    Canceled my Pure RWD reservation. No refund yet.

    Update: It is now 4 months after I cancelled my reservation for a Pure RWD without DDpro, and without SSpro (i.e. a base model). In August I started getting calls and emails (now 2 of each) from Lucid asking me to come to Naples, FL, for a test drive of a Lucid Touring. It would be kind of tough...

    Canceled my Pure RWD reservation. No refund yet.

    I promised that I would follow up, so here you go; Today (six weeks and one day after I sent an email cancelling my order) I received an email stating that my "Lucid Air Pure cancellation is complete." No phone calls, no questions, no pressure. The details from the email state: Order Date...

    Canceled my Pure RWD reservation. No refund yet.

    Perhaps you missed this part of my original post, so I am adding bolding to help you: "I'm neither surprised, nor impressed. However, I will update this thread (assuming that this thread remains unlocked) if I receive an acknowledgement or a refund." I am NOT asking for a refund, but some...

    Canceled my Pure RWD reservation. No refund yet.

    In the hope that this helps others that may be in a similar situation; I placed an order, and $300 deposit, for a RWD pure on August 12, 2022 with the hope of qualifying for the $7500 tax credit. Per the Lucid email on August 11, 2022; "If you place your order before August 12th, you may still...

    Lucid Air Touring cancelled, purchased used GT

    I am about to cancel my "NON-REFUNDABLE DEPOSIT" RWD Pure order as well. I have received a voicemail that stated that the car is scheduled for July to September production. Interesting to see if I get a refund. Also - best of luck to you with the hip (my wife had hers done, and after recovery...

    It's been a really difficult decision

    I hate to break it to you, but no. The 10 year/150K miles warranty is ONLY applicable to PZEV (hybrids). https://ww2.arb.ca.gov/resources/fact-sheets/california-vehicle-and-emissions-warranty-periods There is an effort underway to change this, although the proposed changes wouldn’t take effect...

    It's been a really difficult decision

    Adding to your reasons: the G80 has a 10 year / 100K mile warranty on the battery and drive train, and it is backed by an established company. I believe that Lucid offers 8 years.

    Pure Standard Equipment

    Are you excited? I'm not. I am feeling quite the opposite really. I am open to ANY evidence that contradicts my assumption that AWD reduces range. However, with almost every other EV that offers both RWD & AWD, the RWD version of that EV has greater range. I see no reason why the Lucid would...

    Pure Standard Equipment

    Someone at Lucid KNOWS what the HP rating of the Pure RWD will be. They are supposedly using the same rear motor across all Lucid vehicles, except the Sapphire. All that Lucid is doing is de-rating the motor through software that runs on the wunderbox. Decreasing the horsepower will likely...

    Pure owner review

    The first Pures to roll off the assembly line (in 2022) were AWD with SSP and DDP (ie 'Loaded'). Less equipped Pures will start being produced throughout 2023 (and probably 2024).

    Pure Standard Equipment

    But the Pure RWD is not yet available for test drives, and neither is the Pure AWD. I have sat in a GT while I was in the Boston area. It was nice, but the Boston Studio did not offer test drives while I was there. I was presented with the opportunity to take a GT for a test drive, but it has so...

    Pure Standard Equipment

    Doubt all you want, but I am with @hanifjenkins on this. I am looking at another EV that is not yet available in the US. If I don't have more info from Lucid on the Pure RWD when it becomes available (probably Q2 of this year), I may be cancelling my reservation. I already know that the...

    Pure owner review

    Thank you AGAIN @noobzilla ! I am happy to learn that the Frunk has soft-close, and that the trunk is automatic close on the Pure. If I understand correctly, this means that you push the frunk lid down until it latches, and then the motors take over and close it all the way. Likewise, if I am...

    Ordering and Delivery: Lucid Air Pure

    Possibly in 2023. Sooner or later, depending on the options that you ordered. Also possibly in 2024.

    Uh, no. Lucid knows what horsepower the car will have, and they should have a pretty good handle on when they will be able to ship the car. Just as they know what they will be charging in USD for it.

    Pure Standard Equipment

    ^^^^ THANK YOU FOR THIS!!! ^^^^ It is unfathomable to me that Lucid has done such a poor job of setting expectations around the Pure. When will the Pure RDW ship? Lucid has not publicly made a commitment. What will the range be (approximately)? Lucid has not made this announcement. What will...

    Nio ET7 600+mi range for $71,000 (not in U.S.)

    I agree that the battery swap is a great idea. I have seen videos of NIO's other cars in a battery swap station getting a new fully charged battery in under 5 minutes. The concept of Battery As A Service (BAAS) has been floated (you own the car, but rent the battery), and I believe that it is...
