I wish Tesla stepped up their interior. The model 3 highland is cool. But it’s nowhere near luxury feeling. I have a Tesla model y. And it’s great. But it’s absolutely not a luxury vehicle. It’s a pretty standard and minimalist interior. But to call it luxury is reaching

Yeah all that Saudi blood money goes a long way. Too bad, as they seem pretty nice otherwise.

@@HenryBabcock true that.

​@@HenryBabcockYeah but who cares ? This is about the car.

@@iannealcole I use Google, out of necessity. The rest of those things, no, or almost never. It's about minimizing negative impact.

Hahahaha. Foreal tho

LCID stock is at about 4,30$, so it doesn’t look great for them. Anyone, with enough funds and time can make a great car, and lucid definitely make some great cars. Selling them at a profit is a different thing, and that’s where I see the problem for lucid. Still, I want them to succeed.

Wow all that storage!

i was suprised when i see how much storage is in the boot

yup: lucidmotors.com/media/document/CR22-0232_CarPlay-Launch.pdf

who needs apple carplay :D carplay was invented for dumb cars!

I wish mkbhd would tag what phone he filmed it on.

I'm excited about the millage on it, hopefully lower price car start bumping their range

@@Hi-how-are-you-today. I have a feeling he used a camera here just based on how unstable the footage looked at times.

Well it kinda looks like a minivan

@@NYCybertruckit works tho

​@@NYCybertruckWhich are extremely practical. Now let's get vehicles like this down to $40K with at least 300 miles of range. Still waiting for my affordable electric minivan or 3-row SUV. Don't care if it's Chinese.

People will do anything but buy a minivan

@@thunderb00mBut this is a minivan, no doubt. That's not a bad thing. People are lining up to by the VW Buzz. We might be at the dawn of a new age, the resurgence of the cool van, like in the 60's and 70's.

I just wish they'd let me give them money...I want one as soon as possible.

Yes they are up to a bankruptcy

They better come up with an EV that most people can afford or they won’t survive.

Call Roto-Rooter to root for them!

@ronniemullis8717 You're saying Bentley, Rolls Royce, Lamborghini, Bugatti, Koenigsegg, Ferrari, and all those expensive cars can't survive?@@ronniemullis8717

I'm not. They're owned by fkin Saudi Arabia

LCID to $ - 99.

Yeah, I wish them well. they have some amazing engineering

They will make it. Confirmed shipping by end of next year.

In this economy, hope they can be more competitive.

You realize they are owned by saudi Arabia, right?

You are right, the Gravity will allow APC to run on their infotainment system.

Pretty sure my Honda minivan could do that...

@@dbrowdyPrecisely, and I’ve wanted an EV Honda Odyssey for years. That’s the point! So I’m definitely trading in my Model S Plaid for this when it comes 😂.

@@dbrowdy is your minivan electric?

They actually may have made one of the best electric cars on the market now 😭 This thing is gorgeous and is true luxury unlike Tesla

@@iHeartTuesdays Define true versus fake luxury???

Apple car play? WGAF. There's lots of other reasons to love/hate this car.

Teslas dont either. CarPlay is only a thing in shotty setups. Which is every backwards thinking car company….ie ill totally buy a Chevy with android built in. My Hyundai needs CarPlay.

@@CupidStunt-fs7ie Build quality, use of materials, etc. This is rivaling a traditional German automaker compared to Tesla S/X which feels cheaper and utilitarian for its price range

As a minivan owner, I recognize this for the minivan it is. I'll definitely take a look, as I think a EV minivan is the Holy Grail of city driving.

Have a look at the Volvo EM90 as well

​@@johnnymeans356at 440 mile range, this goes quite a bit further than city range

If anyone manage to buy one of these for under 120k, I'll eat my pants

@@MrArcticPOWER true, very true

It is not gorgeous. That fin is ugly.

Probably used the experience from the Sedan to drive improvements to this. I think if they started with this, it wouldn't have been so refined.

Starting with a luxury sport sedan is way better for their brand image than starting with an SUV lol

yeah and they probably 'can' afford to make some mistakes in the sedan area, not with suvs@@thatoneguy23467

Their original intentions were to 1up Tesla, and at the time, Tesla's flagship was the Model S and Roadster. But now they can venture off into other things.

Changing RGB lights like on PC’s?

Would lucid make it earler than late 24 ? why the sun-shade not lokated in different part ( which block the glass roof look if you understand what i mean , whould also that improve ?

What was the decision reasoning on the sun visors being suctioned the way they are for the front seats? The Model X has been compared to the Gravity a lot, but the visors for the X are mounted to the A-pillar along the headliner. Was there regulation or design philosophy reasons? Additionally, the 5/6-seat Gravity, 4-seat Air, and frunk without the seat cushion have all yet to be seen. Is the frunk incomplete on the model cars? Are the captains chair options going to come out at all, or just in China? I've also been wondering what will happen to the Air when it's time for a refresh, such as, will it get ClearView Cockpit? And what's the story for HighwayPilot? Will it be like AutoPilot FSD from Tesla? Or Highway only? Do the Air and gravity share the same sensor suite, or does the Gravity have more Ultrasonic sensors to compensate for the larger body? Sorry for asking so many questions, but I've never been able to ask things like this to an employee before. Thanks Mr. Rolando, hope you can shed some light.

