Sorry to hear of your problems - I suggest you test drive a BMW I-4 its an absolutely beautiful car - quick, sleek and typical BMW Luxury interior plus there are dealers and parts in every major city. I presently own a I4 and was looking at a Lucid as a 2nd car but right now there is too much...

Hello the car is absolutely beautiful love the way the two-tone sets the car off. Would you have a build sheet on the car and MSRP. Thanks Mike

I'm in the same situation - I found two cars of interest but the lack of suggested range, the amount of Lucid cars in the used market and so many protential owners cancelling there Lucid reservations, I think I'll hold off for now. Making matters worse is Elon casting an evil spell that Lucid...

Hello and thanks for the reply - There is no click bait, it's my personal non sponcered web site there is no advertising I have nothing to sell. I have never accepted one dime nor one item from a manufacture, I pay just like everyone does. All my writing are only in place to help EV and RV...

Sorry a few guys were discussing Porsche Taycans so I thought it would be of interest - Mike

MSH2 Hello great piece on your ride, thanks for sharing. I'm looking at a few Lucid's now for ownership as well. Looks like the company is fairly responsible. Enjoy your ride - Mike

AZ - same thing here, I transferred my Taycan deposit to a beautiful Porsche Panamera Hybrid, I loved the car, great power, build quality and interior. She was a plug-in with a 14.1 kwh pack so you can travel around 35 miles all electric enough for me to get to town and back. When the battery...

Regretfully all the wonderful electric pickups which was going to change the way we all work, fell flat on their face. After dealers tacking on 20-40k over MSRP they can give them away now. Nearly every one sold has gone back for gas powered trucks. All the projected range hype was just a...

Hello Guys - I've been considering adding a Lucid to my EV fleet for over a year now but before pulling the trigger I wanted to give the car some time to see how they hold up in real life situations. Lately its un-nerving to see how many owners are dumping their Lucids for either problems or...

Thanks for the replies - It was hard deciding between the I5 and EV6, they are both great cars. I only put the clip up just to show short trips result in higher range. I replicate this trip almost every day, its totally flat and we drive non-stop 40 mph the speed limit. This car averages 4-4.5...

Thanks for the reply - Looks good, since you were around an airport I assume it was stop and go traffic why you ended up in the 4's. Most of my friends who have a Lucid are averaging the low 3’s or 2’s with normal driving. If your looking for an EV with range my wife’s RWD EV-6 is almost...

Hey Guys - Yes short trips conserve range, here's our daily trip average around 32 miles in the 40 degree temperature, what's strange is our BMW I4 rarely sees 3.7 on the same exact trip. On other matters - I'm presently considering a Lucid which is why I joined the forum. I joined this tread...

Hey guys I wanted to add that BMW offers simuliar precondition features as well, such as setting departure heating of the battery and in route heating as well. On some models they have a tile on the dash (below) to manually select heating or cooling of the battery for DC charging. While I charge...

Hello I'm sure Lucid will add a number of features OTA in due time. BMW offers simuliar precondition features as well such as setting departure heating of the battery and in route heating as well. On some models they have a tile on the dash to manually select heating or cooling the battery for...

Thanks so much for the most part BMW shows a conservative range! LOL Of course that 400 miles you calculated is not going to happen with normal driving - I've seem mine do the same exact thing, all of a sudden 40- 50 miles of range instantly disappears then the range reads somewwhat normal...

Great Thread Guys - Generally speaking, it does not matter how many short trips you make verses a long trip. Since short trips normally occur at lower average speeds, you'll actually have increased range, where most long trips include major highway driving, where you are forced to travel at a...

Thanks for the reply - Curious what your I-4 displays for range for winter and then for summer? Thanks

Hello Guys - For home charging if you retained your power plug (110 or 220) you can protect your car from power spikes, line surges and more importantly lighting using an RV surge protector. If the power is too low or too high or spikes it instantly disconnects the power until the line is stable...

As we all know Winter driving can take 20-30% from your range. This is due to reduced cell capacity, denser air and interior heat use. I'm not familiar with Lucid battery management, they might include heating the battery in frigid temperatures which is a constant 6kw draw for up to 30 minutes...

Almost impossible to compare the two cars - it would be like comparing a BMW I-3 which is carbon fiber to a full size BMW I-4. While you might occasion see high 3's or 4, the car is going to deliver around 3.5 on an average if you baby it. There's no magic in the Lucid it's just like a Benz or...
