![]() ![]() With all of this being said Lucid will continue to grow and change. The "cockpit display" is obviously copied from the Taycan while the overall simplicity mimics a Tesla which is what I wished to avoid with Teslas in the first place (alongside their quality issues of course). In my eyes the Air's interior just took many bits from Tesla and the Porsche Taycan and combined them for something very underwhelming. I'm likely going to skip the Air and I may wait for the next EV that can offer great performance, a nice exterior, and a "gaudy" interior. I am personally a fan of the EQS' interior being a buyer at 21. ![]() Doug DeMuro really likes the EQS' interior as well while stating that the Air definitely doesn't meet German rivals' level of luxury. In fact, Kyle from Out of Spec Reviews really loves it despite the hideous exterior of the EQS. I've noticed that the younger reviewers <40 tend to appreciate it. Also, I appreciate the ambient lighting in the EQS and if one does find it distasteful why not disable them? Again, I truly am amazed by the reaction to the EQS' interior. I have always found this beautiful and the seats of the Air appear overly bland to me especially for the money and many others I've shown them to have been unimpressed. I receive immense compliments for this quilted style of jackets with many people telling me how much they love the quilted design so this hate for quilted leather in a vehicle seemed strange to me. The quilted leather for instance is something I really like and many of my leather jackets from Boda Skins that I wear for example are quilted giving a modern twist to the classic leather biker jacket. I believe it could be due to the target audience? The Lucid seems to appeal to an older audience hence why I think the EQS' hyper-screen and modern fashion sense is not appreciated by the Lucid audience. The EQS offers much more for less in terms of interior technology and quality/looks. I'm personally finding it very hard to confirm my Grand Touring reservation due to the interior as I do not see how it is worth it for the money. I'm very surprised that the Lucid's simplistic interior is being accepted over the EQS' interior. Anyway, I will leave my comment from the other thread below and would like to know if I am alone on this or what you all think. The Air is just overly simplistic for the money and I can't forgive how many promised features have been stripped without a drop in price especially standard luxury features such as powered doors and air suspension. To put it best I am a fan of interiors in Bentleys, Mercedes S class, and the EQS. At that point, they were shocked since it didn't seem exciting to them from a visual standpoint. It felt like I was in a $70-80,000 car rather than a six figure car and this was the same price that my friends had in mind until I told them it was above $100,000. I have personally sat in one for a good amount as well wondering if they just took the base model's interior and copied it to every trim. Doug DeMuro did briefly comment on this stating that the Air definitely isn't as luxurious on the inside as its german competitors and I absolutely agree. Sure most of the materials are good but the visual aspect and experience isn't exactly there. Essentially, I find that for how much the Lucid Air costs and the segment it is competing in the interior just does not cut it. I would like to just repost that comment in this post since this aspect of the Air has been bugging me quite a bit. I initially commented on a post comparing the Air to the EQS and noticed the distaste for the EQS' interior over the Lucid's simple interior. ![]()
