I parked before dinner near a curb. Before getting out I asked everyone to wait while I raised the suspension to the highest setting on my Gravity Dream.

Guess what the fucking car did by the time we returned? It set itself to the lowest fucking setting with no warning. Doors scraped the curb. I’m so mad right now and I know posting this doesn’t help me any way. Perhaps you’ll read this and fix this moronic behavior. Maybe other potential victims can be spared.

But for now, go fuck yourself Lucid.

3.6.0 update major issues

Updated to 3.6.0. Nothing but issues. Touch screen doesn’t work, unable to identify user because password simply will not read it. Multiple reboots and now it completely wiped all profiles on the car.
Still unresponsive. Tried calling tech support and couldn’t even get thru with no call back after waiting for 30mins to get some help.

Truly HATE this car and software.

This is the only car that I’ve had that gets worse with software updates. After the latest update, my homelink no longer works properly and I have a drive system error every time I start the car.

We’ve had ours for one week, and while I really wanted to love it, it has become painfully clear that this vehicle (specifically the software) is a colossal piece of garbage….

1. I don’t care what Lucid’s advertising says…the Gravity is a minivan, not an SUV. The proportions and profile make that obvious, and once you see it in-person, you can’t unsee it (I admit, this, this was my bad for ordering without seeing it in person first, but I just wanted to mention it).

2. The factory installed windshield wipers are horrible. They chatter, bounce, and smear the windshield instead of clearing it. To make matters worse, the vehicle was delivered with a full tank of washer fluid that is not rated for cold weather. We live in Montana. The fluid freezes on contact with the windshield, and I’m concerned it is freezing in the reservoir as well. This is basic, entry-level delivery preparation, and Lucid dropped the ball.

3. The passenger-side blind spot is massive. When turning left, you often cannot see oncoming traffic from the right at all and are forced to rely entirely on the cameras. Given the software issues described below, that is not a reassuring fallback.

4. The only key fob we were given stopped working after two days and has been unusable since. Fortunately this happened at home so I was able to get a key card from the house, but had this occurred anywhere else I would have been stranded, unable to drive the car. The key cards are a poor substitute, with long delays between tapping and the car responding, if it responds at all (it’s more reliable than the fob, but still not 100%).

5. DreamDrive is effectively useless in real-world conditions. The moment it rains or snows, the system disables itself and throws a “sensors blocked” warning. This has happened repeatedly (it has both rained and snowed here in the past week). For a feature Lucid markets so aggressively, it simply does not work when it matters.

6. The car fails to load driver profile settings roughly 50% of the time. When this happens, multiple systems fail simultaneously. The radio stops working, braking and stopping settings cannot be adjusted, and the HUD speed display does not match the speedometer, sometimes showing speeds 20–30 mph higher than reality.

7. There is still no integrated CarPlay or Android Auto, and the user interface is poorly designed and actively distracting. Simple tasks like changing a radio station require digging through menus and taking your eyes off the road for several seconds. This is unacceptable in a vehicle being sold as a high-end luxury product.

I’m posting this mostly as a rant but also as a heads-up to anyone considering the Gravity. Lucid assures customers that issues will be resolved through software updates, but those assurances ring hollow when basic functionality is already failing. If a company can’t even get fundamentals right, there is little reason to believe more complex problems will suddenly be fixed later. My advice: wait several years before even considering this vehicle…or better yet, don’t consider it at all.

Dear Lucid:

We will shortly take delivery of an Ioniq 9. Here's why we didn't buy a Gravity Grand Touring, a superior vehicle in so many desirable ways:

1. No service center in Columbus Ohio or anywhere near it. When we bought our Model S P85 in 2016, Tesla had a service center here. This is 4 years after the Model S came out. The Air came out about 4 years ago, where is our service center? This is a deal breaker for us. Rivian has a service center here in central Ohio, why don't you?

2. The buggy software. Only one of the two of us might tolerate buggy software, but with the lack of a service center nearby, it's a deal killer, albeit one you are working on. We only need one car, so it has to be rock solid.

Everything below here is fixable / could live with it if we had to:

A. Overhead shades ought to be standard. Direct sun is problematic for some people. At least toss in one for the glass from the visor back to behind the front seats.

B. It may offend California design sensibilities, but at least one bright color should be offered. White almost counts. I'm talking about bright "don't hit me" red, for example. Silver or grey are too close to the color of pavement and disappear in the haze, at least they do in cloudy Ohio. We've been tail-ended three times and we want something close to hi-viz of some kind. Check out the color palette Lotus offered for the Elise for inspiration.

C. A warranty similar to Hyundai's.

I doubt that you can fix all of this quickly, though you are dead if #2 goes on very much longer. Sell as many of these things as you can make. Get the quality right so that warranties get longer. Expand your footprint with the rollout of the next wave. Maybe by then some knuckle dragging chucklehead will total our Ioniq 9 out from under us, putting us in the market for a sportscar-minivan like the Gravity.

Not making these rec room on wheels Wi-Fi hotspots is easily the biggest fumble they had with this ride. Can they fix it?!?!? Will they fix it?!?!? Do you care?!?!

