We've gone over this many times here on the forum. The decision to go sedan first was not Peter's. He was coerced into that as part of the terms for his becoming CEO of the company.The strategic mistake was launching a sedan, following the Tesla model roadmap of large sedan, large suv at high price points to learn and earn but the Model S was ahead of the competition and unique at the time, so it sold in high volumes. Since that time, the US market ihas become very focused on SUVs. Lucid should have made the Gravity the first car followed by a smaller SUV as they learned to scale.
I'm still glad they did, because otherwise I wouldn't have become interested in Lucid when I did.
