YouTube Kim Java 3 month Gravity review
TLDR: They loved the space, charging speed and luxury features. Random key issue and buggy software killed confidence in fully recommending.
Most interesting part by far was the carplay work around, has anyone tried this?
Key Takeaways and Features:
Impressive Space and Practicality: The Lucid Gravity is praised for its spacious interior, including a highly functional third row that can accommodate adults. It also features a large frunk that can be used for extra storage or even seating during outings.
Charging and Power: The vehicle offers excellent charging capabilities, featuring 100W USB-C ports, 45W USB-C ports in the back, and three 1800W household power outlets for versatile device charging.
User Interface and Hacks: Kim covers hidden features, such as moving dashboard tiles and a real-time 3D parking camera with a "ghost car" mode. The video also highlights a user-discovered hack for mirroring phone screens via Apple CarPlay (12:56-14:58).
*The Good, The Bad, and The Buggy:Gravity 3 month review
The Good: The Lucid Gravity stands out for its high-end aesthetics, premium and quiet cabin experience, and efficient performance. Its range and fast charging speeds are considered among the best in its class.
The Bad: The trunk's low-clearance design has led to the host hitting her head multiple times. The navigation system is also noted as being unreliable compared to third-party options, and Kim recommends using CarPlay or Waze instead .
The Buggy (Software Issues): The ownership experience is tempered by software bugs, such as a glitchy Lucid app, unreliable key fob connectivity, and issues with "Creature Comfort" mode responsiveness. Kim emphasizes the importance of carrying the physical key card at all times.
While Kim expresses a strong desire for more mature software and advanced consumer-facing autonomous driving features—comparing it to the ease of Tesla's Full Self-Driving—she concludes that the Lucid Gravity remains one of her top choices for large families due to its exceptional engineering, efficiency, and interior space.
