2024 Massage Seats Pure/Touring & Leather Interior???

[CoasterNerd]

First of all, it's beyond frustrating that there is no complete list of all standard and optional features/equipment at each trim level on Lucid's website. I can look through brochures for cars from 50 years ago and see clearly see what features and packages are standard and optional at each trim level. But here we are in 2023 and we're supposed to order six figure luxury cars online without a complete list of what the hell it comes with? I really do not want to order car and assume it comes with a particular feature only to find out upon delivery that it doesn't.

My specific question is this:

At the Pure or Touring trim levels, it appears that it's possible to configure the interior in the following ways:

1. Mojave PurLux with 12-way heated seats (standard)
2. Mojave PurLux with 20-way heated, ventilated, and massaging seats (optional)
3. Leather with 14 way-heated and ventilated seats (optional)

There is no mention of the massaging function with the 14 way leather seats. I find this confusing. Is the only way to get massaging seats in the Pure or Touring trim to get the standard PurLux leather alternative with the 20-way seat option? Is it really not possible to get massaging seats with the optional leather interior in the Pure or Touring trim?

I have a GT loaner right now, and the material on the sides of the seat and the door sills and behind the alcantara/premium leather on the upper dash are not nappa leather. But they are the same exact material as the Touring. Those areas are not as supple as the seats themselves, so I'm pretty confident it's not nappa. It could be pureluxe like you suggest

But Unless someone can prove otherwise, the ONLY difference between GT and Touring i've been able to find is the alcantara vs premium leather in the door cards and upper dash

I doubt it's Purluxe because that doesn't show up anywhere except in the Pure

Awful lot of speculation here with zero evidence. Probably best to stick with what we actually know.

Does anyone actually prefer alcantara to premium leather?

The change is very nice and visually appealing

I think it is a nice change in areas that don't get a lot of wear (like the headliner). But on seats, steering wheel, etc. I prefer nappa leather.

I quite like alcantara. For example, I prefer the feel of the sapphire steering wheel over my DE steering wheel.

I also love the metal roof alcanatara interior lining. So it depends on where it’s used, but generally I like it a lot.

I know it's an older thread but from my understanding the difference between the leather and extended leather isn't the obvious Alcantara in the GT but that all parts of the seats, headrests, etc. are covered in leather. Also the non-Alcantara door panel sections.
On the Touring, only the seating surfaces are leather, not the whole seats. Same for the headrests. Door panel uppers are not leather either, just the centers. So I am assuming this is either some pure-lux type artificial leather.

Also, could anyone confirm that the Touring steering wheel airbag is leather like the GT? It appears that the Pure one is rubber...

We originally ordered a GT but now ordered a Touring. Am truly puzzled that the massage seat option is not available on any leather Touring interiors other than the base Pure Lux , as of mid Feb.24

You should sit in the different seating permutations and see which is more comfortable for you. When we were shopping we actually found the Purluxe to be softer and more comfortable and visually we had a hard time telling it wasn’t actually leather. So for us it was a win win to go with the Purluxe.

The issue for that has been the distance to the nearest Lucid store.
We are currently driving a BMW iX with Sensatec which is likely very similar to the Purluxe but I just don't like a black interior. The car is quantum gray/stealth so I appreciate a bit of color...

I am hoping the 14. pos. seating is comfortable as this is the only choice

It’s the same on the GT. I compared the two at length, the “soft” material on the upper door panels, upper dash, and sides of the seat are the same on touring and GT

Yeah its not extended leather, its more like decreased leather with the alcantara accents
