    Engineering Explained. This is bad.

    I hope you are wrong. But if this indeed is the case, Lucid cannot re-organize incompetence away. They need to eliminate the weak links. Not hard to find. You will find them in Lucid’s Confluence and Jira.

    Engineering Explained. This is bad.

    To be fair regarding Gravity: Peter said 2025 and into 2026 is a “ramp up” period. Grok’s definition of “ramp up” is “slowly increase daily output while fixing quality issues, supply-chain bottlenecks, and worker training”. —————- Peter comments: Lucid’s production strategy for Gravity will...

    Engineering Explained. This is bad.

    Per Bob Lutz in his recently posted interview, U.S. automakers need to catch up to China’s ability to develop new models within 24 months; in the U.S., the process typically takes about 36 months.

    Alternatives to the Lucid Air

    It’s the same reason why highly talented college basketball and football players are compared to Jayson Tatum and Patrick Mahomes, respectively. “The overnight success you see took 10 years in the dark.”

    Fabulous SUV BUT…………

    8 million Tesla vehicles have been sold without having key fobs. This is a leadership issue. Lucid must decide whether it wants to be a technology company that monetizes its innovations or a car company that focuses on selling vehicles. The distinction matters, and the right leaders must...

    Motortrend | Lucid Gravity vs. Cadillac and Volvo for EV SUV Supremacy: Only One Is Truly Ready for Prime Time

    No way, bro! It totally reminds me of that wild love-hate thing Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton had going on—in The Taming of the Shrew and in real life too. Pure drama, but kind of fun to watch.

    My CliffsNote : If we can equate the cars to the current NBA players, Volvo is the current 62 year old Michael Jordan. Vistiq is the Michael when he was playing in the NBA.
