Anyone with this issue have a resolution? Still happening to me every charging session. And temps finally cooling a bit here.
Same! Was hoping it would be part of the “robustness” lol. Curious, what are you charging with at home? Have you tried DC fast charging to see if car exhibits same behavior?Was hoping this was something that was magically addressed in 2.8.4 but still happening to me as well. I've asked again for service to look at the issue again.
Yep, that’s the precise issue.Was not fixed in 2.8.4. Charging now at high speed since it failed to charge last night and we need a charge. However, the 80 amp speed only lasted for 45’ and it has been charging at 7 kW ever since. What gives? No point on having an 80 amp Lucid charger if it can’t charge consistently at 80 amps when you want it to.
This, and the user experience for me on the app to even initiate a charge. Wait for the car to "wake up" then have it start charging. Once "charging stopped" appears, it takes a while via the app to re-initiate a charging session. For me, this is the most annoying issue I'm having with the car but it sounds like it's software. I'm probably going to schedule service just to get the vehicle in the system and documented as having this issue. Maybe more of us having that official input will push the team to look into this further.Was not fixed in 2.8.4. Charging now at high speed since it failed to charge last night and we need a charge.

OK you asked for it you got it.Yep, that’s the precise issue.
It’s the car. I have this problem, and my gravity charges fine on our LCHCS; but the Air, recently, charges at half speed after a little while.OK you asked for it you got it.
Here is a graph of the my 2025 AGT charging from about 17% to 80%. As you can see it took a total of 4.5 hours with all but 15 minutes (at the end of the charging) at 76 to 81 amps! In the last 15 minutes the charging dropped to 55 amps.
This is using the Autel 80 amp Maxi Charger. My car does not have the software upgrade yet and is still running 2.8.0. Temperature in the garage was low 90s during the charge.
So, assuming you have the same software, I dont know how the slow charging could be anything but the charger you are using.

Same issue I have with my LCHCS at home. My Gravity charges fine. It’s the car.@Bill AGT Wish I could blame it on the charger. I have a bank of 10 EV Connect L2 chargers at my YMCA and I have the same thing happening on at least 5 of the chargers there. I'll get 16 kW for anywhere from 15-30 minutes and then 6 kW. If I move to a different charger - I'll see the same. I took the car to the Natick service center and they saw the same on their L2 charger. They also noticed the same on a loaner they had there. They had engineer monitoring the car and said the car was requesting full charge - so I don't know. I didn't realize others had this issue or I would have pressed. Here's a sample of a session.View attachment 32624
Graph is from Teslalogger-get some cool stats from it. I have a juicebox 40 at home which didn't seem to have an issue but it at a lower output.Seems like if the car is requesting full charge and it is not getting it, the charger is at fault. Is that graph from the service center? I assume the service center engineer (Lucid Engineer?) knows more than I do.
Would love to see what would happen if it were plugged into a charger like mine.
Very curious -
I have flagged this with the team.Same issue I have with my LCHCS at home. My Gravity charges fine. It’s the car.
@marqie I’m happy to be a guinea pig for this one since I can reproduce it trivially in my garage; is there any way to get this looked at internally? It’s affecting a lot of people, myself included, and it’s been months; we’ve narrowed the issue down to the vehicle, not the EVSE.
Thank you and thanks @borski for tagging. The need only review this thread to start and it will bring them up to speed.I have flagged this with the team.
Was this through service or through customer care? I should get that process started.When Lucid finally replaced my LCHCS... that fixed my issue. It would go 18kw for the 1st 15 - 45 minutes, and then drop to 7kw - 8kw for the remaining time. Took them 5 months before they said to replace the charger. Now i consistenly stay at 18kw... and as low as 16kw.
My only issue is when they changed my battery recently, they gave me a battery that had less mileage at 80%... 370 down to 355 and won't charge faster than 69 miles/hr when it used to do 80mi/hr.
