REVEALING MY NEW CAR! GOING ALL OUT WITH THIS LUCID AIR GRAND TOURING

EV Channels Review

Dave reveals his new Lucid Air Grand Touring, a pre-owned 2022 model with 890 miles, purchased for $105,000. He opted for the Grand Touring trim for its extensive range (516 miles EPA, realistically low to mid-400s) and luxurious features like massaging seats, positioning it as the ultimate road tripper. While impressed by its smooth ride and powerful acceleration, especially at higher speeds, Dave notes it lacks the immediate, aggressive punch of his previous Model S Plaid. He highlights the car's sophisticated acceleration and comfortable ride, contrasting it with the nauseating initial thrust of some performance EVs. Key concerns mentioned include the lack of Apple CarPlay, the high cost of options like Dream Drive Pro ($10,000) and the Dolby Atmos sound system ($4,000), and the previous owner's multiple warranty repairs within the first 1000 miles. Despite these points and some negative online sentiment regarding Lucid's reliability, Dave is excited about the car's classy aesthetics and its potential for extensive road trips, especially with the included three years of free Electrify America charging.
