I'm starting to think the mid-wheel package will suit me, as with Tesla and Rivian network access, one extra charge once in a long while might be worth the tradeoff in handling.
If the 22/23's weren't Pirelli I'd consider them but I got burnt with the Pirelli's on the Air so going to opt for the mid-wheel.
I got the 19's on the Air for durability before the 20's became available. I'd prefer to do better with the Gravity.
I agree with you. There seems to be a pretty decent jump in efficiency with the ‘25’s and based on a number of data points they at least seem CAPABLE of delivering EPA using the new test…
@Knucklehead, I'm curious why you would use a tow hitch and bike rack considering the interior space of the Gravity.The list of top priority features in my new BEV is the following:
1. Range. I am looking for the longest highway range possible so I can avoid public charging.
2. A tow hitch. I put one on my Mach-e for bike rack use. If I could get a hitch installed on a Air I might go that route due to the number one priority above. I don't tow things with my Mach-e but if I got a vehicle that is built to tow I would.
3. Native NACS. This is much less important than the first two, but having it is a huge deal to me.
4. The ability to haul a 4x8 sheet of drywall. Just kidding.
I am seriously considering the Rivian R1 but the OOS range test they did with the Cybertruck was hugely disappointing. The Max T went 260 miles. It was cold and they had some snow during the test, but still. That is what I can expect in the winter here. I am really, really hoping the Gravity does much better on the highway. Common sense says it will.
I like to drive over stuff but I also want it to fit into my garage. If the longest range GMs could fit in my garage, they would be on the table. Well except the Escalade. It is way too expensive for what you get. IMO.
And yes, looks are subjective. You seem to look at vehicles as more of a utility than I do. I want something that is fun and looks good. That will never be a Odyssey. Ever. Even if it can hold a full sheet of drywall.
I'm appalled this vehicle even exists....
I have yet to literally once be upset with the Pirellis. I don’t understand why other people have had issues. But I believe they have.
No chance! I have a 22 GT and at 75 mph, I am getting around 330-340.
I had two bubbles on my original Pirelli 21s in less than 10k miles.
Have you confirmed the new “wins” they reported in the 2025? Your very knowedlagable on lucid so I’d trust if you said yes they’re 5 whkh like they say…. I have a 2023 gt and the avg 3.31 (99.7% highway at 81 mph) is the best I can do. I have the 20’s since it’s a stealth and that did change it quite a bit from my last lucid with 19’s
That 5.0 was for the '25 Pure on 19's. The '25 GT on 19's is 4.34.
Can anyone confirm this?
I see so still on 19’s I’m sure at 65-70 mph…. My 22 on 19’s gt was getting 3.7-3.9 consistently so the heat pump and a few other things helping a bit but not a ton.
That’s roughly 11-17% more efficient than your numbers though. Spread it out over a full charge and the lifetime of the car, that’s close to a ton of improvement.
