[@savagegeese]

Keep up the good fight! Thanks for your work.

[@tralala8980]

Thanks to both of you. Now I dream of driving this car! --- Sorry, long read ahead: What I like about Lucid after watching this well-done piece of infotainment: It is not about perfection, but perfection as a tool for feelings! The car feels very roomy, calm, stable, yet fun to drive. And sometimes” you feel like a hero!” The idea comes from Esther Unti (1:04:55.) “We can lean more on the systems that are smooth, seamless don’t know they are there. Just to make you feel like a hero.” And Lucid nailed the hero feeling, according to Jason Cammisa (Hagerty) in his road trip conversation with Jason Freke (Engineering Explained), both on YT. kzbin.info/www/bejne/jJrEaGOZbdeChbsfeature=shared&t=1463 In Min 24:23, both speak of “Hero Mode” after their time on the tracks. Could be talking point of Lucid, but the way they talked about it… what a compliment to the Lucid team around Esther Unti and John Culliton! And the way Lucid shifted from Bosch controlling system to recreate some effects with the inherent qualities of their own systems to achieve this feeling is elegant and well explained! Biggest “Wow” moment in this video: JC Monnet not only talking about aero in sedans as a negative drag but as a positive control mechanism in high-speed stability. That was beautiful, I could imagine the down force so well. Making people see air is an amazing talent! And Lucid’s dedication to curve the end of the battery pack to get more of a controlling down flow is wonderful! Since Lucid does not seem to have a slogan, here are some cheesy ones. “Lucid - like a hero” “Lucid - drive like a hero” “Sapphire - engineered like a hero” Thanks for the good times booth of you!

C8 Z06 vs Lucid, Lucid smokes the Z06 in the straight away the first race, holds its own in the second race with the Z06 after they switch drivers, but by the time they've slowed down and navigated the turn and are coming back out of it to punch it back down the 1/4 mile to the starting line again bye-bye lucid!! 😂 kzbin.info/www/bejne/i3SnqHyIeL2XsJYsi=3pmAztvTsb_u2otX

Having the range to tour comfortably combined with the car's enthusiasm for play once I find a good road truly sets the Lucid apart. With "only" 816hp the GT has more thrust than most drivers will ever use. Even the base model Lucid, 1/3 the price of the Sapphire, has that amazing suspension geometry.

[@AwesomeBob]

When I first heard about a 90 minute Savagegeese video, I had mixed feelings. I was worried about lengthy and boring interviews with boring people. But these were _my_ people. They reminded me of numerous start-ups I've worked at in Silicon Valley, where Lucid is also headquartered. I was super engaged by how passionate and thoughtful these interview responses were and greatly appreciate the attention to detail Lucid has paid both in the thoughtful design & engineering of their Saphire Air, but also their processes and methodologies to make not the best electric car they can today, but also set themselves up for success in the future by ensuring tight collaboration of their multiple in-house departments and feedback loops throughout each iteration. That's not just how you build a great car. That's how you start-up a great company. Super stoked to see where Lucid is in 5-10 years! Also, Mark and Jack's enthusiasm in the beginning of the video caught me completely off-guard. Looking forward to more of these, provided other companies are brave-enough to launch their products in a similarly unique and insightful way for Savagegeese to review!

[@savagegeese]

I dont see many brands extending themselves to this level but its a great example of what happens when you do. This is all assuming the end product is good. In this case its great to be surprised and delighted by people, idealogy and of course the car.

[@AwesomeBob]

@@savagegeese automotive brands, for sure. Most start-ups in Silicon Valley that are trying to “disrupt” a well established industry often miss the mark. But it seems this CEO not only hired the right talent, but also effectively communicated a vision for where they want to be, established and protected the right culture of innovation and collaboration, and properly resourced, supported and shielded these teams from all of the realities of working in this industry that can force the wrong compromises to pollute the product vs intelligently engineering and designing in the correct ones.

