Lucid has once again missed a deadline, with the anticipated Q2 2025 rollout of Tesla Supercharger access for Air

Access to Tesla Supercharger has become the new Android Auto Thursday.


From Lucid press release on Jan 28th "Furthermore, in addition to the Lucid Gravity, access to the Tesla Supercharger network for Lucid Air is planned for Q2 2025, with more information to follow."

There will be many more to miss
Take Lucid’s timeline with a grain of salt.

Planned, plans could fall apart….

Waiting for Tesla access may very well be……in Teslas hands. Their timelines for “planned” items are far worse than Lucid’s if history proves anything. And people wonder why Lucid usually decides to stay quiet….

Planned, plans could fall apart….

And frequently do unfortunately

Lucid said Q3 at least a month ago. It's disappointing, but not totally surprising or unusual.

I think pretty much every company who has made an agreement with the SuperCharger network has been a bit behind their initial predictions. These sorts of deals take time. I wouldn't put the blame on either party. It's complicated getting these things hashed out.

The important thing is Gravity already has access. So we know the Air can't be too far behind. It's not a matter of the company being shut out or something.

I don't plan on ever using Superchargers with my Air, anyway. In a pinch, maybe, if all other options are exhausted. It'll be nice to have. But so long as Air can't get top speeds, there will almost always be a faster option for me.

Its 95% useless right now without Tesla refreshing V4 chargers. I feel this should not be Lucid’s priority unless Air is going to get native NACS soon
