Gravity to be in “select” studios this spring

[JB67]

I called the Seattle studio this afternoon and asked when they would be getting the Gravity in the studio. The response given was that it will “come to select studios this coming spring”. Which interpret as “not in Seattle any time soon”.

That was the first time I had heard a semi-specific time frame for Gravity coming to studios. Nothing earth shattering but encouraging when combined with the photos that @Joe keeps finding and posting on the forum.

Has anyone heard anything similar?

So, nothing in showrooms before late March? (I know that sales people can be woefully ill-informed on Lucid products, but this sounds like an official company response someone has been directed to give to such inquiries.)

Any idea what "coming to select studios" means? A roped-off demo in the showroom? A car one can sit in? A car for test driving?

If, indeed, production is imminent, as Rawlinson said recently, how could it be spring before Gravities show up in showrooms, and then only in "select" ones?

I think it's been proven time and time again that studio sales folks often have no clue what's going on, and we usually have more knowledge of things than them. Given this, I put no stock in any answer they'd give regarding timing of Gravity.

Lucid said on their own website last week that cars will be showing up in studios early 2025.

Well “early” could mean the first 3 months of the year, and spring technically starts March 21st or 22nd….Eureka! The end of March must be it!!!!

Wait @hmp10 already said that….doh!

If it is in the showroom, and it is a production version, then they better let one at least sit in it!

My bet is they will be putting them in the locations that already have larger Lucid owner populations/high cost of living = high income, or near headquarters. I say this because multiple months ago I called the Vancouver, Canada location as that is the nearest location to Northwest Oregon to test drive. I was asking about test driving Gravity in the future.
The sales person’s response was that the Bay Area studio locations historically received the newest models first. (we were only discussing the West Coast)

I know, I know, don’t trust the sales person, but that makes sense to make it easier to keep an eye on a new model because the engineers are right there to troubleshoot any problems.
