Too bad charity stars is a largely For Profit company that uses gambling science to get your money. They keep a large sum of all the money and their small donations allow them to make tons of tax write-offs. People should just donate directly to a cause. Bad looks.

[@davidhunternyc1]

We need Sandy Munro to teardown the Lucid Air and compare it to the Tesla. Also, it "seems" that Rivian has the best quality between these three brands.

[@RWBHere]

Thanks for the review, Ryan. 🙂👍 It's an excellent first product, and the slightly rough edges should be sorted out with time and customer feedback. I'd be very impressed if they made a RHD version, for sale in Britain, and the other lands who drive on the left side of roads. They have a combined population of around 2 billion people.

A comprehensive review. My Grand touring Air was delivered in early Sept 2022---I am glad to report that the issues reported in the above review are no longer an issue---Having driven approximately 4700 miles sine since then---no rattling or creaking in the vehicle and the blind spot delay not a delay.

Ryan’s channel has also grown significantly over the past year alone. It’s clear this is what the people want.

Great review Ryan! Way out of my price range but beautiful car that seems fun to drive.

[@SmartMart1658]

Polestar has sold over 55,000 Polestar 2 cars to date - more than Lucid and Rivian. Polestar plans to produce 290,000 cars by 2025. Polestar 3 should be as popular as Tesla's Model Y. Polestar 2 has a $7500 EV tax credit advantage over Tesla and GM. $5 a gallon in the USA should be great news for EV manufacturers and also for EV stocks. Looking forward to the Polestar merger vote on 22nd June. Happy to be a Polestar GGPI & TSLA & LCID & CHPT investor.

[@1KJRoberts]

Ryan, Pull over! This is the grammar police. At 21:40, The Lucid doesn't drive "...as good as the Tesla...", it drives as '...well as the Tesla.' (It's a good job, well done not a well job good done.) And incidentally, you've done a good job of comparing and contrasting the Lucid & the Tesla. My only nit to pick is I would suggest when you're pointing to various items, describe and say what you're pointing at. Example; The 3 distinct zones of the dashboard you could describe as; Left, Middle & Right. And one last comment: Car reviews are notorious for colorful & descriptive language to convey the emotive aspects of the car. Your auditory style comes across like you're a Preachers' Son. Please, keep up the good work!

Hey Ryan, agree on all accounts. I have Tesla Y, X Plaid, and S plaid. And I got a new Lucid 2 weeks ago Grand Touring. Great a luxurious car, software needs a lot of work. Simple things that continually bog down software-wise. I feel like they need to do a lot of work to make this an enjoyable car tech-wise. It is fast and a great car to drive, but for the cost, this is not there.

Excellent review Ryan. Good to be able to compare to a Model S.

[@Miata822]

Good review. The Dream edition cars were similar to a "Founders Series" and are no longer being made. Those first edition cars do seem to have more little issues with trim and squeaks. The Air GT (same features but 'only' 800hp) I received about a month ago is flawless and dead silent other than the low-speed motor sound that I too find quite appealing. A major feature not mentioned is the ridiculously fast charging speed. Plugging in at 10-15% I get 22 miles per minute, adds 200 miles faster than a restroom break and buying a soda for the road. I got an OTA update last night that supposedly improves the nav and addresses a number of bugs. Hopefully it launches more quickly [EDIT: "Hopefully the *software* launches more quickly..." The car itself launches dramatically, almost painfully quickly] because that can be pretty slow. The car will drive before the big screen is loaded so if you have to hop in and go, that works.

[@cosettapessa6417]

Cool. How much did you pay and how much warranty does it have?

[@Miata822]

@@cosettapessa6417 I paid 139kUSD plus prep and shipping (they detail it and delivered to my door). Price went up for later orders and a more powerful version came out since then. Prices today range from 87kUSD to 180kUSD. Warranty for everything is for 4 years and 50,000 miles. After that the battery and motor units are covered for a total of 8 years or 100,000 miles. The car goes on sale in Europe later this year. Price and warrantee will likely be different there. Production will be slow until the factory expansion is finished. construction is ongoing (see "BearsWorkshop" on KZbin to see that), but pre-ordered cars are shipping today. Sold out until mid-2023. See LucidMotors dotcom for some cool configuration tools and graphics and to see more details. "Lucid Motors" KZbin channel also has lots of great info, including race footage and a couple detailed Tech Talk videos covering batteries and design.

[@michelmasse6225]

One quick comment about front trunk (frunk): I understand the benefit of electric operating frunk, there is a condition to improve first. I own a Tesla Y. My real need would be the possibility to cool the frunk. In the summer or heat it in the winter. Did you ever check the temperature in the frunk on a hot sunny summer day with the Octovalve HVAC running full speed? And let’s not forget the plug to drain water when using it as an ice box ;)

[@Cliff-M-]

[@fearsomebeard4290]

I have the Air Touring on order and am on the interest list for the upcoming Gravity. My estimated delivery for my Air Touring is December 2022. The Gravity is estimated for the 2024 model year and has yet to start taking deposits. I am very excited about my Air Touring order in Zenith Red with the Tahoe interior. To me the EQS interior is way over done and the Model S interior is a bit too spartan, thus the Air interior is just right.

