Gravity vs Model X

[Batteryman]

You shouldn’t assume that the general public would choose Lucid when 99% of the public has no idea they even exist, and the prices exclude a huge majority of buyers. Tesla does no advertising but everyone knows about Tesla - and they sell millions of cars a year to people who aren’t fanboys or care about FSD. Lucid can be objectively better but if no one knows who they are except diehard Air owners then momo will be right. Tesla literally has the best selling vehicle of any kind in the world. I feel pretty attuned to EVs and I see absolutely zero about Lucid outside of this forum.

Agree, advertise….people will understand. Now that SUV is coming, this will add more traction. Only reason Rivian got popular was because it’s an SUV. Don’t forget, Lucid is also in Europe and Middle East.

Tesla got first mover advantage, Musk pumping his company helps, Tesla fanboys who made money on TSLA constantly hype it up as well…you can’t compete with that.

But the midsize will create significant buzz.

I dunno man, I know so many people with Teslas and Rivians. When I mention lucid, they all just tune out. No interest. They need to advertise a lot more and not just internet ads. Like I don’t know…Set up a deal with Costco, put the Gravity outside! Let everyone see it! Amazon started direct to consumer car sales with Hyundai. Put the Lucid up there. And so it early when there’s still hype and interest around it. Or put the lease deals on streaming services like Netflix, paramount, Amazon Prime... Or any number of things! The only ads I see are banners on ad filled internet sites.

FWIW, I saw a Lucid ad this morning during the Manchester Derby streaming on NBC. It was a short, 15 second one but it was the newer version.

About as much as the Gravity.

BTW - what's your thing with Tesla "fanboys"? What does that even mean? You do realize a TON of women drive Tesla's too right? In fact, the Model Y was the number 1 seeling VEHICLE in the world in 2023. I think Tesla is WAY past the fanboys stage - whatever that is.

I think fanboys would better describe those of us on the forum. 98% of people buying a Tesla don't own the stock, and have never posted on a Tesla forum.
