I concur. Since 3.6.0 my key fob has worked 100% of the time even before the recent fob update firmware that came out for it. The software is night and day compared to what the car launched with. Honestly, the software has been stable for me for probably 4 to 6 months now.
Just remember, Cadillac has a more robust service network. Cadillac probably has almost 600 dealers, Lucid- 45 service centers. It’s a given that Cadillac will sell more despite being a worse vehicle.
I do not agree with your previous assessment that- “ it’s a 100k vehicle so it should be perfect”. That’s where we disagree.
I never said that. Like I never said Gravity tech was outdated.
You overlooked the point about the Vistiq at the end of the post. Those two are selling at volume without discounts off MSRP. Gravity could be capturing those sales.
Exactly, it’s embarrassing…..no wonder the entire leadership team got shafted. Gravity should have been released with 3.60 iteration of the software. A few YouTubers had to light up their backsides to get it fixed promptly, otherwise they would have taken their sweet time.
I agree the key is better, but still FAR worse than any cheap car, like the my Nissan rental from last week.
There's a button on the lip of the trunk just to the right of center that you can use to open the trunk. The frunk does not have this feature and you must either use the key fob, the Lucid app or get into the car and use the touch screen.
My opinion is that the brutal reviews of the poor software quality have held back sales. While the software quality has improved, we have a dearth of new reviews cheering Lucid's progress on that front. I'm not a marketing person, but I think the marketing team at Lucid needs to figure out a way get the word out that the software quality has gotten a lot better. I'm sure that's a bit of a delicate dance for them, because no company likes to acknowledge that their first iteration of a product was deeply flawed, and it's hard to say you're better without acknowledging the initial failure.
The car still has to unlock first though. I assume that's what he's referring to. Mine has the same issue. Can't open any door, liftgate, frunk, or charge flap until the fob is first recognized to unlock the car, and that often takes 5-20 seconds.
it does.
Sorry to be nosy, but if you are comfortable enough to make the move to a Gravity, why don't you place an order now? Do you always buy off the lot or want to first drive the car you actually get? Truly, just curious. With that amount of time until you take the plunge, why not order now and get a vehicle exactly as you want with a later build date?
. There is no "right" answer.These two posts kind of sum up what I think is the state of things... Expensive cars do have trouble finding buyers when they do not deliver the essentials in their category or primary purpose. That is what I am personally feeling, and I wonder if more buyers are like that. When the Gravity launched, it was a great electric car. But it was not great at simply being a car, especially an expensive luxury car. And therefore, it has been able to attract well-heeled enthusiast buyers who can both afford the car and are willing to tolerate the issues and quirks, but the Gravity needs to bridge to capture the prosperous buyers who want a great car, not just a great electric car.
Somebody just posted in another thread that it didn't fix their fob delay.it does.
There may be more than one reason that some people experience an entry delay. Fob hardware, vehicle hardware, fob software, vehicle software, and a complex tree below each.Somebody just posted in another thread that it didn't fix their fob delay.
