I give you vegan leather
Did we tell you that Saudis have invested $3B in Lucid? Yeah, the same regime that keeps kneecapping environmental protections.
Also if that picture is from said SUV, I’m having a hard time figuring out how a set of good old mechanical gauges is less sustainable than screens
Being an SUV, it’ll weigh 50% more than necessary. That outweighs almost any other sustainability considerations.
Stupid fucking touchscreens.
Does everyone really want the entire dash covered in screens? Is that really what everyone wants? I really dislike where car design is going. But I like buttons and dials so maybe I’m just old and dumb or something.
We’re dinosaurs, not long meant for this world. We had our time, friend.
There was a study not long ago saying that customers were tired of all the gadgets and electronics bloat in automobiles. VW actually came out and announced they’re going back to physical buttons for things due to popular demand.
I want real gauges and buttons and knobs as well. I’m not a fan of massive screens and no tactile feedback.
Soon people will forget where the concept of a “radio button” came from and why
IDK about everyone, but personally I love the screen based interface style that car-design is trending towards.
I’m with you. The screens are nice to have as a display, usable for entertainment when stuck in the car waiting for someone, but touchscreen is so much harder to control, especially while driving. Not to mention it just looks dumb with only screen. And what about the brightness? One thing I really love is cool interior light design in cars. The early-to-mid VWs had great design, all blue and orange. It was cool as fuck. Now I just have a big bright screen? Hell no. Give me physical buttons that I can feel for without taking my eyes off the road.
At this point it just seems like the auto industry is going tits up. I’ll never buy a new car with everything I’m hearing about their shittiness. But I was avoiding having to ever have a car again, if possible.
I miss knobs.
and levers.
The amount of screens in that is a hard nope for me. If A/C and radio/volume aren’t tactile buttons/knobs, that’s a deal breaker.

Who is Lucid’s CEO ?
I’d rather not have a repeat of elon musk
It’s insane how much damage Musk has done to his own companies.
And yet they still receive a surprising amount of money from the US government, last I checked.
Did I miss the numbers in the article?
you’re right. apparently the article was referring to the sustainability of the interior materials. that makes the title misleading.
Wow, that is a surprisingly ugly interior
I’d love to go electric but most of the electric vehicles I’ve seen are a) luxury and b) small. Like I want something large that can pull a trailer and haul my kayaks/bikes/skis/tools/etc.
So an actual SUV (not a small suv like Tesla X) sounds great, but all this luxury shit is a big turnoff for me. It’s going to get beat to hell, and I don’t want to worry about fixing all this electronic shit like pop out door handles. I don’t even want power windows or AC.
What gas car can you even get without power windows?