Its a tough sell. Tesla can do most of this for much cheaper, has the scale and dealership network for maintenance. If you want to go fast, you get the Plaid.. anyone really gonna spend 100k more for a Sapphire when its not that much faster in a straight line? I mean a plaid already does 9's... an extra tenth or two or better driving dynamics probably just isnt enough. You take this down to like $160, $170, theres probably a better market there. If you're spending $250k, you're probably looking for a 'toy'/fun car.. people want exotic looks/badge/experience/collectibility.

As an engineering student, I cannot list the amount of things that makes me literally jump for joy. When I first saw people drag race this car, I completely wrote it off a a pure straight line thing similar to a tesla model s, and like that car, I was completely uninterested. Its crazy how there's not a SINGLE video on youtube that shows this car and the people behind it in any detail. As soon as I saw that the head of aero was an ex f1 aerodynamicist and started talking about the lack of induced drag on the underbody strakes, and that they supply the batteries for formula e, I couldnt stop thinking about what insane thing they are doing next. So fucking cool :D

I never liked the way Teslas look (just personal preference, it's up2u what you think) nor did I like their fanbase. It's good to see a company offer a proper rival product. I hope this makes things more exciting to come in the Electric Industry!

[@Uchejnr]

What do you mean by fan base?

[@skip741x3]

Jack's time behind the wheel was hilarious! I can imagine the lucid guys watching this vid afterwards and what they must be thinking.

[@mehdimadani3672]

I am living in Europe, i just discover you're vidéo and i can say it you deserve an oscar ! Congratulation for your work and your analyse

[@milkacj5788]

In a time when vehicle reviewers are moving to more short form content, you guys are going against the grain and putting up this 1h plus beautifully shot and produced documentary. This is truly the thinking man’s car review channel.

[@jerrywarren2007]

Glad to see a video of a car that you are having fun with. I have had my GT-Performance version for a year now and it is wonderful. The Sapphire won't make them the money they have to have to grow but hopefully the Gravity and what comes after it will be well received.

[@xkc9689]

If Lucid could present their car this well they wouldn’t be broke, if I were Lucid I would post this on my socials

[@ve7hhs]

Off the charts production quality. Puts broadcasters to shame. Exceptional work guys.

[@perrymike15]

Keep up the good work guys. I cant not toss a few bucks back for this production, it's outstanding.

[@keithrobertson2401]

Also fastest depreciating sedan on the planet! Cheers 🍻

[@probablypondering1657]

I almost take for granted that a channel gets such great access to a manufacturer. Top tier content right here. If I could actually afford this car this video would be everything

[@mikewaite3746]

THESE TWO ALONG WITH THEIR PERSONALITY HAVE TAKEN AUTOMOTIVE JOURNALISM TO THE NEXT LEVEL! FANTASTIC JOB!

[@gtronin2631]

Amazing work as usual by the Geese, and quite the achievement in engineering with the Lucid Sapphire. I just wish I could be excited for this as a automotive enthusiast, but I love the combustion engine, the sounds the feeling of torque building. Modifying components for different sounds and improvements in power, maybe I'll be able to settle for hybird supercars in the future.

[@ismaeldah6512]

Learning and hearing directly from all the people involved in making that engineering masterpiece, and how it came to be what it was a bit of an eye opener. It’s usually all about straight line speed but Lucid somehow seems so different, unique, and full of character despite being an EV. This documentary was really a breath of fresh air so Thank you Savage Geese and everyone involved in the project for making this documentary possible.

[@_Makanko_]

Savagegeese has outdone themselves. Massive thanks to Lucid for providing so much support that allows this masterful production. I had to plan a moment to watch this because I wanted to be able to really enjoy this lengthy semi-documentary. I proudly support your content. Thank you!

[@Calmada01]

Patreon support as well, but this deserves more than that. Thank you!

[@svgPhoenix]

These feature length interviews with the engineers are what really get me excited about cars. Learning about the complicated decisions behind every little detail can really make you fall in love when the engineers show this level of dedication and passion for their project.

