    “Protect & Swerve” Lucid Air Police Cruiser Edition in SJ Studio today.

    I wonder if those push bars are taped on or actually mounted :)

    Engineering Explained. This is bad.

    I used to use my frunk a lot, but found myself recently not using it as much. I just have the spare and jack in the lower front trunk well mostly. I haven't had a probelm with mine to date. Is it the latch mechanism or the alignment not causing it to latch for those with persistent issues?

    Eric Bach, fired Chief Engineer, sues!

    There was a point in time when you looked at Lucid's leadership page and you saw a massive list of executives. I thought at that time that was a crazy number for a company that young, even a car company. A lot of them came from "big names" in auto and tech. Sometimes big names are just that...

    Gravity SW update inbound...

    Could also have been a result of a turf war / politics getting in the way, hence the management changes. In retrospect i kind of tripped on this when I was at the Lucid open house in 2024 asking questions to the executive team about their team dynamics. Let's just say i might have...

    Gravity SW update inbound...

    Demo-ware is a lot easier to make look good thank "real life everyday software" I'm going to say all the bugs were there before, just the failure cases were conveniently "managed".

    This was a metaphorical story :) gentle allusions to lucid ownership that owners could relate to.

    Engineering Explained. This is bad.

    A parable of love: In my youth I met a girl, she was unlike any other I had met. A breath of fresh air, someone different from all the others. She had a great personality, was very athletic and had great proportions. I thought she was totally out of my league, but we dated and fell in love and...

    Engineering Explained. This is bad.

    That is my take too, it’s underlying architectural issues especially with the car waking up / sleeping. A brute force way to do it is to just keep the computers on but then vampire drain. It’s not something you can just ask a coding agent to go find a bug on because it’s not just a logic /...

    Engineering Explained. This is bad.

    That’s fair, though personally I would weight experiences of 1) trusted parties 2) people without a commercial motivation I.e forum members over someone who has a commercial motivation to get views / stir the pot. I don’t watch this guys channel, but you have to always wonder how much of it...

    Engineering Explained. This is bad.

    For everyone spinning away and hand wringing at this video, as an owner, how does one influencers bad experience being documented affect your satisfaction with the vehicle? I.e. if you were dissatisfied before, does a YouTuber being dissatisfied make you even less satisfied? Re those who said...

    Canceled my Pure RWD reservation. No refund yet.

    Dunno, I think you are missing out. Don’t get me wrong, I had a lot of niggles with the first batch of air builds and a lot of service time, but now that everything is working I can’t think of any other car I’d want in the market. in general my life philosophy is you can always find a reason...

    Thought Experiment -> Would you trade pushing the envelope for a more baked product? Air / Gravity rollout pains

    Hey All, The challenges with execution in both the Air rollout and Gravity rollout have been heavily discussed here. While one might give a pass to Lucid on the Air, (First car, Covid, new company etc.) It happening on the Gravity is an unforced error (Or is it just a different POV?)...

    Gravity Touring deliveries starting next month?

    My 2016 model s 90d had 292 rated range new with basically the same pack size. I think Tesla and lucid use the same 5 cycle rating system so apples to apples. In 10 years time gained almost 10% efficiency on a bigger platform, which mean efficiency gain is actually probably more like 25%-30%...

    Suggestions for a Better Midsize Release

    They already know their launch / service challenges for sure. I asked their leadership about it at the SF Bay annual rally. (Mark / Eric). A big focus engineering wise is resolving root cause issues - e.g. not having components fail in the first place that require service. A focus on...

    Lucid Air aftermarket Hifi upgrade summary (and quality / configuration of the factory audio)

    Not really because it’s an upmixed atmos signal. You need the dsp / amp to properly process it from the media computer.

    560 Miles In - Black Screens

    If I were you, I would tell them the car does not feel safe to drive and ask for it to be towed to a service center and for them to provide a loaner / rental until the issue is fixed. I believe rear view cameras are a requirement nowadays for new vehicles, so that being inoperable is evidence...

    560 Miles In - Black Screens

    Out of curiosity - what about the hardware for the FOB? Undersized bluetooth transmitter on the fob? I had assume it had something to do with not managing the sleep state well and sleeping through the heartbeat pings.
