The videos from Engineering Explained made them look real bad. I know they gave me pause. You can get used ones now for ~$30k, which is kinda crazy.

A little research on forums indicates these cars are pointlessly complex and have chronic software issues and along list of reliability issues. Similar problems to early Teslas, which the Lucid engineers also designed.
Rich Rebuilds is currently dealing with two of them.
Lucid is swirling the bowl, like most EV startups.

The rich rebuild videos on these have been great. I wonder if they will fix his car and that other guy's car. The PR from this could be great for lucid or terrible if they decide not to help.

They have no platform at all. Not even a modem.
