Steering wheel in my Air GT blocks the console quite a bit.

[Hoggie52]

Just a thought...
I'm an average 5'-10" driver who finds the steering wheel in my Air GT blocking the console display quite a bit.
I can barely see the in-dash cameras when I change lanes while my turn signals are on.
Even with the steering wheel raised and extended (beyond my comfort zone), I can only see about 50% of the in-dash cameras during a lane change.
I wish Lucid had an option to replace the steering wheel with a "yoke" style like the Model S, I believe that would eliminate this problem... or move the in-dash cams somewhere else where there are no obstacles.
What's the point of having these if the driver can't get a clear view of the lane he/she is turning into?
I can raise the wheel of course, but then the top of the steering wheel will be in my line-of-sight out the windshield.

It a long-complained of issue with the ergonomics. If you lower the seat you can se more, but the wheel is then too high. If you lower the wheel you're back to the same issue. Most of u have just learned to drive with the wheel a little higher than we'd like and give a little peering under the top of the wheel to see certain things as needed.

Agreed this could have been designed better.

Yeah, I adjusted my seat height and steering wheel position to mitigate as much as possible. In the end I just made peace with this obvious design deficiency. Thankfully there aren't many of these in an otherwise great car (IMHO).

Yes. But I’m with you. For such a nicely designed screen it’d be nice to easily see it!

That's probably why they went with the squircle for the Gravity

This is why you have Highway Assist.
Turn it on and you can scroll your smart phone all day long. No need to look at the dashboard or the road. HA will follow the right line and take the first exit.

It would be nice to user-delete or force two-factor verification before HA comes on.
If this can't be done then how's about a warning claxon or fire alarm to tell me I've lost control of the vehicle?

If Lucid wanted you to look at the pilot panel they would put something useless behind the wheel, like their logo.

The best part is when you press the ADAS button and can no longer see your current speed, cruise speed, or whether Hands-Free is available or if Adaptive Cruise/Drive Assist mode is selected or enabled. But thankfully we have a complete view of the traffic visualizer, so we can confirm that there is indeed a tractor-trailer located right beside our car.

Pretty sure it was.

However, after hating the yoke in our Model S Plaid, I'm still surprised at how great the squircle is, not just for viewing the cockpit display, but for driving as well. I've actually come to prefer it over any conventional steering wheel I've ever used. And the variable-ratio steering makes it even sweeter.

Lucid tested 17 different steering configurations for the Gravity before settling on the squircle. Tesla engineers just took their marching orders for another Musk vanity project. (I sometimes suspect those atrocious, poorly-placed, and hard to see or feel turn signal buttons were their private revenge on him.)

I actually like my Tesla yoke but think the buttons are a stupid solution to a problem that didn’t even exist.

IMHO a yolk is fine when driving an Xbox but not a 8,9,1000 hp 5,000pound car
