Leasing Gravity

[JeffZebry]

Hi everyone,
I test drove a Gravity GT over the weekend and was pleasantly surprised with the quality and driving experience and was looking to lease one but the current incentives are pretty stale for both the touring and grand touring it seems like. Is there reason to believe that next month will have better incentives or even December since it's the end of the year? Also from what I read Lucid does not negotiate with prices but is there anything I can do with my advisor to get a better deal? Thanks for the help!

End of year has been a better time in the past, but who knows with the new management.
Your advisor should be able to help you get all the random credits available. I got a credit for doing a test drive, and a credit for being in studio. Not sure if those are still going, but worth asking. Other than that, I haven't heard of much flexibility.

Yeah those are the only two credits he's mentioned and that show up I'll probably wait round end of year then thank you

The aggressive leasing rates of the past will probably tone down as it was a result of Lucid having large inventory to offload.

December is usually a good month as people are focused on spending on other things plus it’s end of quarter.

The '26 GGT is offering $17.5K in credits for a lease--probably a bit more if you work with a sales associate. You're looking at ~$13K less for a '27.

I'm in a similar situation for the AGT. The '26 incentives are pretty good, but I can't find a '26 in the config I want. The '27 incentives are far less; however, I'm getting the vehicle spec I really want.

I'm hoping that by the time my vehicle is delivered (expected late Nov, early Dec), the '26 inventory will be null and EOQ/EOY incentives are in play.

Yes I was interested in the 2026 inventory but unfortunately no 7 seven seater with the options I feel are must haves, did you custom order yours?

...did you custom order yours?

Interesting question.

Initially, on 21 Aug, I ordered a '26 AGT that was in inventory, but I was having doubts about Fathom Blue (stunningly beautiful in specific lighting conditions, uninspiring grey in others) and the lack of DreamDrive Pro, which I really wanted for long-haul trips. I was obsessively checking the online inventory 4-6 times per day to see if and when any 2027 models would show up.

On 31 Aug, a 2027 with my desired specs showed up as "Available in 4 Weeks." (For several hours, it was literally the only 2027 that showed up in my view of the inventory.) I immediately emailed my Sales Specialist who call me within minutes. It took him about 2 minutes to do a VIN swap, and about 10 minutes later, the 2027 AGT disappeared from "inventory" and the 2026 I had ordered on 21 Aug was again showing in inventory. (Sidebar: The 2026 Available-in-2-Weeks Fathom Blue AGT was in San Francisco and, despite the 10 days since my order, had not been prepped for shipment to Roswell; thus, the easy VIN swap.)

Now... Apparently, 31 Aug == 01 Apr, because the "Available in 4 Weeks" wasn't real and the joke was on me. (I'm not upset about it. It's actually hilarious in a sad way.) To date, as far as I can tell, that Available-in-4-Weeks AGT isn't even in production and won't be in prod until early Nov at best. (My Owner Portal vehicle status has not changed from "Preparing for Delivery" and I don't yet have a VIN, which supports the notion that it isn't yet in prod or isn't far enough along to issue a VIN.)

So... to answer your question, I thought I ordered a vehicle from inventory (see attached screenshot) but the sales machinery is behaving somewhat as if it was a custom order. Note that other '27 AGTs with similar specs (Zenith Red, Tahoe interior, DDP, glass canopy) are showing up in inventory, but none have my exact config.

Long response to a straightforward question, but my ordering experience thus far has been a bit odd. Again, I'm not stressing over it. At some point in the future, I'll be in a Lucid AGT.
