Picking Up A Brand New Lucid Air

[@Miata822]

I've had my Air GT for a year now and it never gets old. Have fun!

[@BigBoss-cc2mh]

How's it doing so far ?

[@Miata822]

@@BigBoss-cc2mh Love it! It's a great road-trip car. My summer travel plans are starting to fill up. OTA updates keep improving the software and adding new little features and options. My favorite new one lets me automatically aim the passenger side mirror down when reversing. It's a small detail, but paying attention to the details is what Lucid does. No squeaks or rattles yet. Still hasn't been in for service but I really should just let them check everything I suppose. It's still thrilling just to get behind the wheel and drive. The Lucid has spoiled me for driving anything else.

[@Miata822]

Quick note on my delivery. I didn't want to go to the showroom, about an hour drive from my home. Lucid made an appointment that fit my schedule and delivered my Air GT to my home on a trailer. I had as much time as I wanted to go over the car with their assistant. It was a low-key process, just like I like. Just a couple weeks ago, 2 years after delivery, Lucid called me about my overdue service and a couple minor recalls that were outstanding on my car. They offered to come pick it up and leave me a loaner. I declined the loaner, have other cars, but while it was in the shop they adjusted a couple things I had noticed and mentioned as well as replacing a mirror that I had negligently scraped (I paid for that, of course). The car was returned in immaculate shape and on-time. Lucid isn't about a grandiose unboxing experience, gaudy crystal knobs, fake grilles, chrome. Lucid isn't about gimmicks. Think 'stealth-wealth' or IYKYK. Real luxury is about the quality and the function. Lucid makes drivers' cars for those who enjoy the experience of piloting themselves along the path they have chosen.

[@UraniumFever88]

That hot wheel is awesome. The Air is my favorite EV.

[@meadmaker4525]

Sounds like a bank vault when you close the doors. Beautiful car. Would love to own one, but don't want to have to mortgage my house to do so. Maybe if that lottery win happens. Thanks for taking us through your delivery.

[@jon4lakers]

Looks great!!!

[@AutoEnthusedTV]

Thanks, Jon! 🙌🏼 Maybe revisit the Lucid with the Stealth Package? 😉

[@jay.torres]

Haha that’s right by my office! Awesome, enjoy the car!

[@AutoEnthusedTV]

Right on!

[@haircafekevin]

Unbelievably nice car! I came very close to buying a Lucid Air Pure but it was slightly outside my price range so I ended up getting a Kia EV6 GT. It's great to see all of these amazing electric cars becoming available and honestly I don't think I could ever go back to an ICE vehicle at this point.

[@EnzroGreenidge]

I was waffling between Fathom blue and white for my Air Pure. I am going with the white. Thanks for the video.

[@AutoEnthusedTV]

Either one looks good! The fathom blue has charisma in person

[@challengersrt5397]

Way cooler looking than Tesla, nice buy!

[@weho_brian]

i own a Model Y and I feel like a sheep, we need better EV options out there

[@genec8149]

That's a car I'd love to own with the power and the size of both the front and back seats and that massive power frunk more than makes up for the trunk. Looks and drives awesome.

[@Alross-f7o]

My husband keeps sending me your videos to get me excited about the new Lucid arriving in the driveway this weekend. And it’s working! Thanks!

[@AutoEnthusedTV]

Excited for you guys!

[@tennaj1367]

How do you like it??

[@Alross-f7o]

@@tennaj1367 love it!

[@Lana_Ray_Travel]

Wow the white looks so much better here than on their website

[@AutoEnthusedTV]

It definitely has presence in person!

[@HowardLange09]

Lucids are awesome. I see them on the road now. If someone spills something and is mopping it up that is bad? Have you done launch control in sprint mode yet?

[@AutoEnthusedTV]

Not bad at all. That's why we said it was probably not their fault because they should have known that there was a pick up scheduled that morning. Yee has tried sprint mode but he is also preparing a video review of his Lucid Air Touring. Watch out for that one :)

[@HowardLange09]

@@AutoEnthusedTV what I meant is what if someone spilled something just before your arrival. I doubt not knowing about an arrival, but Who knows, I was not there.

Awesome dude, just now saw ur wrx review, keep on man!

Thank you! That was 6 years ago so I appreciate you watching it :D

Nice video on the fundamentals of reality detachment.

