Motortrend tested cold weather driving

An Extreme Winter Test in Our Long-Term Lucid Air Left Us Hot and Cold

We let our long-term Lucid Air sit out in single-digit temperatures overnight then drove it until it went into limp mode. Here’s what we learned.

Lol as someone who recently completed a multi-day road trip during the winter, can confirm. Idk why the heating system lies to you. Also, I never trust the range indicator, and instead I keep the car in percentage display mode and do my own math. However, I think the the range estimator has improved a bit there was an update that addressed it somewhat.

For those curious what the non-performance model gets on the GT, it’s something around 320-330 miles. I haven’t tested full to 0 myself, but I’ve extrapolated the percentages.

I guess the tester didnt use the nav which seems accurate at predicting range however he is correct that the range stated without using nav is wildly inaccurate. He's vague on how long it took to get from 15 to 5% and also seems surprised by restricted power at 5%.

It ended, and was overall positive with some bugs! A fair review, IMO.
