in fossil fuel resources. But China recognized that impediment long ago. Instead, they invested massively in solar, hydro, wind, rare-earth, etc. as a national prerogative. The US, especially in the past decade, went the other way. in the pockets of big oil. 5...

I didn't buy a Tesla, and I have no plans to ever buy one. I am not a fan of Tesla. That said, inasmuch as I don't like Tesla, I give Musk a lot of credit in visioning and building the EV (and beyond) eco system. Tesla today is not just Model Y. Its GigaFactories, batteries, Solar...
