Not really, IMHO. Tesla will do the minimum required to qualify for the free government bucks. Like with battery swap.

That’s a low bar, too. The requirement is being open to “more than one manufacturer.” So maybe Aptera? We’ll see.

Elon said they are opening to everyone. And will have an elegant solution for adapters.
World wide. Even in countries where there are no incentives conditioned on opening up the supercharger network.
Really. If they wanted a deal with Bollinger Motors or Mazda to meet the letter of the law in the USA they would have done so already.

The 2022 Lucid Air Dream Edition to Be Offered In R (Range) and P (Performance) Guises
And guess what the price difference between the R and P versions is.

I read the review and I was hopping they posted more performance metric. The only thing I got from the article was it offers more range, better interior for $40k and $80k more when compered to the Plaid and LR.

Precisely, article does not give much information than that. Feel like it recommend Tesla by omitting other metrics. Hopefully more will be coming
this is the only specs that I found:
wow Lucid is going with some really skinny tires trying to get the most range when compared to the Model S front 255's and 285 and 295's rear.

2022 Lucid Air Dream Edition R Exclusive First Drive: Mic Drop!
Lucid Motors’ excellent electric luxury sedan—its first-ever car, by the way—is absolutely a serious threat to Tesla and other luxury carmakers.

No.
Base price $170,500
The 68 Plaid S's that were sold from inventory (I think only like 12 left) in the past 16 hours will probably be more than Lucid sells for all of 2021...........so
In recent pics, Rawlinson is seen holding up 4 fingers...maybe that is how many Lucid is planning on delivering in 2021.
Best case Lucid winds up taking the ultra luxury segment, after licensing Tesla's FSD stack of course.
Something off about their claims. That's a very slow 933 bhp if it's 0-60 is slower than a Taycan.
In the world of speed, the difference between 2.5 and 2 second 0-60 is not 100 bhp, but like 400 bhp.

Not at all. I'm perfectly happy to root for Lucid, Rivian and every OEM that can produce and sell viable EV's. For every person who - for whatever misguided reason doesn't want to buy a Tesla - I hope there is another EV they will buy to avoid putting another ICE on the road. For those who objectively compare them, I'm certain it can only improve Tesla sales. But again, the goal is to accelerate the transition to sustainable energy. Any company that legitimately furthers that goal should be supported.
I'm not sure they will care to. The market for people who want exotic wood dashes and whatnot is getting smaller. IMO the new premium luxury are things like infotainment and self driving.

Short answer.....no.
Deeper answer....this kind of thing is literally the Master Plan.
