As an industrial designer, I'm pretty impressed with the design team at Lucid. They've stripped away the visual bulk since the concept teaser images were revealed. Most impressive is the approach to usability & aerodynamics. I really hope Lucid can survive. This vehicle will make or break the company. Great interviews & video, btw Tom.

She is good for the simplicity. On the apps, the breathing exercise is a good feature. To be fair, it is difficult to design for so much screen space. The designer even prefers to put on ambient because then at least it consistent. I think speed projection in front + big screen middle will become the standard for the average EV.

@@ericnewton5720 Again, battery degradation will reduce that 300 miles as the car ages and if you don't practice good charging habits. Add in hilly terrain, extreme temperatures, windy days and faster driving and your range will drop even lower faster. A 400 mile range gives you a buffer for all that. And yes, you can charge more often on a trip, if you have the extra time. But that also means you will be paying varying charging fees, which are way more expensive than home charging. 400 miles of range is the perfect minimum and would really get ICE owners attention to go with an EV.

How helpful for my rectangular content... in this case they've put a massive bezel on the screen and had it float high, so it seems from the back seat camera view, that it obstructs the windscreen and therefore visibility. Presumably, it doesn't for Tom but how is it for a shorter driver?

Lucid is clearly targeting the high end with all the advanced “experience” features. When lucid realizes the bulk of public with more discretionary budget are around the 50-80k range. Anything higher than that figure and you’re in rarified territory and those sales numbers are much lower. The engineering and range are being hampered by the expense of a lot of things that don’t contribute much to the driving of it. It certainly looks great and the range sounds phenomenal but price over 110k just puts it in a totally different rarified realm of buyers. It’ll be interesting to see how Porsche Macan EV will stack up since it’s basically smaller suv with almost as much range.

Do they split the pack in two, or use a proper 400v on-board charger? What is their solution? And is the port on either the passenger front or the driver's rear? Those 2 issues are what's hammering the sales of the current Lucids. If they haven't solved both of those, they might as well fold now. The sales of the Gravity will be as low as the current ones are.

Like “Gravity, close the garage door”, “Gravity, turn on my heated seat, level 2” and “Gravity, Sport mode!” Those functions may be able to be user programmed, but the should be native functions.

We own a 2021 Model S Plaid (replaced our 2015 Model S P90D) and a 2022 Lucid Air Dream Performance. The Air interior absolutely trounces the Model S interior in terms of material quality, fit and finish, and roominess. That "inexpensive feeling material on the dash" of the Air consists of real open-pore wood, Alcantara, and an alpaca wool blend. By contrast, the yoke of our Model S has lost a dime-sized piece of its synthetic covering, and two more pieces are beginning to peel away. ( We have a request in for a replacement but have been told one is "not currently available".). We also have misaligned trim pieces in the Tesla cabin but none in the Air. Also, with the driver seat of both the Model S and the Air set to my preferred driving position, there is 9.5" more of fore/aft rear legroom in the Air than in the Tesla. Once we got the Air, we quit using the Tesla for transporting more than two people. It was just the kinder thing to do. With over 20,000 miles on our Air, the body remains quiet and rock solid. By 10,000 miles the Tesla was developing squeaks and groans in its rear quarters. The Air also rides and handles better than the Tesla and has a quieter interior, although the Tesla has active noise cancellation. (That was enabled via a software update a couple of months after we took delivery, but we discerned no difference in cabin noise levels.) This Plaid will be our last Tesla. As soon as orders open up, we'll be placing one for a Lucid Gravity to replace our 2018 Honda Odyssey minivan. We've been waiting for a roomy 6-7-adult EV hauler to complete our transition to an all-EV household, and the Lucid is the one that will best fit the bill. (We've test driven a Model X twice, but I just can't get my head around a passenger hauler that doesn't even have storage pockets or a center armrest in the second row. If you get the 7-passenger version, you can buy a tacky strap-on armrest from EVannex or another after-market supplier, but with the 6-passenger version you can't even do that. Your inboard arm either rests in your lap or hangs into an abyss. Why Tesla finally added a rear center armrest to the Model S during its 2021 refresh but didn't do the same with the Model X is an enduring mystery.)

Gonna try to keep an open mind about Lucid, but this is difficult after their *_obvious, criminal IPO shenanigans_* for which the CEO should have been prosecuted by the SEC.

But Musk's SEC troubles are just water off a duck's back, huh? He was put under a consent settlement and required to step down as chairman, you know, for market manipulation relating to the failed deal in which he tried to get the Saudis to finance his taking Tesla private. (The Saudis instead funded the building of the factory that got Lucid off the ground, which is one of the reasons Musk and his acolytes keep attacking Lucid any way they can.)
