Living With A $111,700 Lucid Air Touring!!

[@SouthernGent44]

I saw one of these today on the highway in person for the first time. Pics and vids don't do it justice. It really is a beautiful car.

[@Miata822]

Agree. The camera just doesn't do it justice.

[@Miata822]

Good vlog. I've been living with my Air GT (819hp, all the options) for two years now. The OTA updates have supplied a steady stream of fixes, improvements, and new features. The latest one added the option to have the rear view mirrors point down when shifting into reverse. I really like the Dream Drive Pro, but only using it when travelling long distances on the freeway where it really helps with driver fatigue. The excellent massaging seats help too, a worthy option to check. And those long distance trips are why I bought the Lucid. It can go further at 80mph than my body can w/o stopping for a break. The Lucid app really helps with planning stops since it is better than the Electrify America app at telling you which chargers are working and unoccupied. The long range really lets you pick and choose which chargers you want to stop at. I could go on and on, but I'll stop here. Going electric does involve a learning curve, but the Lucid makes it easy, and so worth it just for the driving experience.

[@zaybxc1]

Awesome! Congrats on the car. Can your car charge at Tesla superchargers? Does it need a special plug or app?

[@Miata822]

@@zaybxc1 I can charge at the magic dock superchargers. They say se can charge at any of them using an adapter once Tesla lets Lucid on the network, but it doesn't really matter. Tesla's chargers use the legacy 400V systems so charge Lucid's 900V batteries slowly, about 40kW.

[@terrytexas8257]

I have the Air GT, and love it. Never had the issue with the creeky steering wheel, though I have seen other videos where people comment about that. Service tech should be able to fix it without issue. The Speaker phone, I have never had an issue with either, not sure what could be the problem there for you. Now, the center/steering wheel camera not seeing you is a huge problem, and LUCID knows it, nothing short than a redesign is going to fix that IMO. I only drive in Smooth mode as well, because Range is king for me. I know i have the power/speed if I really need it, but other than showing it off to others...I really don't use it. My service tech told me that LUCID over bought the massage seats for the Tahoe color and will be offering them to Touring owners to purchase to upgrade their seats. They will also be offering a special OTA to upgrade the software and controls for the seats too. Cool offer by them. There is wireless charging, but only on the driivers side and it is so poorly designed, I bought a USB charger, because the phone has to be in an exact spot to charge, frustrating. The touch screen has a cool off feature I just learned about, a double tap on the screen turns it off, and a single touch turns it back on. I consistantly get 470 mile range, but real world driving is 440 to 450 miles. It is never wise to drive to zero charge because it could damage the battery or cause the BMS to think there is an under voltage and trigger an error. Good and honest review....Good Luck!

hi i own touring !! i love lucid !! i used over 20k miles... not any problem !!!

[@NaveedKhan-qj5st]

This is the best car I have driven. I love ❤️ my Lucid Air.

[@mikhailSRT4]

Okay the backup camera telling you how many inches you have is pretty cool.

[@tuomasholo]

I agree if you had to replace the windshield due to a rock chip would that also necessitate the entire roof as well?

[@ivanronin8209]

That's why Im Buying the Lucid Pure ''!!! Blue metallic Color looks stunning ! No need expensive Glass Roof top for now ok . Let the Millionaires buy this . Im ok With Pure . 400 Miles daily range is mor then enough for my Family of 3 ! Thx

[@hectorrivera66]

I would get the windshield covered in PPF

[@NaveedKhan-qj5st]

I got 500 miles in full range. Unbeatable!!

[@acecaferacer]

which model do you have?

[@oiseauNoir]

I have the Air Touring. I had the Audi E-tron GT & my friend has the Porsche Taycan. They're all in that high price range. Taycan being the highest of them, yet the Lucid out performs them in HP/Torque & Range!😎

[@liftsandstuffs7141]

What made you swap from the E-Tron GT? I've been comparing prices and it's pretty easy to find a used RS E-Tron GT for 70-90k depending on mileage. Seems to have ate most of the depreciation as it's down more than half of retail price. Would you just consider the lucid to be a better car all around?

[@RealElectech]

​@@liftsandstuffs7141I'd like to know too. Considering a used Taycan.

[@JK-fx3vk]

Do you think the price tag of 100k is a bit high?

[@koshmary112]

Not at all, especially when the company won’t be around in 3 years.

[@davewoloszyn6300]

​@@koshmary112why won't they be around if they're selling cars everywhere? Plenty of cash to coast through 2025

[@Lowecasso]

​@davewoloszyn6300 Everywhere ? 😂 they sold 8400 so far. That's lower than Ferrari and most people barely every see Ferrari's depending on where they live.

[@cwerner11]

​@@koshmary112They'll be around...they're backed by the Saudi Sovereign Wealth Fund. So their cash flow is essentially bottomless lol.

[@rick401]

Not really You pay for the brand (which is the most luxurious EV ) And you pay for 1111hp

[@mriguy3202]

It does not qualify for the tax rebate because the sticker price is too high. Used Lucids are available at a substantial discount. It would have been nice to know what you thought of the sound system, but nice review,

[@CMCNestT]

Because BEV technology is advancing so quickly I would recommend you only lease any ICEv. In 5 years used ICEv stock is going to overwhelm falling demand and used ICEv prices will collapse.

[@Kondzio123]

Lucid is the king, love the company and the cars they are producing. This company has many projects for the future, also great vlog.

Best Authentic Video About Lucid on KZbin

[@hectorrivera66]

Insurance on the Lucid is insanely expensive.

[@Matthew00049]

surprised the drive mode screen isn't color coded to the individual car

[@rya2582]

The vlog overall was ok, but the most off putting part was the camera setup , get a GoPro camera and have a couple of cameras. The constant showing of the steering wheel while driving was very distracting. A GoPro set up on a cap actual showing you driving ala other pov vlogs would be much better. Just an opinion overall it was informative!

[@Hammydavis]

The price is structured right for what you get , lucid wants to be the best performance and luxury EV and I think they nailed it

[@michaelcambridge1542]

Lucid is all about quality. Go Lucid!!

[@Oregonwildman1]

I love thease cars their suv is insane as well

[@leftcoaster67]

You've just explained why I think auto driving is just not there. I'm ok with assistant helping people drive safer. But I don't want the car driving for me.

[@Jdnicks00]

Lucid has very good range. Love the design, but the separated screens are not necessary. Need cheaper and small version, with more physical buttons.

[@NaveedKhan-qj5st]

I highly recommend Lucid cars.

[@MrYega-zq7rz]

Look what they do with planes before they take off in it. They do a check list of things to check. I think every car owner should do this in general especially for EVs. It's a good habit but I seen people on normal gasoline engines drive with no oil, low brake fluid, flat tires, low brakes, no coolant, etc etc and wonder why their car is breaking down or not working correctly.

[@mikecronis]

I took one out. I think if you normally have an elephant of an SUV this would be considered quick, but I've owned supercharged Corvettes so I found this car mediocre and a bit slow; it's all about perspective and power-to-weight ratio. I found the Grand Touring to be close to on-par with a standard Corvette but less "light on its feet" as you can feel the ponderous weight like a freight-train, and numb steering and brake-feel, the exact opposite of my old Lotus Elise.

[@Bananagold999]

[@lowvaeater]

6.2miles/kwh!! other EV not even half of that

[@Kareem-cx4fi]

Ioniq 6 long range rwd does about 5 and Model 3 rwd does 4 something miles per kwh and hits 5 depending on driving and weather. Lucid is definitely the most efficient, but industry average is about 3 miles per kwh, with these 2 a step below the lucid.