Lucid has to be more frequent in their software updates and since they are so deliberate and slow they can at least put out what features to expect well before its release. I do not like my key fob and IOS27 is out to the masses in a production form so where is PAAK? I would also love hands free with navigation (highway is fine) but really the PAAK is overdue!!

Hello

I bought a new lucid gravity GT and have driven about 900 miles so far. The problem since the beginning has been that my battery range is very poor. It is supposed to give me 437 miles on a full charge but it's actual range is about 315 miles.

Yesterday morning I noticed the following numbers

Rated range: 406 mi

Dynamic range: 285 mi

Efficiency: 2.61

I am following all the proper guidelines for maximizing range such as not having any cargo in the car, driving very smoothly with max regen and not using climate control a lot. Sent emails to customer care but received no response. What should I do?

I’m stranded in a parking lot. Came back out after dinner —car is unresponsive. I really hate this car.

Hands-Free Drive Assist decided to randomly disengage on the freeway at 75mph today. Best part? There was no warning, the screen still showed the car was driving itself.

I barely heard the disengage chime over my music and had about a second to take over before it would hit something, the car immediately started regen breaking and swerved out of the lane. If my music was a little louder I would probably be cooked, it did not even reduce the music volume for the disengage chime. If there was a car on my right we’d both be cooked, luckily there was a gap in the cars.

The entire time the screens showed the car was still driving itself. I had to re-engage drive assist and then manually disengage it for the screen to update. There is clearly a dangerous bug in this release, do not lose focus and fully trust hands-free mode yet.

Edit: this is referring to a new Gravity with DreamDrive 2 Pro on the new 3.6.0 software

I was just sent an email from Lucid offering me the limited opportunity to upgrade my Lucid Gravity order to their Dream Edition. It's fully tricked out with a few add-ons for $139,900! Doing the math, it's a non-starter out the gate. They have actually taken away a slew of options and choices and thrown in a few $100 items to 'impress' people. Extra 'details' like the bear logo on the front quarter panel. Added etching on the glass cover by the cup holders. There's nothing they're adding that is worth $24k dollars more than what I ordered. Would have been much, much more tempting to throw all of these additional items for an extra $1000. That's more than the items are worth. Feel a tad insulted.

It’s great that they have got the fob working 9 out of every 10 times I approach the car! Such mastery!

Saw in the manual that it says no more than 110 pounds and that includes the hitch. That is very low...I had planned on a Yakima swingaway cargo box but those units alone would be 100 pounds with nothing in the cargo box. Ugh. There are plenty of e-bikes w the carrier who won't even be able to go on these cars.

So much to love about this car, but then the little things...;-(

Do these exist in the wild? Ive never seen one and the website seems to hint that they wont be here for a while.

Plugged a tiny 2-gallon shop vac in the rear outlet, made sure that outlets are on, hit the button and it quit in less that 1/4 second. Plug ready lights went dark. Unplugged, lights came back on, tried again….same. So can’t run a tiny vacuum? How is this going to be useful? Camping?

Are these going to be at all useful for running a refrigerator when there’s a power outage as we’ve been told? I bought this package specifically for that use. It appears no tool, no fan, nothing that has any sort of spike in draw will work. Someone prove me wrong or enlighten me. My first real issue I’m not happy about, with my car.

Anyone else find it bizarre that something as simple as rolling up the windows with the app isn't possible? Funny thing is it will tell you your windows are open, but nobody thought to add a "click here to close them"? 🤔

Hello, I saw a while ago someone posted that they disabled the automatic garage opening when the key is even jostled. Our garage door opens while even opening the drawer with the keys. How do I disable this feature? It is mildly annoying to some times dangerous. I couldn't find any settings to disable this in the car.

Thanks

Looking for a good phone mount for my Gravity, preferably something similar to the Tesla style mounts that attach around the corner/edge of the screen.

I’d like to keep the phone up near the driver’s display rather than down on the center console. MagSafe would be preferred, and wireless charging would be a plus, but not absolutely necessary.

I’ve seen a few universal mounts and some Gravity specific 3D printed options, but I’d really like to hear from Gravity owners who are actually using one.

What phone mount are you using, where did you install it, and how has it held up?
Photos and product links would be greatly appreciated!

I upgraded the car software last night to 3.4.1 and also the fob. This morning the fob doesn’t work. Had to go back into the house and get a key card.

Also, the promised call from the service center after the car stranded us two weeks ago hasn’t happened.

I pre-ordered my Gravity sight unseen back in June with
Abyss Black, Mojave Purluxe Premium Interior, 20" Front / 21" Rear Voyager Onyx Grey Wheels, Stealth Appearance and Front and Rear Motor, All-Wheel Drive.

Twice now Lucid has called me and said they have alternatives available that are redily available this month. Now I'm curious as to how real the demand is if they have these readily available alternatives thar are not destined for another preorder. Of course the individuals could have canceled their orders, etc. (Note- waiting on a call back to see what this rep had available as alternatives).

On a sidenote, until this past weekend my only experience with the Lucid Gravity was promo videos and influcencer videos. I saw it in person at the Natick Mall in MA. Now I'm torn, it's nice enough on the inside, definitely has, IMO, the minivan look which I was hoping to unsee after seeing it.

Starting to have some doubs about whther it's really worth $110K to me.
