I’m living downtown in a city unfortunately so I don’t have the space nor the tools.

I am paying slightly more than that, but that’s for a V8 and full synthetic.

This is the third time we’ve used 1 way rental to go to the airport actually.

Honest question... what’s it not competitive against? Customers aren’t realistically considering 1-way rentals as an alterative in 99.9% of cases.

$180,000 sedans are not the future.

Only one specific high-performance trim of the Lucid is $180k. The cheaper variants which I imagine will make up the bulk of their sales start around $90k.

That does seem like a bit much, but the headlines (which we all know most people don’t read past) make it sound worse than it is by omitting the fact that they only continue calling you if you don’t answer. Hopefully this was just a temporary measure to help them meet end of year targets.

A lot of people don’t consider the Model S to be a true luxury car, whereas the Air is squarely aimed at the luxury market. The price difference does amount to more than just drag race stats.

You better have a fat wallet. They run $250k.

On top of all of that, for every $100k of revenue, they are losing like $150-200k just on a COGS basis without factoring in OPEX. This is before their mix is more of the cheaper models AND before losing tax credit.

It’s in the center console though? Not far from where controls would typically be located.

Assuming that’s not including taxes, though.

If it were a public charger that wouldn’t be much. Home charger is a different story. These things have 500+ miles of range which means most owners will rarely, if ever, need to use a public charger if they charge at home.

He says he doesn’t think FSD will be viable until all the vehicles around the area are communicating intentions to each other.

> implying electric trucks from established competitors aren’t already on the market

But this has to stop for widespread EV adoption. There is a limit as to how much heavy metals etc we have on this planet to manufacture batteries. Let’s at least acknowledge that this car’s battery pack could power 3 other commuter cars and still be powerful enough to have a 5 second 0-60.

Some quick Googling says they lapped it in 1:31, but that was way back in 2020 when it was just being tested.

I suspect their decision to price it that way was driven at least in part by exclusivity. Demand for their cars still far outpaces supply, so might as well capitalize on it while they can.

The 360 figure was just for Q1, the projection for 2022 is 6-7k.

My guy, maybe you forgot already, but you are the one who used a completely made up number placeholder.
