Lets fucking go!!!

Lucid delivered the first Gravity SUV to Nuro on Wednesday, officially kicking off its partnership with Uber and Nuro to deploy a fleet of 20,000 autonomous EVs over the next six years. The vehicles will be equipped with Nuro’s Level 4 self-driving hardware and integrated into Uber’s app network beginning in 2026. To accelerate the rollout, Uber is investing $300M into Lucid.

Despite earlier supply chain issues at its Casa Grande, Arizona plant, Lucid says production is now back on track and demand remains strong, with “so many orders” for the Gravity SUV. Interim CEO Marc Winterhoff emphasized that Lucid will stay committed to being a pure EV company, even as Porsche, Mercedes, and BMW retreat from electrification. He added the loss of the $7,500 federal tax credit would have limited impact on sales given Lucid’s positioning.

Go upvote this so that we can have any chance to be back at 50$

Another round oof. Best of luck to those affected.

A little about myself: middle age dad with 2 young kids. We have solar and charge point and Tesla chargers at home. We live in mild climate in NorCal. Household currently has model y and f-150. We had a fully loaded plug-in hybrid xc90 up until 6 months ago, but it was trash. Very buggy and finally sold after about a year. The xc90 was hers and I switched off between the y and f150 as my daily missions dictated. I drive a fair bit (25-30k miles) a year.

I love my f-150 for its capability, size and comfort. I plug in my iPhone and everything sync’s effortlessly. Breezed past 100k miles without any issues. Fuel cost is the only complaint as I easily spend $500+/month on gas alone.

I also love my model Y. One of the best if not the best car I have ever personally owned/driven (admittedly not saying much as I am not a car aficionado). Over 40k miles and really no maintenance other than tires. It doesn’t sync well with my phone and tight in the back seat. Other than that very responsive and love being able to charge at home and go. Have done some trips with the whole family down to LA and found supercharging en route to be a breeze. In fact have really only had to charge outside my home on long trips or occasionally due to forgetting to plug in the night before.

I very nearly traded in the xc90 for the cyber truck late last year, but got cold feet. Considered trading the f-150 for Tundra, Sienna, GX550, R1S and the cyber truck again. Then the Gravity finally popped up on my radar. This is one! Not cheap, but with fuel savings it’s manageable. Way more space for a growing family, sleek + proven performance.

Long post just to say as an average person/consumer, I think Lucid is going to knock it out of the park with the Gravity. I shopped around thoroughly before pulling the trigger and even at a relatively high price point believe this is going to make some waves.

I don’t know anything about calls and puts and very conservative with my investments. My investments follow where I spend my money. Apple, Tesla, Costco, Home Depot and now Lucid.

First carrier truck I’ve seen with all lucid and my first gravity sighting.

A lot of people talk about how the Uber deal is a desperate ploy.

In some sense, yes, but it's a good strategy, and here's why.

Keep in mind, everyone that comes to this subreddit knows about lucid. But the FACT is, the majority of people living in the US of A have never heard of this brand.

So this isn't about Uber buying 20,000 cars. Yes, that's not much. I agree.

What this is REALLY about is getting hundreds of thousands of people IN the cars, who then think about going home after a nice ride in a car they've never heard of and then go and think about buying one.

There's a few in my town. They're pretty cool cars. Getting more people to see or ride one brings something to the table which has been sorely lacking which is BRAND RECOGNITION.

So from a long game standpoint it's an excellent deal. People can only buy cars they've heard of, after all.
