It depends on whether the general public is just reading the articles or going to web sites like this to get the other side of the story. The articles really glaze over some of the problems owners have had as if they do not exist.
Yep..... Its always had.a pricing problem because Lucid doesn't seem to know what it wants to be. A performance vehicle or luxury vehicle? They've gone for both even though the marketing has always been focused on luxury. The downside is that when they've included both, owners are certainly paying for it. Do luxury owners want to spend the extra $$ for the performance as well? By the look of the reservation numbers, it doesn't seem like it.
If the larger battery for range and extra horsepower were not offered for the price of 139.5K, I would not have bought my Lucid GT. I would have bought the Taycan Turbo instead.
Coming from a 2018 Panamera Turbo that did 0-60 in 3.5 seconds, I prefer that kind of acceleration.
I really don’t think there is any schizophrenia with lucids approach at all. BMW and Mercedes have been producing luxury sport sedans for half a century. Tesla upped the game but Lucid brought luxury much more into focus. If you want luxury buy a touring, if you want more performance buy a GT or Dream. It’s that simple
Yeah, They are all over Twitter. Looks like they are trying to generate some positive Buzz out there as the Earnings Call draws nearer. Can’t get here soon enough for me.
I find this statement absolutely hilarious considering this is an owners forum, lol
When I look at your picture, all I see is the red tractor. So jealous - even though I live in the city and have absolutely no use for such a beast.
So I found the Motor Trend article very interesting. Johnny mentioned that the Air Grand Touring Performance has a modified suspension compared with the Dream Edition that he feels improves the handling performance even better. Curious if those improvements will be available retroactively for the Dream???
I am a retired International Grower and have done consultation on food crops all over the planet and worked with all sorts of machinery for food production and processing in my career. The 65 HP Kubota in the picture is actually quite small compared to the giants for food crops. I use it to mow my front yard with a 8 foot wide estate mower though I also have a smaller tractor with cab and two zero turn mowers.
