I have a Lucid Air GT. I love this car, but unfortunately my experience with charging does not match yours, and honestly I think the concerns about the issues with non-Tesla Supercharger networks are completely valid.
Did my first long road trip on the Lucid from Austin to Galveston this weekend, distance of 240 mi. Here are the issues I had:
1. I averaged 2/3 the advertised range (64.2% to be exact). That wasn't really an issue - it's crazy hot in Texas right now, so the AC was on hard the whole way, and on the highway I averaged about 80 MPH (speed limit is 75, I'd say I was going slightly slower than most cars), and I rarely get more than 75% of the advertised range anyway.
2. I knew I wouldn't really be able to charge when I got to Galveston (staying at an Airbnb), so I stopped on the way at an Electrify America about 65 miles from my destination. Experience there was OK - when I plugged in, the power rating went wild - would cycle between like 30 kWh and 100 kWh - before settling at 120 kWh and then slowly going down to about 70 kWh (was a 150 kWh EA station). Apparently this is a known issue with this version of this EA station and Lucid. I charged about 75% full, didn't want to wait to fully charge it.
3. On the return trip I stopped at the same EA station, pulled in with 45 mi remaining. The EA charger recognized the car as a Lucid, but I kept getting "charger errors". I tried nearly all the chargers there, including the one that worked just 3 days prior. There was also a Level 2 charger there, and in desperation I plugged that one in. It said 5 kW in the Lucid but also said 0 mi/hr of addition - at this point I thought there was something wrong with the battery so I called Lucid. Other EVs charged successfully while I was there.
4. I called Lucid support (who was really, really fantastic BTW - shout-out to Josh in Houston), they had me try a bunch of resets but nothing worked. Lucid support told me there was an EVGo station just a couple miles away, so I drove there. One station was dead, but thankfully the other one worked and would charge about 42 kW. So we had a 2 hour lunch as it charged.
5. Continuing home, unfortunately we hit a ton of rush hour traffic in Houston, so we were sitting idle a lot of the time. We didn't want to chance it so we stopped at another EA outside of Austin. It was also rated at 150 kW, and we never got more than 73 kW.
I really, really want Lucid to succeed. This is by far the best car I've ever owned, but the charging network problems are not a figment of people's imagination. My relative owns a Tesla and he said the Supercharger network is a game changer - completely reliable, worst he's had was to have to wait a couple mins if all the stations were full.
