    2026 Tesla Model Y - Jay Leno

    Has anyone had the recent Jay Leno's garage (highlighting 2026 Model Y) show up on their YouTube feed ? I watched the first 5 minutes of it and couldn't believe how much the 2026 model Y front end looks like the Air ! I suppose Immitation is the sincerest form of flattery ? ? I'm not...

    Would you still buy a Lucid Air living over 600 miles away of a service center?

    I've had a 2023 Air Touring purchased in Mar 2023 (< 2 years old). It has needed service twice - once a few months in (minor / annoyance fixes done in my driveway by the remote tech), 2nd time was last week for similar, plus TSB issues (like the sound system, squeaks, etc). This time...

    Electrify America charging free?

    Perhaps Lucid has sent emails with different language to customers based on there situation. I got 3 years of free charging with my Lucid, which will expire March of 2026. The email sent to me focuses on future idle fees and threatens to rescind my free charging, but only if I fail to add a...

    Electrify America charging free?

    I don't believe so. I read the email as - it only ends if you choose not to add a credit card to your LUCID wallet.

    Useful Battery Tips

    I watched the EE video (NMC edition) - very educational ! Near the end he does talk about some nuances of the NMC designs - siting slight differences between lower nickel content (~ 50%) and higher nickel content (~80%). Basically that, while one should not overstress about charging to a...

    Possibility of $7500 Gov't hand out going away . . . thoughts ? ?

    Got a news feed on my Fidelity acct - noting the "rumblings" of new administration ending the $7500 tax credit . . . as follows: 01:28 PM EST, 11/14/2024 (MT Newswires) -- Rivian Automotive (RIVN) and Lucid Group (LCID) shares fell 11.6% and 2.7% in recent Thursday trading, respectively, after...

    EV vs. ICE - safety + environmental

    I agree. I know there was a big deal made around Hertz getting rid of their (mostly Tesla) EV fleet - that they attributed to demand at the rental counter and maintenance costs. The latter really surprised me. I bought the Lucid in part because I thought my cost of ownership (vis-a-vis...

    EV vs. ICE - safety + environmental

    Sorry, just seeing scal_air's post on the Guardian article re lifetime CO2 impact of EV vs. ICE . . . that's exactly the kind of thing that I'm looking for. I expect my "EV sceptic" family/neighbors would see the Guardian as a biased / "liberal media" source - although their article is based on...

    EV vs. ICE - safety + environmental

    Preface - this is not intended to start a political conversation - Lord knows there's enough of that outside of this forum. That said, the media seems to have very different coverage regarding pros/cons of BEV's vs. ICE vehicles. Like many of you, I have both family + neighbors who watch...

    Fidelity news feed - typo ? ?

    First time doing a thread post from my phone - so if this shows up somewhere else my apologies in advance. Reading the news feed under Lucid on my Fidelity brokerage ap - there was a blurb (press release?) stating that Lucid is starting to take orders for the Gravity in Grand Touring trim...

    GM released v2h

    Hi All - Thought I'd reignite this thread, to see if anyone has heard more vis-a-vis GM's V2H . . . i.e. does anyone know someone who has a qualifying GM vehicle that has used it in V2H mode ? Or whether GM is fulfilling orders / installing their $5600 V2H enablement kit ( A number of...

    Air Headlight Specs

    Hey All - I have looked extensively to try to find specs on our Air headlights . . . specifically the whiteness (5K, 6K, 6.5K ? ? ) and the lumens output 5000, 6000, etc ? ? I am asking because I have an old Jag (XJ6) and am considering a headlight upgrade to LED's designed in a special 7"...

    Wiper blade replacements

    My Touring is a year old - haven't replaced the blades yet - they seem to be clearing as designed. That said, there is a design flaw (not uncommon) where the Drivers side blade flings excess washer fluid on the passenger side windshield, after the passenger side blade is most of the way down...

    Lucid OTA update 2.2.2

    I worked at a Dutch Pantry (attached to a Holiday Inn) in Wilmington DE one summer when I was in college (circa 1983). Hope I don't spoil your recollections of this fine establishment, but most of the food was factory made, frozen in big plastic bags. We would drop the bags into a steam...

    Regenerative braking and range

    Not unlike BMW making complex alternators and "smart" battery charging electronics that result in the aforementioned $700 battery replacement. Assuming a car battery last 7 years, what are the MPG gas savings and extended fuel savings for that 7 year period ? If I had to guess, probably...

    Regenerative braking and range

    Chiming in on this thread because I have a peripheral question about coasting and neutral. First, from my 40+ years of ICE driving experience, I have always been a fan of utilizing neutral for improved gas mileage and (theoretically) reduced wear on parts of the ICE drivetrain. Started with...

    Has anyone tried to fit a guitar case in the trunk or frunk?

    Standard Fender electric (deluxe hard shell) case (Strat / Tele) fits perfectly -flat across the rear (upper) trunk without putting the seats down. It's as if they designed the trunk to perfectly fit this guitar case !
