Gravity [Dream Edition] Reservations Tracker

[Zinzow24]

What is a pre-VIN? I've seen several references to one on the forum, but I don't know what it means.

Pre-VIN/Batch Assignment is the phase right before production per my SA.

I am still in the pre-vin/batch assigned stage, how long after did yalls VINs get assigned?

I was never at that stage (or entered and exited so fast I didn’t notice). Like many here, I ordered the minute Lucid started taking reservations on 7 November of last year, then upgraded to Dream Edition in Feb of this year. SA called to give me my VIN a couple of weeks ago (getting close to three weeks now) and confirmed that same day my vehicle status had changed to ‘In Production’. To date, the status remains unchanged. It’s still ‘In Production’. So I’d take the “one week” predictions with a huge grain of salt.

Caveat: I’m in California, and have heard there’s an additional small delay on deliveries here (possibly due to an unfinished regulatory process).

I've been in this pre-VIN status for at least a couple of weeks now. Doesn't seem to mean much for timeliness to build or even getting a VIN.

How do you find out if you're in pre-VIN status?

Talk to your Lucid SA.

Right. @hmp10 my SA proactively communicated hitting the “pre-VIN” stage and said it meant they were ordering all parts and putting it on the production schedule. VIN assigned when it actually starts production.

Asked my SA

Easier said than done. I've called or texted my SA no more than six times since he was first assigned to my order back on November 7, and for no more than a few minutes each time. Even then most of the contacts were about changing something about the orders. He knows I'm getting frustrated by no activity on the orders, but I have been very careful not to be sharp or to direct any irritation at him personally as I know this is beyond his control.

I texted him two days ago after our test drives to see if he could give me any update. I've heard nothing back. (I think he works weekends at the studio, as he texted me on Easter Sunday to ask me to confirm our order configurations.)

It's becoming pretty clear that our plans to take one of the Gravities on a summer road trip are likely off the table, despite ordering the day orders opened and upgrading to a DE the day those orders opened.

So I'm not going to try to contact my SA again and instead will just wait to hear from him or to see something on the Lucid website to tell me at least one of the orders has started moving.

I have recently upgraded to the DE with 21/22 all season tire option as I live in NY and need to deal with snow. Now that the 20/21 option is available, I am having a tough time deciding between 20/21 and 21/22 all seasons. If I choose the 20/21, would I be sacrificing better handling and taut ride towards better range with the 20/21s? I had the 19" range wheels on mt GT as they were the only all season option when I ordered mine in 2021/2022.
I would really like any input from people who had an opportunity to drive the Gravity.
Thanks in advance,

20/21 will handle snow better than 21/22..that's just simple physics
