Where is the Lucid Air Sapphire ?

Lsi, 17 Dec 2023You cant compare say super cars brands to this ... These are mostly just regular evs... So yea... moreLike it really matter.
Yiu can iown a most luxurious looking car in the world but as long as it takes 3 days to go from Vienna to paris which is 1400 kilometers its a garbage.
If a 200 eur car bought on a scrapyard can go same 1400 from Viena to Paris in lets say 12 hours it will be awesome.
Every car have much more acspects than just a beautification factor.

Anonymous, 17 Dec 2023Don't mind him. He is just a stupid troll living in his fantasy that China or Chinese com... moreWell i dont mind. I am here for having fun i always was and also to learn something new and interesting.

Quiote dont understand your stupid comment.

how is it possible a car to fail in braking? this is not a prototype, right? performance is nothing when brakes don't work as expected.

Anonymous, 17 Dec 2023No matter how fast and how handsome these EV, electronic and batteries will fail at some point... moreTesla for sure is not the best EV company. Their batteries come from BYD, which is Chinese, and BYD has a very good warranty with OTA updates. Yes there are one or two Chinese car manufacturers like Hongqi that have problems, but most of the Ev companies from china are very reliable and they drive much better than teslas. I used to have a model Y here in Sweden, and I switched to a Zeekr 001 a few weeks ago. The ride quality is far better and the seats are comfier, and the build is more sturdy than my old Tesla. I moved from Shanghai to Sweden last year and I heard many problems about brakes failing and fires occurring from teslas. These Chinese car manufacturers do not have as many problems like Tesla, and NIO, Xpeng, BYD, and Geely are for sure more reliable, and are easier to service than Tesla in China.

Anonymous, 17 Dec 2023wondering why the lucid air sapphire wasn't thereYou know ... there are a ton of other EV missing as well. You always have a test where some models are MIA.
It's most likely not like they did not try to include them, but manufacturers simply did not have a spare available.
Not to mention, the test was done in China ... so the fact Lucid does not sell cars there might be important as well, don't you think?

No matter how fast and how handsome these EV, electronic and batteries will fail at some points. I have heard bad feedback from Chinese makers who don't honor the battery warranty and software bugs won't go away, on the other hand, Tesla has good reputation to replace your parts under warranty and timely OTA updates. Never believe in the statement that EV requires zero maintenance, if you want reliability, pick the best auto marker out there.

CptPower, 16 Dec 2023Mr. unnamed, annonymous, noname etc. No i am not. I am a Slovakian citizen founder of a phones... moreDon't mind him. He is just a stupid troll living in his fantasy that China or Chinese companies can only make copies and even that bad ones.
BTW, I am also from Slovakia. We are countrymen.

I know it is a popular topic for some people, but honestly what driver cares if the car will do 0-100 km in 2 sec, compared to 3 ... or 5 for that matter.
As for Lucid Air Sapphire, no one truly cares that it should be the fastest, but it certainly should be the most fun to drive EV on the market, at least right now.

Mazda MX5, Porsche, Toyota GT86/BRZ, GR Yaris/GR Corolla and many others show, you do not need a car that has 500+ HP.

Edit: In Porshe Panamera, when you go really fast, you have no trouble reaching consumption 30l/100km (average). I know you still have a bigger range than EV going full speed, but still it shows when you drive any car hard, the range drops significantly.

CptPower, 16 Dec 2023mEh average gas or fuel powered car range is simmilar what the heck you are saying. You cant compare say super cars brands to this ... These are mostly just regular evs... So yeah if it is a regular car then it needs a better range before speed. Whats the point of doing 2-3sec if the car doesnt look anything like a racing car or luxury car.

Tesla malfunctioning again? Their QC still sucks.

Use to matter but not anymore besides rubber have reach it limits of friction

Lsi, 16 Dec 2023I find it stupid.... Because who the fk cares if the range is so low. mEh average gas or fuel powered car range is simmilar what the heck you are saying.

Anonymous, 16 Dec 2023Are you Chin€se Ag€nt ??Mr. unnamed, annonymous, noname etc. No i am not. I am a Slovakian citizen founder of a phoneshop company here in my country where we sells phones and accesories.
But what i said is correct and exact no matter how you look at it.