Quite a vague statement but thanks for commenting.

[@Mario-qua]

Nice..... enjoy driving.

[@tennaj1367]

SWeet ! Any updates on the car?

[@weho_brian]

like the car but will the company survive? I want the Gravity

[@스마일리-x4o]

우와 멋지네요. 부러워요. 한참걸리겠지만 한국에도 어서 출시되면 좋겠네요. SUV인 그레비티 모델로 구매의사 있어요. :)

[@Sanetuber]

How did the apple car play do? You didn’t complete that review part? And what about music sound/speaker system? And long term do you recommend glass canopy or aluminum roof?

[@Lucidnaire]

Not huge fan of white interrior, I got the grey

[@AutoEnthusedTV]

Grey looks good!

[@faran1684]

with that price tag those pedals should be better

[@josuethomas1980]

I got the touring with 20' tire my mileage is not up to par. What is your experience?

[@brianrguymon]

wheel size will change the estimate mileage. 19" will get the best mileage. This is the same with all cars, and the Lucid's algorithm doesn't fake the numbers like other *cough-Tesla* cars did a couple years back.

[@Pashya1]

Of all those beautiful colors Lucid has, you chose white 😁

[@AutoEnthusedTV]

To be fair, aside from varying shades of grey, the only “color” they offered was burgundy and fathom blue 😁

[@Pashya1]

Hmm... I prefer them to the white Lucids. But I respect your choice. My wife is all about white vehicles. For me it has to be very specific vehicles to be white. 😊

[@swisstrader]

Actually was all set to buy a Lucid Air, but didnt happen. Why?? First, Lucid’s financial team could never quite give me a straight answer as to how much the car would actually cost with their financial calculator. Lots of back and forth, lots of “sorry, let me have someone get back to you”, and just very clear to me that they didnt have their act together. Then visited the shopping mall showroom a couple times and it was equally clear that the salesmen/saleswomen had very little knowledge about the car, pricing, options, etc. Then went for a test drive and I was a bit underwhelmed. Definitely nicer interior than the Tesla but then I also checked out the new BMW ix50 and that had more tech and more plush interior than I could imagine. Then test drove the ix and it blew away the Lucid. Lucid just felt like it had quality issues and staff all around seemed like they were not well trained. Couple that with a company that is more of a boutique car company and made me a bit nervous. Final nail in the coffin was their supposed great deal with a monthly lease price of $1299, but fine print required an up front payment of $11K….made no sense. Ended up buying the ix and very happy w the decision.

[@AutoEnthusedTV]

Glad you found your car! The Lucid Air and IX have very different philosophies and we're happy you ended up with the one that resonated with you.

[@salimahcumber3927]

I agree the local delivery team seems to have no clue what they are doing!

[@Mr.CEO888]

Is Lucid accepting trade ins? I can’t find the anywhere. Thanks.

[@KyleHubb]

There are no set times to clean the floor. You never know who came in with their kids and messed the place up, and they needed to clean it immediately. If you had seen their store dirty, wouldn't you still have complained?

[@AutoEnthusedTV]

I hope you watched the entire video because we did address thay

[@rodeo0808]

@@AutoEnthusedTVstill came across whiney. You have to watch the entire video to get to that part anyway. I can understand the gripe with the scuffs but you decided to get light colors where dirt will be 98% of the time. I hope you like detailing or you’ll be handing out shoe booties to all passengers.

[@Furious321]

@@rodeo0808 At least they do sell all-weather mats in every available interior color to match the Santa Cruz (this video), Tahoe, and Mojave schemes. Not much can be done about the lower door card, though.

Lucid air is very beautiful and luxury . But i can't afford it me poor lol

[@mluu510]

damn, how you affording this car?

[@kenkool2651]

Hi how is your experience with the lucid ??

[@kenkool2651]

I'm planning to purchase one but I'm still kinda hesitating because I'm just afraid if they are going out of business and the maintenance will be suck

[@wmalden]

I would prefer the front seats be the same light color as the rear seat. Can that be spec’d?

[@AutoEnthusedTV]

As far as we are aware of, Lucid currently doesn't have a trim that has the same light colored seats in the front.

[@MAGApepe]

nice,,, ya white always makes cars look better i think ,,, those pop off hubcaps are too funny haah

Where can I buy that car?

