LUCID GRAVITY ROADTRIP - KEY WEST TO NYC - 1440 MILES - CAR CAMPING

EV Channels Review

This video chronicles an extensive 1440-mile road trip from Key West to New York City in the Lucid Gravity, undertaken immediately after a demanding EV race. The reviewer provides a candid, albeit tired, account of the journey, focusing on real-world charging experiences, energy consumption, and the practicalities of long-distance EV travel. Key highlights include utilizing a mix of Tesla Superchargers and higher-speed Mercedes-Benz chargers, with the latter offering faster charging but at a higher cost. The reviewer also details an overnight 'car camping' experience in the Gravity, noting its comfort for sleeping. A recurring theme is the car's navigation system's initial calculation of state-of-charge, which appears to be front-loaded and corrects itself over longer distances. A peculiar AC issue causing clammy hands is also mentioned as a potential general Gravity concern. Despite the fatigue and some minor glitches like the navigation system, the Gravity proves to be a reliable companion for this epic journey.