[@joemartino6976]

0 to 100 mph in 4 seconds. I'm old enough to remember when the 427 Shelby Cobra was advertised as being able to go zero to 100mph and back to zero again in 14 seconds. That seemed unbeatable at the time. By the way, great review, and glad to see you both made it out in one piece and apparently unharmed.

[@benjaminsmith2287]

I just think that's too fast for most humans to use. It's to the point where that type of acceleration is uncomfortable.

[@alpenfoxvideo7255]

[@rickgartner3621]

Faith in the future of automotive mostly restored. Thanks Lucid, but above all, thanks Savagegeese for this incredible documentary!

[@dowroa]

Sorry I haven't had enough time to watch this yet, but any 1hr 30min, in-depth, well-shot video deserves at least some payback. Thank you.

[@jbierh9258]

This videos confirms that you are waaaaaay ahead of any other cars channel. You are a car extravaganza team that really loves cars and cares about good technology in this industry and others, people will never forget that smart bidet toilet seat review 👏👏

[@sandweiler4640]

There is a great combination here: the passion of a team perfectly blended with your passion for automotive narration and high quality journalism. Extremely rare achievement to reach such a level. Hats off! Thank you so much.

[@teaw5706]

I rarely comment on videos but feel the need to after watching this masterpiece. Savagegeese are top of the game. Period. They capture me on every video and I will never stop watching them.

[@Brytelyte-nj4pk]

This pair understand what a car is or should be, film making and can actually drive. Lucid was lucky to have them do this documentary.

[@2006gtobob]

Quite literally, I live up the road in Maricopa from their factory in Casa Grande. I see the cars quite routinely now. The cars are MASTERPIECES just to look at. Stunningly beautiful. It's just one of those designs that snaps my neck in the direction of the car, wherever it is. I never thought a sedan would have that effect on me. When I retire from my NW Indiana job in 4 years, I want to work for them in any capacity.

[@evildrizzt1]

I have no idea how this channel hasn’t hit a million subs yet.

[@egs2169]

Doing an obvious infomercial doesn’t help

[@colin-nekritz]

@@egs2169that whooshing sound is the reason they stated for making this video in the first place, and the clear showing everyone you're new here and have never watched any of their other in-depth videos. Go back to giving your views to Doug Demuro while he continues to grift people and ruin the price of cars by his intentional gaming the used car market

[@Chitu_8]

Huge props to Lucid team for creating this car!! Mark and Jack, you guys have knocked this one out of the park!!!

[@ownedtoomanycars]

The production quality of your videos is always above the other channels, but this is next level. The cut away screens, the 4k quality, the lighting, all amazing. The depth of the content is always so far ahead as well. never change!

[@markweedon5678]

Took me nearly a month to get through it all. But what a gem it is! Did keep on coming back. Will watch it again some time. Thanks again SG!

[@bcrandeis]

Mark and Jack, I just watched this from start to finish. What a fantastic piece and how refreshing to hear how much you guys liked the Sapphire. Knowing nothing previously about Lucid, I am definitely a fan and rooting for them now. Awesome work as usual, guys. Thank you!

[@GOD999MODE]

Highest quality, most in-depth, technical car review channel on the internet. Every video is like a cinematic documentary experience.

[@SR3TG119]

You guys should do a regular segment called ‘off the leash’, where Mark lets Jack just run buck wild while yelling stellantis sucks! Lmao

[@tonyvu9459]

More silverback jack!

[@vladberbece]

Little bit late but thank you for this fantastic documentary on Lucid. Here's a small contribution to help offset the tremendous amount of effort I'm sure went into this piece. Can't wait for the next one. Nobody does it like you do.

[@neilrosenberg4437]

Incredibly made video. Great job Jack and Mark. Lucid has great tech , engineering and brand marketing to the EV nerds. Feels like an uphill battle until they can get more competitively priced options and their SUV to market.

[@SrikanthSivaramakrishnan]

What a masterpiece of automotive journalism. Amazing work by Mark and Silverback Jack
