    Car Software Update cadence

    I am glad that your Air's software is acceptable, but, in my personal experience, it is not "just fine." I've had my Air for less than a week and have already had Mobile Key issues, PIN to Drive issues, doors that don't want to open, and a Homelink that will not program. That's even before we...

    Insane residual on a 2024 LAT @ 18 month lease: 86%

    I picked up my AT last week and see that the residual is 81% after my 18-month lease (that's MSRP to residual, not the capitalized cost. If you factor in the 7500, then it is an 86% residual). There is NO WAY that this car will be marketable for $69k with 18k miles on it, and no way that I...

    Lucid's Spotify implementation sucks.

    I look forward to trying this with Android Auto, as soon as Lucid gets around to enabling that feature.

    Lucid's Spotify implementation sucks.

    Pretty much the title. This is probably just useless shouting into the void, but I am amazed at how much the Spotify implementation on the Lucid Air stinks compared to Tesla's implementation. I thought I could search for an artist, then browse their albums, songs, and playlists. LOL. Not only...

    Considering purchasing a Lucid Grand Touring

    Couldn't agree more. I'm hoping the market is a bit more mature in 18 months. Hoping to see new EV models from Lucid (very curious about the midsize), Rivian, Polestar, Audi, and Genesis that will increase competition in the premium EV segment!

    Considering purchasing a Lucid Grand Touring

    I would argue that the customer's logic is sound, but maybe the Lucid financial strategy is set up for a challenge 18 to 36 months from now! I'm sure the very smart people at Lucid know that they are borrowing from future Peter to pay current Paul, or at least give current Paul some good news...

    Considering purchasing a Lucid Grand Touring

    It sounds like leasing is a great option to address this concern. While I think the Saudi backing makes it less likely that Lucid goes bankrupt, as a current Tesla owner I do pay keen attention to the EV market and resale values. My new Air lease says that my used Touring will be worth $69k...

    Exploring buying a new Lucid Air.

    FWIW, it looks like there is a very similar incentive for May. Still a $5k "onsite" discount, and promotional leasing prices. What changed is that the discounted lease price now cites a 36 month lease and not 18. I'm not sure if that means the 18-month lease deals are gone, modified, etc. I...

    Getting Android Auto into the Lucid

    I'd like a lot more info. Plenty of false alarms are possible when you have to grant communication permissions to the device. But certainly a concern and I appreciate you posting this!

    Getting Android Auto into the Lucid

    Did the less expensive device work for giving basic Android Auto functionality? I would prefer not to spend $200 if the $100 option works. All I want to do is have very basic app access on the car's screen - Waze, a podcast app, and Spotify (though I'm fine using Spotify through the car if the...

    "converting" tesla wall connector to Lucid Home Charging Station.

    Not sure where you are located, but in NJ this is consistent with what I've seen for a 14-50 installation. I paid about $600, but that was six years ago and I imagine the price has climbed a bit. Based on the excessive estimates you've gotten for replacing the wiring, I think the 14-50 outlet...

    Tips for Finding a Leasing Deal?

    Thanks, that would be great. I spoke to someone from the main sales office in California, but they haven't emailed me any of the details they said they would, and it's been a couple of days. Thank you for any info.

    Tips for Finding a Leasing Deal?

    Thanks very much. I'm hoping to get to a Studio on Monday to drive the car, but here in NJ they are not allowed to discuss pricing at the Studio because of some ridiculous regulation that I'm sure the IC car manufacturers lobbied to pass... Hopefully they can at least discuss the promotions.

    Tips for Finding a Leasing Deal?

    Hello! First post, so forgive any stupid questions. I'm in NJ and looking for a new EV. My wife offered to take my Tesla Model 3 and have me get the new car (score!), and the current 18 month lease deals have put the Lucid on the short list. I see that other have gotten Pures in the 500s/mo...
