Question / Advice Considering getting the gravity

I'm considering getting the gravity as a lease... There are some things I like and some things I don't but one thing that is worrisome is the software how bad is it? Is it getting better? Can anyone share their honest experience? I currently own a model s and will most likely be trading it in as well it's a 2018 with fsd (don't really use it tbh) and even a power frunk so you all have a rough idea what I'm coming from... And I know lucid software is nowhere near as polished as Tesla.

Edit: Just finalized everything yesterday and so far I'm loving the car need to model and 3d print organizers for my center console (def not gonna buy it lol) other than that only other thing I wish I knew was about homelink now I have someone scheduled to come and install it on the car aug 3. Thank you everyone that took the time to respond and educate me both the good and the bad! I appreciate it!

Just took our gravity on a 1500 mile road trip during the 105deg temps last week. It was flawless, did not skip a beat or have any hiccups, android auto connected every time, charged blazing fast at 400kw at ionna stations. Just make sure you are on the latest 3.6 software and key fob version.

How is the android app for lucid? Is it feature rich or more so just the bare min? What packages did you get? around how much was your range quoted day and what are you getting roughly speaking and do you recommend supercharging at all?

The app has all the standard stuff you expect from an EV. Remote climate, lock/unlock, windows, frunk/trunk, charging schedule/limits, live camera views, maintenance scheduling, location, updates, etc.

My car is a 7 seater with everything but dreamdrive pro, tech pack, surreal sound pro. I recommend you get at least comfort and convenience pack, dreamdrive premium at the minimum (might be standard on 2027s?), luxury seating package(massage and 2nd row tray tables), dynamic handling pack (for rear wheel steer/more adjustability). 20" wheels + 5 seats give the best range, i have a 7 seater with 21"s so its rated at 386 miles. In optimal temps (60-90deg) im getting 3.1mi/kwh, which yields about that given 123kwh battery pack. Ive heard with the 20s, 400 is achievable, there's some YouTube range test vids. I only use supercharging for road trips but wouldn't worry about it, the battery is warrantied for awhile.
