Meeting Peter and having open discussions about the challenges facing the Air at the time, he really impressed me as a person and was someone I respected which played a pivotal role in why I stuck with the brand through it woes.. His passion and expertise in engineering were undeniable. However, in the past 8 to 12 months, I began to doubt whether he was the right person to lead the company. Despite promising software improvements and upcoming features, significant progress has been lacking, and now we’re facing issues with Gravity’s release. As a CEO, you need to deliver results, and while I firmly believe Lucid has the best technology and engineering on the market, with Peter playing a crucial role, they’ve struggled to execute things efficiently. Recently, it’s felt like everything is talk without any tangible action.
It would have been beneficial if Peter had stayed in the CTO role or focused solely on engineering, allowing the CEO title to be given to someone else so it's a shame to see him step right back.
