Lucid Air
We are going away from three months this summer and leaving our Lucid in the garage while we are away. We are in Florida and the garage is not air conditioned but I expect the temperature to be between 72 - 78 degrees depending on the time of day. What tips do people have for me? I have someone coming to check the house every ten days. I plan to leave the car fully charged and can turn it on remotely.
 
I am sure more experienced members will comment but I believe the guidance is to leave it around 50% charge and leave it plugged in. If the batteries needs to cool down based on the weather, Lucid will automatically do that. You don’t need to do anything. Leaving it plugged in and charge limit set to 50% will ensure,

1) You are not sitting at a high state of SOC and degrading the battery
2) You are not going to come back and find the car dead
 
Never leave an EV fully charged for long periods of time! It's exactly the wrong thing to do.
Your owner's manual is helpful:

leave the car at under 80% SOC, plug it in with the 110 plug and make sure the tires are properly inflated and all should be well. also don't ping the car often, there is no need to and it wakes the care up needlessly
