    Future direction of the forum

    There should be a category called 'feature clarification' on the forum. Sadly, that is where things are at with Lucid's communication. That would alleviate many of the post about cancelling & why etc (which are generally either 'late to deliver' or 'I have questions about XYZ feature and am...

    Enthusiast Canceling after the Launch event - in Depth Reasons/discrepancies noted

    Regardless of what Mercedes or BMW do for L2 or L3 system up charges, it’s quite simply that the Lucid or NVIDIA relevant fleet is not large/high value enough engineering wise as a percent of the population to realistically deliver lane keeping /L2 for non LiDAR systems. As @Grnr92663 noted...

    Lucid refunds the 'non refundable deposit" from August for the tax credit if you note the highway assist changes for Dreamdrive non-Pro As to the arguments about functionality, as some note, they are really dependent on NVIDIA here. Suggest reading this wiki on the various platforms. It...

    OP here. The point of this original post was to spur exactly this discussion. I don’t feel entitled to Highway assist or such. I just want Lucid to be honest, transparent, and consistent, and I do not feel they were so regarding Highway Assist in Dreamdrive non-pro. Simple as that. And yes...

    Also one of these questions was answered in the Reddit AMA from Derrick Jenkins. The RWD Pure has less than 480 horsepower, and is slower than 3.8second 0-60mph. Nice to see they are taking feedback and questions & answer. He did leave the (many) questions on Highway Assist in Dream Drive...

    I agree 100% with this, though I haven't seen the study. I and my wife are in this age bracket (30's), both tech employees, and see it exactly this way regarding highway assist level 2 autonomy as important in our demographic, though it's just anecdotal to our social group I suppose, I didn't...

    Highway assist is Level 2, not Level 3 is what I was referring to. I think customers value level 2 driving assist (like basic Tesla Autopilot). I agree with your points on Level 3 not being necessary/relevant today for the most part.

    To some of the earlier comments on horsepower testing & validation still ongoing with Lucid as an excuse as to why they have not released the Pure RWD HP final number, be in 480HP, 479HP as some poked fun at (made me chuckle a bit, yes I am pedantic), etc. To lay out the argument, the battery...

    Flaming @rbbarry for his coverage was not my intention here, I thought he did alot to build interest in the brand, and not just shilling the stock, but truly as an enthusiast. My point was more that if you look at his thread in that screenshot, he clearly says 'I recieve 3 responses for maybe...

    Lucid Launch Event

    Wind has nothing to do with horsepower output by the vehicle to the wheel, or for that matter battery pack output (amperage). If you believe it does, please explain why dynos are done without wind.

    Lucid Launch Event

    Yes, that is true, I understand the relationship between voltage and available power.. My point is, please show me 1 car where the manufacturer rates horsepower on their website as "horsepower at 80% charge, or horsepower at 90% charge". I have found zero, so lucid using the 'up to' argument...

    Lucid Launch Event

    No, I said it is 450hp. I know the HP to kw equivalent calculation. My point is there is no way a back that outputs the kind of average for a 620hp Touring suddenly cannot do it for a RWD single motor pure if it is the same config of modules, or very similar. So the argument made by borski is...

    Lucid Launch Event

    Wrong; following that logic it would say it for every horsepower rating for all variants. If you are referring to maximum amperage output by a given battery configuration (for example, 88 kw or 92kw), then maybe. Yes I know it varies by charge level, show me one other example of an EV...

    I hope that @hitmanray is correct, that DD standard will eventually have some version of highway assist. I too believe this will be the case at some point, but I cannot buy a car where the sales rep sales a definitive 'no' today. The reason I posted any of this is that after years of waiting...

    I agree with many of the points above about the tech being nearly outdated by the time things such as 'Level 3/4 driving using Lidar' is out. At minimum, the processors in the vehicle. In the end I just wish Lucid would say "hey we tried to do highway assist without Lidar and just haven't...

    As a longtime follower of this forum, I wanted to share that I have decided to cancel my Touring & Pure reservations. I post this here so Lucid sees it, as I have several friends & family who reserved Lucid's at my recommendation given I am die-hard car, EV, and tech enthusiast, and I am...

    Battery Sizes - New information for Pure AWD / RWD

    The Dream edition and Grand Touring (non performance) supposedly have the same number of modules (22), but a 5kWh difference in rating.. Just pointing out this would make it seem modules kWh density is not always the same.

    Battery Sizes - New information for Pure AWD / RWD

    I just spoke with Lucid while tweaking my order and they mentioned they just have updated battery specs for the various models, see below. I questioned the number of modules and kW for the RWD Pure; they checked again and said below is what it says. The 16 modules I had never heard of, but...
