A Bit of Perspective From a Long-ish Term Owner

To open the trunk, effectively it is a double click and hold after the second click. I got my Touring Dec '22. That function was available at that point. To open the Frunk - single click and hold.

Bobby so nicely documented the many incremental features that have been added via OTA updates. Is the car perfect? What car is? The car looks great, wonderful comfortable ride. OTA updates to continually enhance the product. I'd buy it again.

Zenith Red rocks!
 
Awesome list! my '25 AT that I got in Dec '24 is my second EV and you can tell how much has gone into it .. all of the work and updates are very evident. My list of 'improvements' is not a long one and they've already checked one off the list which is release the updated android app. One nit .. there's still not 'satellite' radio but there is sirius XM via internet stream🤣. Seriously, (no pun intended), I hope google and lucid adds a native youtube music app that can stream HQ directly to the car. My hope is that the new leadership can continue the path charted by the bold and brave to date .. the car is really excellent (and to add, at the current pricing is so good .. easy to recommend).
 
I guess this explains the lack of a satellite radio antenna. They did a software fix to stream satellite programming over the cell system. Hardly usable in some locations. Hopefully they will add the antenna for future vehicles.

I doubt they will.
 
Even though this is a late reply, having this list shows how much improvement the Lucid Air has made.

Thanks Bobby and with your permission to copy the list with a reference to you to be pinned in the Saudi owners club telegram group.

Haha 😂.

Mostly Saudi and UAE owners, but everyone is welcomed. The group also try to accommodate the Lucid Owners Club communications with $LCID.
 
Owner since Oct. 2022 with 40k miles and several cross country drives and despite the challenges we confronted the AirGT has been by far the best automobile that I have owned. Service has been responsive and effective. The OTAs and recent CCC upgrade have vastly improved the overall experience. Among the many upgrades noted by Bobby and Borski, to whom I am grateful for their very helpful contributions on this forum, the navigation system works quite well. Its routing around DC, Baltimore and Philadelphia on my recent trips north from VA was a welcome surprise. As a dog owner the Comfort Control is especially welcome. Of course there is room for further improvement and I am confident that Lucid will implement them on an effective basis. Yes, a sentry mode and a forward and rear camera feature with easy recording and access would be nice but I have little doubt that Lucid is aware of these.
 
Thanks Bobby (and others) for their lists of improvements. I've got about 40k on my AGT (coming up on 3 years!) and it was a good reminder of why (a) I love the car more than I did when it was brand new, and (b) why my trust in Lucid has been well-placed. Today, I'm waiting on delivery of a GGT, and reading through the forum about the myriad complaints that folks are having, I'm reminded of the how it's pretty much the same pattern repeating (again, and again, and again). I'd read stories about this or that not working, constant complaining about "Car-Play Tuesday (or whatever), lag times, boot up, fob batteries, motor whine, yadda yadda, but after these issues were resolved, things pretty much quieted down. Yes, it would be great if the car were perfect upon delivery, but at the same time, at this point, I can't think about anything I'd want to fix! And, as I keep telling my EV sceptic friends- the car is far better than it was when I got it. What ICE car can make the same claim?
I expect that my new Gravity will follow a similar path- there will be plenty of annoyances that will get amplified on the forum, and these will be resolved. Meanwhile, I'll be enjoying the privilege of driving the coolest cars in the world. Early adoption isn't for the faint of heart.
 
My 2024 AGT is awesome. They have upgraded so much in a year I am amazed. with over 500 miles of range, i no longer have the range anxiety I had with my Tesla. Dream Drive is working well and Hands free as well but not on as many roads as my 2019 Tesla. Best car I've ever driven and I hope the Grafity I will get in January is just as good.

29. There was no de-ice mode

30. There were no offline maps or offline nav

31. There was no way to open the trunk from the fob; now there is.

32. There was no rear pedestrian collision protection

33. There was no low beam cornering; this is one of my favorite features

34. There was no automatic headlight leveling

35. You couldn’t play music from a USB stick; now my FLACs sound better than any other source

36. Estimated range on arrival didn’t exist. Now it’s insanely accurate

37. The vehicle keyboard was only peck-typing. Now you can Swipe, use Handwriting and Predictive Text.

38. You now can control the volume at different levels for Phone, Media, Voice assistant, and Navigation, and mute Nav Lady. Good lord, so many threads about not wanting to hear from Nav Lady haha

39. There was no way to reset TPMS or specify your tire size without a service visit. God this was annoying, and I’m so glad they added it!

41. There was no way to turn *all* the lights off in the car (unless you installed Home Assistant, where the integration was more feature-rich than the Lucid-native app 😈)

42. There was no rear parking protection

What else?!

I was never happy with est range at arrival or simply est range period
But recently I’ve noticed I can get estimated battery remaining which I find far more useful if I can’t get a good range estimate real world measurements are that just simply using it as I wish I get 3m/kw but then I also have oversized 21’s 265 in front and 285 in the rear. Added by the previous owner
Trips to the UP and AZ went nicely and I don’t think I went too crazy when passing