So Lucid finally delivers ! lol.. nice Now Elon will have to step up his game

[@rohanm2301]

Bro music is too louddd

[@LeoandTiger-h6m]

I was going to get this EV. Then I heard it has a lot of issues.

[@GET2222]

Good luck not bricking or getting any service at all. My neighbor sold his within 7 months. Beautiful car, but the software has got to get better. The transitions between screens is glitchy and unresponsive. For what you get it’s too small. Anyone coming from a TELLURIDE is going to think this car is money. Let me preface that I own 2 BMW X5Ms, Aston Martin, a Maserati, a Model X and two Mercedes. The MX Plaid is my favorite to drive and it has FSD. The last software was tight. I personally know the design firm, tolleson design, who built the LUCID brand.

[@AutoEnthusedTV]

Yee has had good experience so far with his Air and he is coming from Porsche/Tesla. Michael owns the Telluride and is excited with just about any car.

[@MasterJjt242]

Lol didnt offer drinks right away. get a grip lmfao

[@winstonbeckford785]

Would be very sad if Lucid goes, use the drive train somewhere else if that's the case.🤔

[@brianrguymon]

Lucid's drive train will be used in Aston Martin EV's

[@sakthishrajendran4264]

Maybe just me , to me the exterior does not look like a luxury car (150+k) . It’s more like a better looking compact car (better version of model 3). When You see a EQS , You can tell it’s a high end luxury car. The same feel I don’t get when I see Lucid.

[@rodeo0808]

The EQS is hideous, see how opinions work. The Lucid is hands down a better looking car (even with the ugly trunk body lines). Also the model 3 is ugly af and desperately needed that redesign.

[@patrickguev]

Love the review guys 👍 sharing all your vids on twitter! Are you guys on twitter ?

[@AutoEnthusedTV]

We are not on twitter but a share to the channel or video would be greatly appreciated :)

[@niceguy4u1000]

What I don't understand is why was your car in the show room where anyone can walk in and sit in your car? Your car should have been washed and ready for you in the service department waiting for your arrival. Even our 2021 Tesla Model Y and our 2023 Model X were washed and ready for us at the time of delivery.

[@AutoEnthusedTV]

The showroom wasn’t bad. It’s a good way to onboard new customers unfamiliar with the tech. The scuff mark was really the let down as it makes you feel like you’re picking up a rental 😬

[@tradingn9668]

4:59 omg 😑

[@AutoEnthusedTV]

😬

[@RobertSpiller]

People have no class or style today. I saw the thumbnail and I saw a beautiful car, so I clicked on it like thousands of people will, and in the first 1 minute I saw the interior with that computer just bolted on top of the dash board. That messes up the lines and smoothness of the car. It's so easy and looks better when you have a wrap around dashboard, or simple put the info system inside the dashboard. I see so many cars with the info system just bolted on top and it's going to stay that way until people start asking for a more smoother look. It's a beautiful car....I'll stick with an old buick.

[@AutoEnthusedTV]

Design will always be subjective but I think you should reserve judgement until you sit inside a Lucid Air. The design inside feels cohesive and complimentary to the exterior.

[@shekiba.646]

You need change your cloth nice. Show polite

[@bac3phi]

looks good. what will happen to the Lucid's owners after Lucid bankrupted?

[@AutoEnthusedTV]

No one knows what the future holds and I'm certain buyers of the Lucid Air have a more optimistic view.

[@zagato77904]

Oh, I thought they went bankrupt lol

[@AutoEnthusedTV]

They've recently partnered with Aston Martin to supply the electric motors for their vehicles. It sounds very promising!

[@GET2222]

@@AutoEnthusedTV kind of… Aston Martin makes a small amount and owned by Saudi’s. Aston also has a mountain of debt. LUCID is in the hands of the Saudis. Rawlingson can’t reign in spending. They are losing $550k per car and made fewer cars in Q2 from Q1. I wish them luck, I don’t want to see a world where only TESLAs own the road. However, Rawlingson doesn’t know how to lead an organization. If the Saudis don’t fund them again, they will go bankrupt. LUCID has 4,000+ of unsold inventory which is 293 days of inventory compared to sales. LUCID is a super high risk investment. I don’t see how they survive. Their CAPEX makes no sense. LUCID has been a long time and demand is dwindling when EV sales are sky rocketing. There is too much competition at this price point and no demand.
