So I’ve been debating for the past few days and I want a few more opinions. I’m debating getting Tesla plaid but is there any other cars similar price that’s maybe even better? (Range, looks, etc)
#idk if this is the right place

What’s your price range.
dark wren
What’s your price range.
My question to you though is the plaid reliable
charred drum
As reliable as a high performance EV can be.
dark wren
As reliable as a high performance EV can be.
Would there be something better
For that price
charred drum
I mean the Lucid Air is gonna be the high end of that but its performance and luxury is unbeatable in its price range.

For the Tesla ?
Oh the Lu I’d
charred drum
The lucid.
dark wren
So lucid would be better than Tesla
charred drum
Yes.
dark wren
One sec
dark wren
Yes.
So it says varies by trim on each but I can’t find different trims
Like when I press order it doesn’t give options
charred drum
This is the lucid air GT
dark wren
So if a trim isn’t available it’s probabaly not listed
Since there’s a few more things it says but it isn’t there
charred drum
This is better than any Tesla. They’re expensive, but they have better quality, range, options, features, etc etc.
Sure, a used Tesla Plaid would outperform it any day, but if speed is your only concern then the Lucid isn’t for you.
They have higher trims, but the GT is the highest one they have available right now. The sapphire is sold out or not available yet I believe.

This is better than any Tesla. They’re expensive, but they have better quality, ...
So speed is the only thing that Tesla is better in?
Ok so
The sapphire is 250,000 that’s quite a bit more so

In what ways would lucid be better like feature s
Sorry for asking a lot I’m just trying to figure out
charred drum
In what ways would lucid be better like feature s
In their “less expensive” models they’re fully loaded. Just go check their website for the features it has.
Way better sound system, heated and ventilated seats (you’ll have to double check that) build quality is top tier and doesn’t rattle, sound deadening is infinitely superior, just better in every way.
The range is almost 200 miles more than a fully loaded Tesla

Would the sapphire outperform the Tesla?
Or no
charred drum
dark wren
I don’t think it’s worth getting the sapphire it’s 250
Would there be any better non ev cars
charred drum
Porsche, and Corvette (C6-C8),
dark wren
Porsche, and Corvette (C6-C8),
How’s the range on those cars though
lost roostBOT
GG @dark wren, you just advanced to level 7! Chat more to level up and earn top roles!
charred drum
How’s the range on those cars though
I mean there’s definitely more but those are the two I can think of off the top of my head.
Range isn’t gonna be great… they’re sports cars. They’re not meant for range or gas mileage. You don’t buy a sports car for its fuel economy, quite the opposite lol.
dark wren
I mean there’s definitely more but those are the two I can think of off the top ...
So ev like lucid is great if im looking for all in one kind of?
Even on the sapphire range is 400
dark wren
I mean there’s definitely more but those are the two I can think of off the top ...
Would you say the sapphire is better though
Overall
charred drum
Yeah. The sapphire is the best EV overall. If you’re looking for something that does literally everything well, there isn’t a better option.
HOWEVER… the Lucid Air GT is far superior in price to performance. I would personally (if I had the money) get either a Lucid Air GT or a Rivian R1S
The Rivian is just for me tho, don’t worry about comparing that to any Tesla or Lucid lmao. Just my personal want.

Is there a noticeable difference between grand touring and the sapphire
charred drum
Yes. Range and Price.
charred drum
The sapphire is for rich mfs with 3 divorces, a supermodel girlfriend that’s 1/4 of their age, a house worth more than my hometown, and douchebag children that think they’re the best thing ever.
If you actually want to get the Tesla plaid, get the Lucid Air GT instead.
charred drum
Is there any comparable suv?
The Rivian R1S is the only option if you don’t want a Tesla.
All other electric SUVs are ass, or virtually nonexistent. I like the Volvo EV’s but they don’t do anything particularly well. They’re just middle of the road type of vehicles.