Thanks for your details review. It's cool. One question, Is the camera recording like tesla for car accident record using?

[@irvinwright4075]

From my perspective, this car has so many buttons, knobs, and switches, I believe it is a great example of the antithesis of what Elon has stated is optimal design; the best part is no part. Or broken down to the core principle, so often heard, it would be the KISS acronym. Well done review. Thank you.

[@vxyz5219]

Buttons, knobs and switches are universally far more practical and simple to use. Never understood Elon's marketing claims of "optimal design" when it's merely removing practicality for the sake of aesthetic design.

[@michaelzeng54]

Just as a disclaimer, the Lucid Air Pure which is starting production Q4, will not be 2 toned. The exterior chassis will be one color all around, other than accents.

I love this panoramic windshield (like the Tesla X) but I wonder why they did not design a sun visor that can be clipped on the pilar for clean 100% view? I miss this on my Tesla Y :(

[@martinzhang5533]

I made a reservation for the pure version a while back before they raised the price for 10k. After tax credit that one is like 70k. That puts it in an interesting spot. Range is a tad better than base model s, is only RWD and is much slower, but it's 30k cheaper and does not force one to use a yoke. I do think with the recent price increase the lucid loses much of its competitiveness though. But it is always good to have alternatives and the deposits are fully refundable

[@timothyhowes]

I did the same thing following the exact logic you used. A luxury EV with 400 miles of range for $70k is not bad. I’m a big Tesla fan having owned three Model Ys. The Air Pure model seems to be a solid value.

[@Bhoum1k]

Great review, Model Y Perf owner here and love every bit of my car no issues after 2yrs of driving it daily. With that being said I'm glad there's competition but for this price, if I'm going outside of Tesla and their superior supercharging network I'd opt for the Porsche Taycan all day.

[@smithers5816]

Did the car only have Spotify to check out the sound system? Spotify only offers lossy, compressed audio (for the moment) so not really a good gauge for testing. Was there a USB slot to test your own lossless/hi res digital files? Or the offer from any of Tidal, Apple Music, Amazon Music Unlimited? I thought the Lucid Air was supposed to have Dolby Atmos? (again not available on Spotify).

Love the yoke steering wheel on my Model S. Whenever I have to drive another car with a normal wheel feels outdated and unattractive. Owned it 6 months but was use to it fairly quickly. The turn signals for me was the biggest point of adaption but was use to it after a long drive home. The yoke is square at the bottom so turning was no big deal.

The windshield for a Tesla Model X is $1311 for the windshield, $1597 installed. "Widescreen" has nothing to do with the windshield. "Widescreen" is the 17" landscape mode computer screen Tesla introduced early 2021 as opposed to the portrait mode they used before that.

From a looks perspective the wheel axle distance (I don't know the technical term), and the drop down into the car (looks low to the ground like a sports car or Mazda Miata). I am assuming this is all for a specific purpose, but it does take a hit in looks for both of these. That being said, I love the look of the car and have 1 reserved. Thanks!

I just had my windshield cracked in my Mach-e and it will cost $1500 to replace! I just can’t even imagined how much this one will cost!

Wow! Very impressive. I have never looked into this car yet so this review was a great look! Surprised this is car is not getting wayyy more attention. Not worried about the software being slow because OTA updates will definitely fix that over time I’m sure. Thanks!! 😀

The fact they have only delivered a few hundred cars so far and hope to deliver 12,000 in 2022 (emphasis on hope) is likely why they are not getting much attention. Lucid doesn't expect to make a profit until 2024.

@@brownro214 there are videos on KZbin with drone footage of the lucid auto plant, and they are building a facility that looks about 5x as big as the current one. I expect them to be able to keep improving numbers over the next few years. Looks impressive for a startup

Competition! Aaaahhh The growth has been amazing. Hopefully things will get better and better. I am all for advancement. I need an affordable form of transportation. Preferably a car of some sort. Don't need a lot of complications. Just practical, affordable, reliable transportation. I also think that public transportation needs to be developed. Like high speed rail. Why are we so far behind?

lol I think thats a problem with a lot of cars. The only complaint my father in law had about his new chevy astro was the interior build quality.

The position of the big center display is a problem. It is so low that to look at it the driver can’t just lower his eyes, he needs to move his head. That will be especially challenging for people with bifocal glasses as the near sighted portion of the lens at the bottom edge of the glasses will go out of view as the driver lowers his head and the driver will be attempting to see the display with the far sighted portion of the lens. That will cause the display to be out of focus. That display should be shut off while the car is in motion.
