I originally wanted a Lucid Air, but the majority ownership by the Saudi PIF kind of weirded me out. I considered Rivian, but after driving both the R1T and the R1S there was just something about them that didn't feel comfortable to me due to their overall size and the visibility over the hood.
I ended up going with a Cadillac Lyriq. I will say on the range, acceleration, and ease of use side - I miss the Tesla. But in terms of road noise, general interior comfort, and overall ride quality I would say I like it better. It's very roughly the size of my Model S in length and width and the hood visibility is better than Rivian, so I like it. The price was just about right complete with lease incentives. Super Cruise is great on freeways so far, but I'll miss having similar capabilities on non-highway roads - but, I'll live without it.
Charging at home is basically the same. Charging while out is nearly the same as I also got the NACS adapter.
Rivian is also famously Bezos backed, which sucks. I want to eventually get an EV, but I want something that doesn't suck, and doesn't support the oligarchy. I guess I'll keep pushing the hybrid til the wheels fall off.
Looks like Saudi Arabia’s plan to diversify away from oil is not going well. The people likely to buy EVs want nothing to do with anything it invests in.
How’s the car otherwise?
I never got to drive a Lucid, it was unfortunately going to be purchased sight unseen and delivered as the closest Lucid place to me is over 200 miles away :(