@jacobfavreault4067 I doubt he will even answer one of your questions since employees are not allowed to be talking about these things in depth outside the company. The reason why they cannot copy Model X sun visors is simple, There is this thing called a PATENT that cannot be copied to the Gravity and laws require you have a sun visor no matter what in a car just like the headlights + taillights with a steering wheel.

​@@fayewong21I doubt they can patent the method of delivering the visor, it's too broad. Throttle House speculated it might be regulations or law changes, but Tesla is still making them with the A-pillar-mounted visors

Can you see a rockchip breaking half the roofline or we just cosplaying yeti mug ownership

Loocid looses Profits on EVERY Vehicle it sells, also has DEMAND problem.

Or the rear end/tailgate!

Insurance rider

Honestly the person who can afford this prob can afford to replace the windshield anyway

Tbh most SUV’s are minivans these days They don’t have any capability as such

​@superior7387 Agree with the capability part, but many tend to prefer the boxier profile of an suv over a minivan aesthetically

I feel like a lot of people secretly want a minivan but will never admit it. Companies are just giving people what they want while being extra carful not to use the word "minivan".

​@@elliottcarson1248I agree

@@superior7387 Exactly. Every crossover is a minivan with swing doors.

If you have a Palisade, then probably the smoothest transition to you will be the EV9 when it comes out soon.

Indeed@@alex21390, though I'm going to wait for the Ioniq 7 to be announced. I planned to buy the Telluride until I went and drove a Palisade and liked it better, so I want to see Hyundai's version of the 3-row EV before making a decision

That's a deal!

I got a used Bolt a couple years ago for $22,000. Been a pleasure to own, and extremely inexpensive to run! The 50KW charging is a little slow though, gotta admit

@@dawsongooch4194 Check out a new video from Battery Blade. He bought a 2019 Bolt EV with a little over 13 thousand miles on it and a brand new battery. It's virtually a new car.

If they up the charger tech I'd probably trade in for one! @@dawsongooch4194

Bolts are underrated for sure.

Seems like pixel

Also the camera overheating for 20min was pretty rough

You can check around 5:50 that it's a camera and not a phone.@@techsokar9680

@@dtemp132 true, let’s wait till he reveals

I thought I was the only one who thought the camera was being annoying. It was making me sick

i'm sure there will be 3rd party or Lucid branded sunshade accessories available for it at a reasonable price, so that you can have the best of both worlds.

I think they’ll make the cheaper trims non class variant. You better buy it if that’s the case ;)

Tons of Tesla cars in Arizona with glass roof, you get zero heat and little light through there. Drove mine for past 3 years and zero issues. I forget that I have it most of the time.

This loos like a winner

"most people". Most people can't afford these cars 😂😂

@@xxstealerxx most people *who can afford this price range , and is in the market for a family sized SUV will have this on top of their list

@@Matticitt All the Auto Focus videos are shot on mobiles.

@@Huskie_BOSG With how bad the footage is. I guess it might be a SONY phone or Pixel. iPhone footage should look CRISP. Can't be iPhone or Samsung.

A new company selling cars for 100k+ has no choice but to listen.

Tesla was expensive too at the start.

​@censoredcheese they were also really the only ones in the EV space. Now there's tons of companies, thud why price matters.

Company will likely implode in a year. You probably have nothing to worry about. You also will have Tesla cybertruck sales to dilute Rivian as well. Id worry more about Tesla than Lucid as brandwise people know they are not stable as a company. Id never invest into that sort of situation.

@polysciwhy3247 Performance matters ... but looks are important too. This looks cool and elegant where the Cybertruck is ugly and awkward as fk.

@@capecaution6288 its looks goofy where cybertruck looks elegant and radical. Good like with that.

Yes, Apple CarPlay wasn’t there first year, now it is included.

At 7:16 you can see that he actually using normal camera and not a phone

@@youdontknow4264 makes sense because this is not the regular video he makes, it's like a Lucid event or something so I imagine he wanted to look more professional with a real camera lol

Why would the sun being low be a problem???

@@jamesengland7461 You have evidently not been driving in northern states/countries; that means the sun would be glaring in your eyes for many, many more hours. Once the sun gets up on the horizon and above the windscreen/windshield it's no problem. But as I tried to describe; as the windshield goes much further up, you would get the sun in your eyes almost all day and as we are talking maybe 18 hours of daylight but with the sun relatively low on the horizon, you would have to wear a baseball cap to not get annoyed. In the US in the southern states the sun is practically straight up, 90° up, but far north it would be just above the sun visor midday. It may be difficult to understand but here in the north we often experience "sun curves", the sun when you get around a bend is exactly where you need to look to see the road and the cars Infront of you, but you can't as the sun is shining straight in your eyes. Even express motorways where the speed is 55 mph or higher the traffic needs to slow down to a crawl as you're literally blind because of the sun. This is a dangerous situation when it happens. Now imagine what will happen if the sun visor is below to do any good, but the sun is too low on the horizon to be covered by the roof of the car, get it?

There is that folding step thingy that would block most things from sliding to the edge and being a danger to falling out.

@@WARnTEA If that section that folds out could be made to stand vertically, that would solve the issue as I see it. Since it folds flat, it really doesn't appear to be able to block anything, that moved to the front of the frunk, from falling out.
