There are two types of batteries powering your vehicle: a high-voltage lithium-ion battery pack that powers the vehicle's electric powertrain motors and two 12V AGM batteries that power systems, such as the Infotainment displays and safety systems.
Extreme temperatures can damage the battery pack. Avoid parking in direct sunlight, especially on hot, sunny days, if possible. Lucid also recommends keeping your vehicle sheltered or parked in a garage whenever possible in extremely cold weather.
The most effective way to prolong the battery, (when not driving), is leaving it plugged into a charging source. Setting the charge level to Daily usage also helps preserve battery health.
When the vehicle is not in use for long periods of time, it is necessary to plug it into a charging source and set the charge target to the minimum Daily value (typically 50% state of charge).
The Glass Cockpit will
show a yellow low battery indicator when the remaining battery pack charge falls
below the 50 mi / 80 km range.
Warnings will display on the Glass Cockpit when the battery pack charge level falls below 10 mi / 16 km). Proceed to the nearest charging station as soon as possible to avoid a vehicle shutdown.
The Glass Cockpit will display a warning indicator when poor battery pack health is detected.
Battery pack performance degrades over time, as is normal with all lithium-ion batteries. The Pilot Panel will display a warning when the battery pack needs service. Contact Lucid Customer Care to schedule a service appointment.
