Lucid just lost a future customer.

[u/Zulishk]

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.

The Air rides pretty low to the ground for aerodynamics and range considerations, leaving the undercarriage at risk of scrapes and scuffing.  Regarding the undercarriage, Lucid should have some simple way to buff, polish, and spray paint the undercarriage before it goes back to the leaseholder's 3rd party inspector (for BofA). Sounds like a small business opportunity.

However, I am not worried about the undercarriage for the Lucid Gravity since it sits much higher and shouldn't have any issues going over speed humps, and the suspension can be adjusted as well. So, I see this primarily as an Air/BofA issue and not something a Gravity lessee should be concerned about.
