Gravity test drives?

Hmm...that seems fast. Are you hearing production only takes 10 days? I keep hearing more like 20-23 days to get fully through and ready for delivery. I'd love it if you were right, though. lol

It doesn’t feel like they’re building DEs right now, but I hope that timeline and build speed is right. They’re clearly incentivized to deliver as much as possible by end of Q3!

It could be supply chain issues (HUD and DDP hardware) as if they can’t build fully loaded DE’s, will build down spec GGT’s for now. I think we will be able to gauge when the supply chain issues are resolved when they start delivering fully loaded GGT’s (like mine.)

Talking to my SA yesterday, it sounds like Lucid is not building DEs right now and won't resume production until end of August or later. He suggested not to expect delivery of those DEs until October sometime. I have to assume it is due to a parts shortage (HUD?).
I originally ordered a loaded GGT on April 17th, switched to DE on May 19th after they pushed GGTs with HUDs to "fall" and then switched to an orphan (everything but tech/power, AG, Tahoe, 21/22) on June 20th as I had a road trip planned for this first week of August and was assured I'd have the orphan in time but would not get the DE in time. The orphan was in production back on June 20th and is still in production now (stuck in "general assembly" stage) with no ETA as to when it may get out of production. Given that the orphan seems to be stuck in production, I asked my SA about DE timing and that is when he gave me the above information and said he'd try to get me more info on the status of the orphan. I'm waiting to hear back on the more info.

Interesting and not surprising, if true.

This is also why, when I switched to an inventory car, I only did so knowing it was literally in transit. I didn’t trust the “almost done” ones…of course, it could be in transit for a while and it could fail PDI. Who knows…

Speaking of available Gravity, the SA told me they have two Gravity that were not claimed by the people who ordered them. So if either has the colors, interiors, and equipment you are looking for and KOP (north of Philly) isn't too far away, you may want to give them a call.

I've changed my order to Titanium, so I'll be watching everyone else's delivery for a while.

I ordered Titanium, believing that it had a bluish hue, but the sample at the local studio looked silver. Since we have a silver EV, I just switched to bronze, so I’ll be waiting with you.

The car is scheduled to start the 'build' process Sept 1 and finish the 'build' process on Sept 10. Once it leaves the factory, a number of tests, QA/PDI/etc must be accomplished. I am also expecting sometime the end of October - given the build start and finish. This is what was told to be from the manager that looked at by order. However, as long as before snow sets in, I am good!
