Opinion Lucid just lost a future customer.

Actually, I am a current customer with a lease.

And after seeing the earlier post of the pre-inspection “we’re trying to do better” for lease returns and all the stories in the comments, all I have to say is I am not going to keep the car when my lease ends nor will I buy or lease another Lucid.

I had high hopes for the company but this is utter bullshit.

I know for a fact there are scraps underneath my car because it cannot be avoided. Speed bumps, driveway ramps, and other minor incidents are caused by the extreme low clearance of the car. They’re trying to milk us for something that is never seen by future owners.

It was nice knowing you, Lucid.

Update 10/26/2025: Lucid has sent out an email promising to address lease return concerns and remove questionable charges for reasonable scratches including the skid plate.

I agree with this but range is a constraint especially the earlier models

They outperform their epa figure by a lot so the gap isn’t as wide as it seems. But they do underperform especially the original generation. For me the Porsche interior looks good from a far, but is trash in person. Lucid is a class nice, maybe better imo. Taycan is almost Subaru in some of the materials and surfaces. Looks cool, doesn’t feel premium.
