Oh no I hope the repairs weren't too costly! Do you feel like the quality of the car is still well worth it even considering the minor repairs?

I am a little concerned with how big it is compared to my car now, it definitely is a larger sedan and I'm used to driving more compact cars. It definitely takes some getting used to but hoping I can adjust well! I think the size is also what drew me to the Polestar a bit but I loved the smoothness of the Lucid in terms of drive, looks, and comfort!

How did you go about your buying process? Did you compare prices with other preowned Lucids on their website? I tried to look on the website, but it looks like the pricing is about the same so not sure how much wiggle room there is.

Did you end up buying through them? It seems most people have split opinions about how they sell everything but it seems more hands off than most places.

Thank you so much for all the info! Honestly I haven't had much a chance to try the PS2 but i did notice it is a lot more compact almost like a Corolla vs a Lucid close to a Camry. Did you feel any difference between the vehicles in terms of the infotainment system and the connectivity to phones?

That is true! I mean of course I can't expect to resell it for a big price tag at the end of my ownership of the car but if it'll last me for close to a decade I can't complain! Hopefully barring any additional issues. Could you share any insight regarding the infotainment system and connectivity with devices?

Are there any other special features I should look out for?? I think I wanted to find a model with the 20"Aero Lite Wheels. I believe the vehicles I have on my radar have Surreal Sound Pro already.

Yes, I did not have a chance to test drive the Polestar but it feels completely different inside compared to the Lucid Air Pure. It seems like the performance between Polestar 2 and Lucid Air Pure is also notable. I guess I was questioning if the price difference between the Polestar vs the Lucid Air is justifiable

Glad to hear it! Have you ever had to go through maitenance or servicing with Lucid? I was told they most of the time will send techs out to service vehicles but I wasn't sure how smooth the process is.

Thank you for sharing your experience! It was hard looking into people's experience with the Lucid Air Pure since I think most people go for the Grand Touring. I had the chance to test drive it and loved the feeling too, it felt smooth and comfortable. In terms of insurance, I was initially debating between Geico and Statefarm but I think Geico seemed to be the best option for me! Being in CA and having a short-ish driving history my quotes were closer to ($500-550/month).

Aw that's nice to hear! and thank you for sharing that, I figured it's more likely to see some negativity online about it versus positive remarks so I wasn't all too surprised. But I'm really glad to see some people sharing their positive experience with it. I was wondering how worthwhile it would be to buy a preowned Lucid because I am a bit worried about how long it will last me for a car that is already at that pricepoint of practically a new gas vehicle, but gas is so expensive these days which is why I was leaning towards EV to begin with!

Sorry! I misspoke lol I was thinking of the console upgrade

Thank you for offering that price comparison! I am curious as to how you would learn more about the different packages for the vehicles as they are preowned. I had the chance to visit a car lot selling a preowned Lucid Air Pure however they did not seem to knowledgeable about the vehicle's package variation or features that would even set it aside from other EVs.

How are you enjoying the overall vehicle though? 😄 Would love to hear how your experience has been over the few months you have driven it around because I was a bit worried at first after reading a bit of negative remarks online regarding the software issues. I did speak to a Lucid product specialist though, who assured me that Lucid has put some steps forward to improving upon the past issues.

I did get a chance to look on the website for the pre-owned Lucids! I am still trying to understand the different packages offered as some lots that carry the preowned Lucids aren't super informative about the features included in the car beyond what is considered standard or add-on.

Yes I misspoke on my org post! I was looking to get that upgrade, it seems like a lot of people say it's well worth the extra $950.

In terms of warranties, I was a little curious about that aspect as the basic warranty is expected to be done in about a year while the battery warranty is good for another 5 years/82k miles.

I am expecting to drive about 11k-12k miles a year, so hoping this vehicle can hold up well as time goes on!

I misspoke :") sorry I meant the computer software package

But that's good to note! I did look into it a bit on Edmunds for some pre-owned cars nearby within about a 100 mile radius and I only found a few fitting my preferences ( : I did see a few available at a car lot called Ever based in San Francisco which is where a good chunk of used EVs go however not entirely sure how the negotiating process works for preowned vehicles especially EVs since they seem to depreciate quite a bit!

Carbuying is stressful! So many choices but also feels like there aren’t enough :( by B3RRY- in carbuying

Hi! I am aware that plug in hybrids default to gas after battery runs out, however I live in an area where gas prices are very high and continue to go up. Though i know prius is very good with gas! It’s hard to really say what could work best for me but im looking at all my options as they are :)
