OOS trying to get a Gravity

[Volund]

Kyle has been very open about loving the car, and it's basically free advertising for Lucid, and they even want to buy one as a customer. Lucid needs to get one in their hands to get the word out there more.

Excited for all the future Gravity content that's going to pop up.

Imagine the uproar in if Kyle magically got a Gravity while everyone else was still waiting with not ETA on delivery from Lucid? Especially given that it appears he hasn't ordered one based on comments in his videos or at least ordered one the day orders opened like many did in here.

Besides, he lives in Colorado and looks like Lucid can't sell him one even if they wanted to just like all the other states on the CARB certification list.

When he bought his CT he actually got a relative to be the official purchaser on the docs in FL as they were able to get one faster there.

However, yes, I do agree there would be issues if Kyle were able to jump the queue like that. However I don't see a reason Lucid couldn't lend one to him for a week or so. I know the Lucid employees in Cherry Creek are well aware of him.

It doesn't appear any of the bigger influencers or Car Mags are getting a Gravity to do any official testing whether its Edmunds or Car and Driver for range and instrumented testing, or OOS, Savagegeese, Hagerty, Throttle House etc. I find it amazing there are no press car except for the fact that they don't want people messing with the software and HUD until something is finished or Carplay is supported.

Yeah, I would've had a bigger issue with him getting preferential treatment, but he said he wants to purchase one too, so he isn't even looking for a freebie which is commendable. But I was thinking it would help the brand if he did get one sooner than later. But I can also see the HUD stuff, and not wanting to release until completely finished or polished.

Thought I'd throw it out there anyways

They were critical of the Volvo

I remember Kyle did a first drive of the Volvo in late summer of 2024 and the software and ADAS was not really working. So, it seems they are releasing these cars in phases of beta testing of low volume at first. I remember the Ioniq 9 being given to journalists with camo covers on the interior and screens.
