Gravity Delivery Day Checklist

[Kevmark58]

I have the same and did nothing in the Tesla app. It’s plug and charge so you just plug it in.

Now, if you want the discount because of Tesla’s subscription, then you can go into the Tesla app, hit the hamburger menu in upper right, then “charging” and you can click on “vehicle details” and add your Gravity and its info. But then you must use the Tesla app to initiate charging and toggle it off/cancel in the Lucid app. I don’t have the Tesla subscription so haven’t tried that.

I just did that, and thanks for sharing that process. I noticed if you want 'reduced' charging rates, it's $12.99 a month. Not sure how many cents per Kwh that saves so will have to see. The car rarely uses the Superchargers unless we drive across the country and that's only a few times a year.
Also a few times a month within the state of Michigan, so probably not a deal to spend on.

Agreed. Doesn’t make sense for me. The cool part is you can subscribe for just a month if you need it and it’s easy to do the math to see if it works. EA and other plans offer this per month.

Then I may do that once in a while. I bought FSD when we do cross country and it helps with lane changing, etc.

Excellent list.

Is there a way to confirm the car works at a Tesla supercharger prior to delivery ?

Use this as a guide at tesla chargers.

Also, you have a 2nd step in the phone app to select the charging station, 1a, 1b, 1c...2a,2b ..or so on. Then hit confirm and pay button

So, with the Gravity I thought it was simply just plug and play?

I have an Air.....(my DE is in production now) only level 3 tesla chargers work. I tried a level 2...didn't work. I sent a msg to my SA and he sent me the chart. Went to level 3 and worked.
Can any Gravity folks let us know if it's plug and play at tesla chargers?

Tesla superchargers have been plug and play for me (on 3.2.2).

Yes. Tesla and EA are plug and charge for Gravity. Har to have a credit card in your Lucid profile, but it was all set up when I got my car and has been super smooth and quick.

 

[borski]

It is plug and charge for my air as well.

They resolved this it took about an hour and a half. So far so good. This car is a Damn rocket ship. Coming from a 590 HP Maserati levante trofeo this feels massively faster.

At delivery I only got one keyfob and 2 cards. Anyone else with this as well? Or did most others get 2 fobs. 2nd Fob to be coming soon...

1 fob… 2nd on due bill along with Frunk seat cushion… yes it is a rocket ship…

I'm picking up my car tomorrow. Created a Microsoft Word doc (and PDF) with many inspection items. There are no items for 3rd row, since I'm getting 5 seater. Last section with car images taken from manual I'm planning to use to mark any issues found in the exterior. Mark in circle problematic area, assign a number and add a description in the table below.

Feel free to download, edit, maybe converting it to Google doc and re-sharing with others from Google Docs. I probably went overboard a bit. I apologize for any mistakes in the document. I hope someone will find it useful.

Thanks for a very, very nice list.
I for sure will use it.
Much appreciated.
No problem with the download.

I recently picked up my car. Because of quarter push the time was limited, so I couldn't test everything on the list.
Additionally, you won't be able to use built in TPMS to verify the tire pressures. It only shows pressure after driving for a while at 18+ mph. So either you have to skip those items or bring your own tool to check that.
And the car was in the building, so I gave up on testing stuff like horn. I didn't want anyone to have a heart attack.

Here is a part in the manual (12.1.1 - en-US: Tire Pressure Monitoring System, page 258) that mentions when TPMS activates:

That’s true of any TPMS. If it’s showing any pressures without driving, they are cached from the last time it was driven.

Use this as a guide at tesla chargers.

Another way to tell is the maximum charge rate displayed on the stall. If it says "250KW" then it's a V3.

BUT, note that not all V3 or even V4 chargers are open for non-Tesla charging. Tesla has reserved some "congested" sites for Teslas only. Examples are:

https://www.tesla.com/findus/location/supercharger/montereysupercharger

https://www.tesla.com/findus/location/supercharger/sanluisobisposupercharger

https://www.tesla.com/findus/location/supercharger/bigsurcasupercharger

When you visit the Tesla page for the SuperCharger, if it doesn't show "Price for non-Tesla" then it doesn't support non-Teslas.

Very helpful thread , will definetely use this list some time in December,when my Stellar White GGT arrives.
Does anyone know if it comes with some free charging at EA or other networks? Audi or Kia used to give 3 year or 1000kwh of EA DC fast charging ,wonder if Lucid does something similar.

Not with the Gravity. They had three years of free EA charging on the Air but stopped that at the beginning of this year IIRC.

Apologize for that. I always share stuff with expiration date. This one expired on November 30th. I removed the expiration date on the old link so it should be working now.
