Air Touring Questions

I’m one year in on a three-year lease with my 25 AT on 19s. I was curious if the community had some feedback or possible pointers on some observations I’ve had.

  1. After 13K miles, my lifetime efficiency is sitting at 3.73 mi/kwh, is that about right? 90% of the charging has been at home on level 2. I live in a hilly/coastal area with very mild weather most of the time. Mix of local highway and freeway driving.

  2. I’ve only done this about 4-5 times (Always just charge to 80% as a max), but when I’ve charged to 100% it feels like it loses the first 10% incredibly fast. It says it could run 420 miles, but it’s not even close. Overall, I think I could get maybe 330-340 miles going 100% to 0% SOC. I wish they could adjust the on-board predictions to something even close to accurate. I’ve never run it below 12% very rarely below 25%

  3. I’m noticing some creaking/ticking noises when turning the wheels when parked. This is new. I have to get over a big bump to get into my driveway (always go slow and at a 45 degree angle, have only hit bottom like once) so I’m worried that perhaps the suspension is starting to wear prematurely?

  4. I’m trying to stretch my next wheel replacement out until after this rainy season/winter. Just curious what people have experienced with the stock Pirellis and how long they’ve lasted with average use? I sometimes floor it on entrance ramps, but I’m generally not driving like a madman. What other tires do people like besides the Pirellis?

  5. I run the seat massagers constantly. Has anyone ever had them burn out or malfunction? I’m noticing the physical seat reclining buttons are getting a bit loose. I’m hoping things stay together, but have heard and seen some negative trends with the interior.

Overall, I have LOVED driving the car (albeit, not dealing with Lucid service) and want to keep the next 2 years going strong! Appreciate any advice and tips!
