    Front Driver’s Side Door Jingle (or jangle)at 70-80 mph

    Has anyone else noticed an intermittent faint jingle coming from the driver’s door area when at speeds over 70. This is making me nuts. When it happens, the jingle is very faint sounding, and it comes from inside the door (I think). It is the sound you would hear if a bolt wasn’t tight enough...

    Heating and seating quirks, according to the service technician

    Thanks to some help from @TakeDuo, I recently had a service technician out to my house to clear up the few punch list items from a December vehicle delivery. I had practically nothing wrong with the car, but for a few questions and two easily corrected trim items. One question I had was about...

    Nice KTLA 5 Segment on Lucid

    One of LA's local news channels, KTLA 5, did a nice segment on the AT. The reporter was very complimentary of the acceleration, among other things. https://ktla.com/morning-news/lucid-air-touring-ev-test-drive-california/

    A Road Trip, Some Observations, and Questions

    I was happy to take the AT on its first road trip to Vegas last weekend. We left Anaheim Hills with 350mi on the indicator. Initially, the navigator said I would make Vegas with ~90 miles left (Anaheim Hills to Vegas is 256 mi.). By the time I hit Baker (about 2/3rds of the way to Vegas), the...

    What does this even mean??

    New Touring and never charged at a public charger. How do I interpret this? Are there four chargers or 16? What is ChaDeMo and should I use it? If all stalls are open, should I use the 350kW? Thanks. [Electrify America] Operated by Electrify America CCS, 4 stalls, 350kW CCS, 5 stalls, 150kW...

    Heads up--Lucid Stock is on a Mad Run

    As of 1052 today, Lucid has about doubled from the day low (it is at almost $18) Just pointing it out in case someone was looking to jump out. I'm staying put, but what a pleasure to see it run up and not down.

    Route Planning/Charging Advice

    I have only put about 90 miles on my Touring, and I am still learning the various functions. I have friends with Teslas who tell me that when they plan a trip, the car knows when it will need a charge and suggests a charging station along the route. Does the Lucid do this? If so, is it in the...

    PPF Advice Please

    I got a PPF quote from a reliable shop (they did a friends car, long time in business, 5-star Google), and the manager made a comment about putting ppf on the hood. He said that the way the lines on the hood are may result in a seam line and potential hairline gap at a couple of the ridges on...

    Can I Make it to Vegas?

    Going to shoot for Vegas from Laguna Beach. It is about 270 miles. I can max charge my Touring with 20 inch tires to about 385. I have not gone more that about 30 RT in my Touring so far, and I am wondering if the car will make the run 270 miles without a stop. I drive 75-ish. It's cool...

    Early Driving Experience--I Probably Looked Like a Teen Driver

    Posting because some of you might find my experience familiar and get a grin. I have had my Touring for two weeks. I have taken i out on some limited runs in between the rain that has hit So. Cal. I swear this car is too smart. I have played with the different settings, and I am trying to...

    Touring Delivery and Initial Impressions

    Hi, all. Posting this for whatever it might be worth to the community. My advisor called me on 12/31/2022 and said he had a Touring for me. I had previously canceled my old Touring order and kept my Air order because the 2022 Touring deliveries HAD to come with bubble top, DDP, and SSP…..none...

    First EA Charging Experience (sort of)

    I see this has been discussed, but I’m posting for those in So. Orange County. I went to the EA location at the Irvine Spectrum today for my first ever public charge. Only two out of six stations were working. There were people waiting and general irritation. Sounds like the EA thing is a...

    Spend 16k to save $7,500

    Heads up-Contrary to the original Lucid statement, one has to complete the Lucid purchase in 2022 to get the $7,500 tax credit. Complicating the matter is the fact that if you are buying a Touring model (like I planned), you MUST get it loaded (if you want it in time for the tax credit). The...

    [Resolved] Brake release on hills, slopes, and inclines

    Hi, all. I have a reservation on an Air Touring. One of the Lucid staff brought a GT to my house for me to test drive, and I had a really weird experience. My driveway is long-ish and pretty steep. When backing the GT out of this steep driveway, I stopped midway to check street...
