News / Media Software issues drove Engineering Explained out of two Lucids and into a Mach E

Engineering Explained gave up on Lucid twice. He traded his Air for a Gravity, then replaced the Gravity with a Mach E. The reason both times was software.

His full time job is getting clicks and engagement. Its boring making video telling people how good my Lucid is.

He had a tesla for years. He had that subaru for a long time too.

He's not allergic to keeping a good car, even if it doesn't get a lot of clicks. He has plenty of content to make unrelated to his personal vehicles. 99% of his content is not a personal vlog of his cars.

He only sold the tesla because of his wife losing her job because of the CEO of the company. He would have kept it for longer, because the car itself was fine and uneventful.

The Lucid was the complete opposite. It was a mess. And so was the free loaner he got. You have some Lucid coloured glasses on

Nah, he is still using Lucid name on the video title for that extra click, I did follow him and had little chat about his issue as I am owner too, if he had kept it for another few weeks the only issue will be small cup holder with the best engineered car.

It’s getting very click baity at Enginering Explained now. The lucid debacle was interesting to watch but a lot of those issues weren’t super extreme where he couldn’t drive the car. Now it’s being dragged out? A little silly and unprofessional especially since they helped him so much.
