That's a good point about low profile tires. They didn't say which tires they had on the car, but I guess the standard tire is a low profile on the AGT?Umm...... I've hit potholes and like any car with low profile tires you hear and feel it more. The Lucid is no different than any other car i've hit potholes with on low profiles.
I actually like the motor whine but do agree with them on visibility, takes a little getting used to.
This was not their typical full assessment since they said they had only ‘rented’ the car from Lucid. They will usually buy a car for evaluation as would a typical consumer. That’s why they called it a ‘first impression’.
Still, factual reporting, even as a first impression is important.
I have the 19" for range and ride. My Air handles potholes just fine.
Agree about the whine but is is louder than a Tesla. It's only at slow speeds though.
I agree. I assume, although I’m not making excuses for them, it was a lack of time with the car that resulted in their errors.
so I had to tell her it was the motor whine
the engine whine. It makes me feel like steering a hovercraft in one of planets in StarTrek.The standard is the 21s low profile tire. That seems to be what is in the picture. I have the 19s and they are fine with NY roads and potholes
CR often only does these first impressions on very expensive cars and then does NOT purchase the cars for a full review. Too expensive for the number of CR members who might buy such a car. I am a CR member but I suspect that CR will not do a full review of the Lucid. If they do...it will likely be a Pure.
Yup, but I do believe they will eventually buy the Pure since they have bought & tested cars pricier than the Pure.
I truly
