r/Gravity

see the title. I can understand the idea of systems 'breaking in,' but what exactly breaks in? is it just better at estimating range after 2000 miles? I'm really interested in the scientific explanation for this.

It is extremely disappointing to write this post . I leased a brand new Lucid Gravity 2026 in March of this year. I was super excited .

April 11 - the car's display lit up like a christmas tree - throwing all kinds of alerts:

* Drive with caution - Stability Control Unavailable
* DreamDrive Limited - Schedule Service
* Drive with caution - Speed limited to 35mph
* Use Brakes to Hold - Vehicle Hold Error, Schedule Service

The car got towed to the MIlbrae Service center where it sat for ~2 weeks due to backlog. Lucid thankfully provided me with a rental initially and then with a loaner Air.

When the technician finally got to the car - they found a fault relating to the inverter of the front drive unit. This fault shows an internal failure that will require a replacement of the hardware. Turns out this fault is actually caused due to a software bug - which is supposed to be fixed in release 3.6 ( ETA unknown ) . The car got returned back to me with a note saying:

Client notified that car may lose power due to DSW reappearing during wait for new software.

This past Sunday ( May 17 ) the issue popped up again - where the drive train lost power and speed got limited again.

I opened a case with Lucid to buyback the car and get me out of a fundamentally broken car . 11 calendar days, multiple emails later they have not the decency to even respond. So much so for "compromise nothing". Only thing you compromise on is the safety of the passengers and your loved ones when you purchase/lease this car.. Way to go Lucid.. Way to go!!

I was one of the people who got their Gravity after 3.5.1 update and was disappointed that both of my keys had awful performance almost right away. No matter the amount of battery replacements and resets they were working max 50% of the time. Walk away locking was mainly me needing to use the app and I have to be standing next to my door for the handle to pop out. Sometimes it wouldn’t even pop out and pressing unlock didn’t work, at times I had to press unlock a bunch of times and even then over 30s delay or wouldn’t work at all.

Well, finally had my mobile tech appointment and they mentioned they had firmware that wasn’t OTA to try. But they also noticed that my keys were earlier hardware revision. Apparently the new one fixes buttons getting stuck (never had that) along other things they don’t know about. They replaced both of my keys. Since then, omg… it’s perfect. Car actually unlocks if I walk to the trunk, no odd locking as I’m next to it behavior. Locking and unlocking in general is very good and handles present themselves before I even walk to the driver door.

Don’t know if it will help others, but wanted to share.

any idea when the next update is due?

Hey everyone,
Recently picked up a Gravity GT after coming from a BMW iX. I am still adjusting to the battery math. I never trusted range shown in the iX, but could basically bank on 1 % of the battery equaling roughly 1 kwh (with its 105 kw pack).

I think Gravity’s usable capacity is around 115 ~118 kw, but my trip data is not adding up. Here are two recent samples:

• Trip A: Used 85% battery (energy tab), but the trip computer says I only consumed 91 kWh. (settings tab)
• Trip B: Used 5% battery, trip computer shows 5.2 kWh used.

If I calculate the total capacity based on those numbers, the car acts like it only has a 104 ~ 107 kw battery.

I am ignoring parked battery drain (energy tab) and only looking at driving consumption. Are you folks seeing something similar? Does the trip meter just ignore climate loads (however, range test on YouTube were correct regarding battery size) or my car’s battery percent calculation is off? Yet to reach 1000 miles.

I noticed the 3rd row seats don't "lock" into place and bounce when going over a speed bump. Is this normal? If not, does anyone else have this issue?

The driver’s side window window goes up and then immediately comes back down about five inches—won’t stay up. Has anyone experienced this? No amount of opening and closing the door helps. We have to drive with an open window.

Finally happened to our GGT. My wife was driving with my daughter in the rear car seat turning left when she started feeling shuttering and heard beeping. Car is in turtle mode, no hold, and couldn’t go more than a few MPH. I’m thankful nobody was coming quickly in cross traffic or who knows what would have happened. It’s currently at the Portland repair shop to see what can be done. I feel like I was dismissive when others had these types of problems, but it hits home when my 3 year old was in the back seat and they were in the middle of an intersection.
