Lucid wanted to position themselves as the ultimate luxury in an EV world and for that they have to charge a lot more than any other automaker.

      @@redasthecolor I respect your opinion. We've both leased and bought 5 new EVs. My latest one was leased and probably will continue to lease because we value being the first driver. It's worth the extra money to us. However, many people think leasing gets you out of depreciation. It doesn't becasue the leasing company uses estimated market value when calculating payments.

    Pretty good video. A couple points- Atieva started out wanting to be a parts supplier to the big OEMs. They saw the EV revolution coming and naturally figured that GM, Ford, etc. would end up jumping on board. Atieva would be there ready to sell them validated EV components, but we all know what happened. The big OEMs dragged their feet and hoped EVs would just go away. They weren't going to build their own car until Rawlinson showed up.
    Next, Lucid's finances. Lucid is majority owned by the trillion dollar Saudi Public Investment Fund. It is part of that nations goal to build up a portfolio of businesses to diversify away from oil production. This is a good thing. The PIF is paying to build a car company with factories around the world, including in Saudi. Lucid already has one plant there and is building its second full size factory there. Lucid has vast cash on hand and the PIF's investment in Lucid so far is just a rounding error compared to their wealth.
    Finally, there is a lot of negative press about EVs today, much of it misleading. Lucid, like Every significant EV manufacturer, is seeing sales continue to increase this year. Only Tesla sales are down and may finish the year below 2023 numbers. In KBB's Q3 report the Lucid Air was outselling the Model S and every other luxury EV sedan. The Gravity SUV is being produced now and we will see our first look at Lucid's smaller car sometime late next year.

    Lucid LCID stock is up 47% in the last month since they announced start of production of the Lucid Gravity - a 7 seat three row SUV with an industry leading 450 miles of EPA range. Lucid will not go bankrupt like Fisker or Nikola as they are backed by the Saudi PIF and are part of their vision 2030 to bring auto manufacturing to Saudi Arabia. The Saudis own about 60% of Lucid and this is why Lucid has a manufacturing factory in Saudi Arabia AMP-2. The Gravity is going to be a huge success for Lucid as the American market wants large 3 row SUVs - and the Gravity will be the class leader in this segment because of it's world class leading tech.

    The biggest problem of lucid is that you can not get one outside US, and if you need servicing, it’s even worse than with Tesla, in Spain we have less than 10 service centers for Tesla and 0 for lucid. If you have a small crash getting the pieces will be a nightmare, and just don’t have to fix any of its electronics, as nobody will know how.

    Well, someone’s bias is showing here! The Saudi’s own this company, and the fact that you didn’t disclose that information right up front, puts you in the suspect pool of those who have some type of conflicted interest in seeing a company survive/succeed in an otherwise very competitive marketplace.
    So had you disclose that information, you would have preserved your credibility as a reviewer who’s not in anyway conflicted about the product/company, that they’re reviewing. It should be noted, that you didn’t show the lucid air beside a Tesla Model S, and so was that deliberate? Why did you avoided doing that, as it makes me question why?
    It is also disputable that this gentleman, Peter Rawlinson, was the chief architect or designer of the Tesla model S, as it’s reported, that he was not the chief designer, he did, however, notably worked on the design team at Tesla that came up with the design of the Tesla Model S, that I am currently driving today.
    So lucid is in financial trouble, and at some point, even the Saudi’s are going to start questioning it’s viability in the marketplace under current economic conditions, and at some point investors are going to also become weary of the fact that this company simply cannot make a profit for them, therefore, they too will start to move their money in another direction, and so unless this Company can come up with something that can compete with Tesla, they’ve got a problem don’t you think? Cheers 🥂

The Saudi Arabia company just recently invested 1.5B company and became major shareholder and that’s why I didn’t disclose that bc it’s very recent and it doesn’t change the fact that it’s still publicly traded company.

      @ So I have no interested in dissecting everything you said here, but if it wasn’t for the Saudi fund, lucid would already be a name nobody remembers, and it’s not about whether or not they got a good product, it just the wrong product that simply isn’t selling well in the marketplace. So are you an investor in lucid? Do you own the product?
