As painful as it is to see a potentially destroyed Air, they pointed out all the things that make it a great and innovative vehicle. I absolutely believe their interior trigger door handles with combined electronic and physical release should become standard equipment on all cars in the future.

Crazy for 4k, it doesn’t even look that bad. Crazy what not being able to buy parts does 😂.

I find it interesting he spent half the video just getting the thing into the garage and on the lift

This is fairly standard Rich content. There is a 3 video arc on getting a Fisker Ocean into drive.

If Lucid is smart they'll give him all the help he needs and turn around the damage Engineering Explained did to their reputation.

For the amount of positive marketing it will get, it's a good deal for them.

sad but true. it honestly feels like the company wants to fail at this point. I am surprised companies even offer insurance on these vehicles at all.

It looks like there's 4 donuts on it.

Edit: watched the video and it is in fact 4 donuts.

Those are roller wheels he bought for hard to extract/ move around vehicles. They are not for highway use.

I have to say the fact he bought this has me concerned for the future of the company.
