I'm starting this topic to share what I've learned about charging my Lucid when it is going to be outside overnight or for a few days in sub freezing temperatures.
First I want to say the updated app has done wonders for knowing what is going on with the cars battery. When temps drop below freezing the car will want to warm the battery before charging, so what I've been doing this winter when I get home for the evening is schedule charging for the following morning for a 30- 60 minute charge (time dependent on the overnight temps) before I plan on hitting the road, the screenshots below are from this morning.
The reason I started charging when the battery was at 84% is that during the winter I charge to 85%, when I came home the other night I forgot to turn on the scheduled charging and I plugged the car in....about 90 minutes later I saw via the app that the car was charging so I stopped charging at 84%.
