I said "concerns about battery life," not that they actually had significant degradation. Reuters or someone just reported that used EV sales are starting to ramp up with the Iran war and the price of gasoline increasing dramatically.

Sure, but in Lucid's case I don't think hiring A-list directors and A-list actors to make commercials that turn off Lucid's primary market segment was a good investment. All the reviews that complained about software bugs hurt Gravity sales far more than Chalemet's Gravity stealing commercial...

EVs depreciate not because of software, which for many marques are applied to older vehices as well, but because of drivetrain improvements and concerns about battery life. New batteries better than old batteries, both in terms of original capacity as well as degradation.

So, what's Lucid's take on "hands-on" versus "hands-off?" For other OEMs, that has mean the difference between requiring the driver to apply some torque to the steering while while the system is engaged versus using an in-cabin camera to monitor driver attention. But, this seems to be...

I guess different people are built differently and/or think different things are comfortable. Don't forget, you don't get lumbar adjustment on Model 3/Y front passenger seats anymore. Back in 2020, one of the reasons we got a Model X over a Model Y was the seat comfort. Air suspension was...

I do sometimes miss my '66 Jag E-Type, but every car I've owned since has needed more than mechanicals to make it right.

Has about as much effect as knocking on wood, amiright?

Software development is car development. And there's still Dream Drive Pro to improve. Needs vast improvements. Besides, I doubt Earth is fully done now anyway.

I keep wondering what the money they're paying Chalemet would do in pointed at actual car development....

Today is Wed, Mar11. I bet I won't get the update before this upcoming Monday....

https://newsroom.porsche.com/en_US/2026/products/porsche-the-new-cayenne-s-electric-41867.html All have the same 113kWh (108 usuable() battery. None of them have EPA ratings yet. Cheapest one starts at $109K, top of the line "Turbo" 🤪 model starts at $163k but can easily go over $200k.

Agree that Gravity's build quality is far better than Model X's. However, tbf, the Model Y's build quality is better than the Model X's as well. Our Gravity is squeak free. We hardly ever move the second row seats, though. I'd give it a B+ in terms of panel gaps, but then I'm pretty picky...

Based on 3.4.1, I've got 10 days to wait....

Well, you can't expect a huge amount of details in one presentation, especially since many of those details would be considered company confidential. Elon said that 10 Billion miles (not hours) were needed, and he's apparently talking about seeing enough real-world scenarios to not get tripped...

I wish. Having that feature on my Tesla saved me thousands of dollars.

Happens about a minute in.

Discussed with the CEO here:

I watched this when it first came out a couple/few weeks ago: 1) Swisher is annoying inserting her politics into everything, even cutting RJ off to do so. 2) RJ never took the bait, which was great. 3) RJ's view on Chinese competition was great and insightful. It will be interesting to see what...

I came here just to ask this question. Makes the 110 outlet preferable, but even so having to turn that option on after every start is tiring on a road trip and means you can't valet the car and keep things running.
