Air pure
My 2023 pure have almost 24k miles. I bought it used couple of week back.. I loved the ride and experience but not sure about battery performance.. I’m getting average 3.4 to 3.7 and never seen doing it above 4.

Are there any potential more than expected degradation? And what should be next steps that I need to workout with Lucid. I’ve my service appointment coming up next week!

Thanks in advance.
 
2026 Pure. My lifetime efficiency is 4.4 miles per kWh. This is over 1300 miles. I have 19" tires. Bigger tires are quite a bit less efficient.
 
We have a 2023 Pure with 26,500 miles on 20" tires & for 11,500 miles we averaged 3.62 mi/kwh. We just put 19" wheels on the car & seem to be doing a little better but not enough miles yet to offer anything meaningful. We bought this car as a demo with about 11,000 miles on it. We have never been able to get anything close to the miles the car claims after a charge and it is lower in winter than summer of course. The new wheels have Pirelli tires but I think & hope Michelin would be a better tire & more effecient.
 
2023 Pure bought new just over 30K miles in NJ. Lifetime efficiency about 3.5, much worse in the winter than summer. 19" tires. I think the lack of a heat pump drives the efficiency way down.
 
Model: 2023 Pure AWD 19"
Miles: ~21K
Average: 3.7 mi/kwh

My observations with AC on all time
Short trips (<10mile with traffic) without cruise : 3.4 - 3.7 mi/kwh (Varies on driving habbits)
Short trips (<10mile with traffic) with cruise : 3.7 - 4.0 mi/kwh
Long trips with cruise at 70 mi/hr speed : 4+ mi/kwh

Factors that I noticed, may be there are others which I haven't listed below :
Uphill vs down hill
Acceleration habits
Weather
Weight that we carry
AC
Speed
 
24 Pure RWD, 19" Pirelli's
7,000 miles
4.14 mi/kWh

I usually keep my speed at or below 72 on freeways. No temperature extremes where I live, rarely below 40 or above 100 degrees.
 
2024 Lucid Air Pure
18,393 miles
4.04 mi/kWh

All types of driving using A/C on or heater w/ seat heaters on, seat massage on. Have gotten as good as 380 miles on a 100% charge, flat stuff doing 72 mph (traffic dependent of course.) Going from 26 feet to 8K feet (probably the worst you can put a vehicle through) and back down a total of 193.9 miles I got 2.5 mi/kWh (up) with heater on (40 F outside) and used 188 miles on the battery on the way up and back down the hill only used 30 miles (registered 4.5 mi/kWh) with A/C on. So for the total 193.9 miles driven I used 218 on battery so that was a 24.1 (218-193.9) miles that it cost to do the trip, you always take a hit on the battery. Have done this many times and is always this consistent. Very nice to still have 170 miles on the battery once down the hill, plus a blast to drive the car on the twisty winding mountain roads!

My lease is up 7/2027 I hope they bump up 100% charge on the Pure by that time, haven't seen any numbers yet. RWD and 19" wheels rule!!!
 
2023 Pure AWD on 19s without aero covers. 3.74 miles per kWh since some idiot (me) accidentally reset Trip B around 8k miles ago. Temperate climate year round, not lead-footed, and about an equal mix of highway and city driving.
