Ordering and Delivery: Lucid Air Pure

[lucidtouringman]

I ordered a fully loaded Pure except color is QG.
My DA estimates that my VIN will be assigned in the next 3-6 weeks.
Time to scrape together the funds

Mine is fully loaded Fathom Blue...reserved since July 2021 but no sign of any confirmation yet....please keep us updated on yours!

 

[Lucken]

I was told that payment will need to be made in "two to three weeks". Waiting for the VIN.

I thought payment wasn’t required until delivery was imminent?

 

[Viking]

For those that have their Lucid isn't payment due on delivery? I've always wrote a check as I picked up my car.

Yes, due on delivery. Can have the checks handed to them during delivery

I paid through the ACH link provided by Lucid.

Yes, that too is my understanding.

It is well-known that they’re producing the Pure variant last after the other more pricey ones. This has never been a secret.

Correct.. and it's a good thing for them to take their time to work out any issues... I've reserved since July 2021.. and I hope another 3-6 months should be it..

 

[VVS Wraith]

For the pure I finalized my order with AWD and the quantum gray color. Does anyone know if I could change it to RWD without canceling my order since it most likely won't come till the end of the year?

Talk to your SA. He should be able to put in a ticket for the change. I did this to add DDPro so it can be done as long your car did not go to production and HQ agrees. Good luck!

 

[THE703KG]

I know this. My point is on the delivery tracker for Air Pure many reservations made well after mine are being confirmed and finalized. And yes I know they moved the Fathom Blue configs ahead of the others.

 

[Bobby]

That’s a good question for your delivery advisor, I suspect it has something to do with the exact configuration of the vehicle.

 

[JerseyStrong]

That’s a good question for your delivery advisor, I suspect it has something to do with the exact configuration of the vehicle.

Your response to The703KG is one factor in the frustration. There are others. Part of the discontent of a number of us with early reservations is that, for whatever reason, the California 12 were a one-off right before the end of the year and Pures haven’t been produced since. Some of us were miffed that folks with much later reservations were invited by Lucid to jump the line ahead of us thinking it was the beginning of a solid run of Pure production rather than a year-end publicity event. According to the tracker I have one of the 2 oldest reservations and I have the configuration for earliest production. My DA‘s response today to my question of when will production of Pures start was that he hoped he would have an answer in Feb. I fully understand the realities a new company like Lucid faces. But there are buyer realities as well: succumbing to delay-fatigue; facing the reality that their current drive has to be replaced sooner rather than later; finding themselves forced out of Lucid’s price range by the change in economic circumstances; or discovering a new BEV that comes close to what they want and is available. In the best of a buyer’s world, my DA would have said, ”Production is slated to begin ….” But, I remind myself, when my new model 2013 MKZ was delayed, Lincoln wasn’t any more forthcoming than Lucid as to when I could expect delivery. I wish there were an emoji for drumming one’s fingers because that is the one I would post. 27 months and counting; in our culture, that is a life-time.

I don't work for Lucid and I have no insider information. My response was an honest response and the only one I could think of. If you find it frustrating, I apologize, but that is the reality.

Hello all,
I'm new to the forum. Have a pure reservation from Dec 2021. I had a question for members here. I don't want to buy the lucid anymore since since my circumstances have changed and my rivian delivery is coming up in the next few weeks. Can I just refuse buying the lucid and lose the deposit? Is there any other formality involved?

If you cancel now, you may even get your deposit back if you have not finalized your configuration. Talk with you SA and decide.
