Bought a used 2023. Any upgrades/retrofits?

Air Touring '23 & '24
Hello -

Like the title said, I recently purchased a 2023 Touring. I have a 2024 Touring lease that I like so much I bought the '23 to replace it. I have noticed just a couple of changes, such as the sub-trunk cover not having the retaining latches to keep it in place. Does anyone know of a list of year-to-year changes (I have tried searching and not found one) and whether there are any "upgrades" that Lucid will perform (for a fee)?

Thanks!

Thanks! That's what got me thinking about the process. The UI seems ok for now, so I probably won't upgrade the CCC yet, but maybe there are other items. So far, the motor mounts (cuts down on motor noise, apparently) seem to have changed but are not available as an upgrade, and the trunk lid

The '24 model year was the first year that Lucid switched to heat pumps on all models.

The '23s built late in 2023 have the last CCCv1 iteration, which is not much slower than CCCv2.

Based on my research and verification from multiple sources, the cccv2 is the only upgrade you can get on a 2023.

The heat pump was released on the Sapphire in the '24 model year and only the Grand Turing in April of '24. The Touring and Pure received the heat pump in '25 along with the upgraded motor mounts for the front motor. The '26 model year has an AC upgrade. None of those are upgradeable from the dealer. There is no service manual or software programming utility.

There is an unofficial Python API and home assistant integration. Both provide more information than the app.

Where might the Python API and HA integration items be found?
