FYI, Laughing is due to the Large Gap comment.

Be interesting to see if Cadillac ever adds an electric car. I kind of doubt it at this time as I think this is a shrinking field of desire. I think Cadillac did right with the Lyriq.

With Pictures uploading again, I added the few Interior images to the picture folder for those wanting a detailed view of the inside of the Lucid.

Looking good Drew, course a bit white if ya ask me!

Lucid Tesla Porsche Mercedes Even Audi e-tron sedan that is coming to market and pretty much a Porsche with a redesign on the front is better looking than the EQS. I would honestly take an Audi or Porsche over these other cars from a exterior design standpoint, but like @balthazar has stated only American auto's in my driveway. But everyone knows I am an SUV/Truck man, so either Rivian, GM or Ford at this point. So this is my options:

Found this on a Lucid Forum to be of interesting Context for the all glass roof on Rivian and Lucid auto's. A Rivian “guide” (personal sales representative) answered a series of questions posed by a Rivian reservation holder. Some of the answers possibly shed light on some issues that have been raised about Lucid Airs and might help us understand what could be going on at Lucid on these matters. Electrochromic Dimming Glass The technology required for curved glass was too expensive at present. The Rivian glass roof will not have a retractable shade, but Rivian is using a tint that actually blocks more light than electrochromic glass – less than 2% of the total spectrum gets through. (Lucid is making similar claims about the performance of their tint in southwest desert conditions.) Interesting Tech Piece | Lucid Owners - Lucid Motors Forum Then we have a .21 coefficient of drag which makes me think that Mercedes took the easy way out of designing the ugly jelly bean look of the EQS. Lucid Air | Lucid Motors Watch the auto run videos here where you see that the glass roof seems to be electrochromic glass as it darkens or maybe just the way they video'd. They do state the following which makes me think they are taking a tint approach like Rivian. Quote: Glass Canopy A roof with a view. Lucid Air is further opened up by its incredible Glass Canopy. This optional solid glass roof spans the entire cabin almost without interruption – giving everyone in the car a gorgeous view of the sky above. And while it’s crystal clear to your eyes, the Glass Canopy has a slew of protective interlayers to block out heat and sunlight. Lucid Air | Design | Lucid Motors

I have seen a Secret Service vehicle and with all the guns and other stuff these humans have to carry, you have to take into account the seats having holes worn in them from the gun holsters, doors, dash, etc. messed up from shotgun holders to other equipment that they carry. Used and Abused might be a bit harsh, but I will say these folks do not worry about the interior or shape as their focus is on protecting the ones they are assigned too. As such, while I agree with you that there is excessive waste by Federal, state, county and city governments on pissing away tax payers money, the Secret Service and FBI I think tend to be hard on their SUVs from a valid reason as taking care of the auto the way you or I would is not their concern or focus. IMHO

Yet even the EQS cannot compete with what this has to offer at the price point. Right now this is making Tesla and Mercedes, heck even Porsche looking pathetic when you take performance and range into consideration. I was going to post pictures of the Tesla S Plaid, EQS and Porsche and yet the ability seems to not be working right now.

I could see once the battery issue is fixed that GM Bolt and Bolt EUV would replace the impalas / Fusions.
