The Lucid Navigation App is integrated with your
vehicle, providing the best routes based on your driving style and vehicle. You can use the
app from either the Pilot Panel or Cockpit Panel, and it can also run in the background when
you are on a route.
Key Navigation Features:
Search
Routing
Guidance
Maps
To access the Lucid Navigation App, press the icon on the Right Cockpit Panel.
The screen will display your current location and
street name (where applicable).
Note: When first using the navigation
system, the primary user may receive a prompt and
must read and agree to the Terms and Conditions
before proceeding.
If you pan away from the current location, the street name will be replaced by a Recenter button.
Touch Recenter to return to the default view
showing the current position.
The smart drawer can expand the Navigation screen into the Pilot Panel for additional menus
unavailable in the Right Cockpit Panel.
Search
There are multiple ways to search in the Lucid Navigation App. The following search
features can be accessed from the Right Cockpit Panel or the Glass Cockpit Panel:
Use the universal search box to type a name, address, city name, airport code,
zip/postal code, category, or brand name via the on-screen keyboard.
Select one of the six search categories. Swipe left or right to view additional
categories.
Select from a list of previous destinations or search terms under
Recents. Those places will be replaced with search matches if
you start typing something.
Search in another location by panning the map and tapping Search This
Area to refresh the search results with matches in the new area.
When routing, you have the following two additional ways to search for a location:
Along the Route: This narrows the search results to along the
route ahead, providing up to 60 results. For charging searches, it will list results up
to 60 miles ahead as sometimes chargers can be further away.
Near Destination: The map will zoom in to show the destination
and display up to 60 nearby search results in a radial pattern.
Navigation Settings
Press the icon on the Navigation screen via the Pilot Panel to configure navigation options, including:
Satellite Imagery: This toggles
preferences for showing Satellite Imagery as the background map. When
connectivity is poor, the Satellite images might initially look blurry while
they fully load.
Note: Satellite Imagery cannot load without connectivity or be
downloaded offline. If you lose connectivity, turn off Satellite Maps and
use previously downloaded standard maps. See Map Updates and Offline Mode.
Traffic: This toggles preferences for
showing traffic on map, such as flow and incidents. This feature requires
connectivity to work. Traffic information on the map may be slow to load when
connectivity is poor. Traffic is visible at several zoom levels, including city
and street-level views.
Offline Mode: The app settings now have an offline mode if users are concerned about
privacy. In this mode, you will not be connected to a server, but GPS is
still available. Before switching to Offline mode, you must first download
maps while connected via Wi-Fi or cellular connectivity. While in Offline
mode, you can use search (limited to in-map addresses and businesses),
routing (not including traffic, EV, or charging details), and turn-by-turn
guidance.
Note: If you
lose connectivity and are only using downloaded maps, the number of
points of interest for Search will be more limited and the route will no
longer be an EV Route (it will not auto-add charge stops, if needed).
Offline Maps: Users can now download one
or more states or provinces at a time. Offline maps are used when connectivity
is lost or in Offline mode. You can also pause and resume a download to control
what gets downloaded and when. See Map Updates and Offline Mode.
Personal Data: To better personalize trip
recommendations, the navigation system collects personal location data, such as
home, work, current vehicle location, and state of charge. You can permanently
delete your personal data from this screen.
Note: Only a primary user can
accept or reject the Terms and Conditions or delete downloaded maps. If the
primary user declines the Terms and Conditions, navigation will stop working
for all users until the Terms and Conditions are
accepted.
Anonymous longitude/latitude data is shared with our
navigation service partner to enable Search and Routing, but personal data
is locally saved. Both primary and secondary users can delete their own
data. The navigation will still work in Guest mode after deleting, but home,
work, and destination history will be erased.
Note: Deleting
personal location data cannot be undone. Lucid does not store a
copy of this data.
You can also set volume level, language, and unit of measurement preferences for your vehicle,
including navigation, in Vehicle Settings. See Changing Display Settings.
Charging Category Search
Tap the CHARGING search category icon for the best way to
search, sort, and filter Charging Stations locations. These will include dynamic
plug type and availability information by Stand (not by Plug) wherever possible. The
plug type and availability information require connectivity and are regularly
updated directly by the providers.
The default view shows nearby Lucid Charging Partner's DC fast chargers above 150
kilowatts, which provide the best charger user experience.
You can also manually filter options to further sort your options based on criteria
such as availability, distance, power, or plug type. Additionally, there is a toggle
to see nearby trusted brands.
Note: Only public chargers will be shown.
Note: Your connection will attempt to
supply power up to the published power output. The actual power delivery may be
lower, depending on external factors, such as outside temperature, power load at the
charging station, and age and maintenance of the charging station equipment.
Note: The quality of availability information can vary as it can be affected by
connectivity issues as well as numerous real-time variables at the charging
station.
Note: DC FAST Chargers are not yet
available in some countries. The EV Routing feature will, therefore, not be able to
auto-add DC Charging Stops when used in those countries. Because of this,
Lucid recommends manually searching for nearby chargers and adding them
as stops on your route. However, the new route ETA will not be able to calculate an
ETA for manually added stops that include any potential charging time. Allow extra
travel time if you manually add a charging stop.
Routing
All Lucid routes are EV Routes by default when connected. These EV
Routes are integrated with your vehicle range and consumption profile. When
plotting an EV route custom to you in the moment, the Lucid Navigation App
also considers the following factors:
Road type and speeds for your selected route
Current temperature
Current traffic conditions and historical traffic conditions (for longer
routes)
Your current vehicle
settings, such as heating and defrost
The weight of the
vehicle, including passengers and luggage
The age of your battery
The map will display an overview of the proposed route on both the Right
Cockpit Panel and Pilot Panel once the location is specified. By default,
the proposed route is the fastest route with the least overall travel time
(driving and charging time combined) and is shown on the map in bright blue.
Up to two alternative suggestions may be shown in a lighter blue. All route
options will display traffic conditions. If necessary, charge stops will
also be auto-added to all route options.
You can preview and plan your route on the MY ROUTE
screen before tapping GO.
For EV Routes that require charging stops to safely reach the destination, the
app will auto-add DC fast charging stops along with additional details, such
as location name, brand name, address, and suggested charge time.
Note: The system
predicts the estimated remaining energy when you arrive at a stop or
destination. The predicted energy estimation is regularly updated in real
time as you drive toward your stop or destination.
After you start driving, alternate navigation routes are continuously displayed
on the map. They are easily identifiable by a lighter color and an info
bubble displaying the time difference between them.
Note: Alternate routes are offered solely as reasonable alternatives. The default
proposed route is the fastest route, with the least overall travel
time.
To change routes, tap on the route or the info bubble. The alternate routes
will automatically update after a decision point is passed based on new road
options and conditions ahead.
The alternate routes provide different options to choose from, allowing you to
select the most suitable one for your needs. When connected, the alternate
routes will be shown as EV Routes with auto-added stops if needed. However,
alternate routes still work for non-EV routes if connectivity is
unavailable.
When actively routing, turn-by-turn guidance instructions show on multiple
screens once the route has started. If the navigation on the Right Cockpit
Panel is replaced with media or the phone app while routing, turn-by-turn
instructions will remain in view in the Center Cockpit Panel. Lane guidance,
exit numbers, highway numbers, street names, distances, and other guidance
details will be displayed when appropriate.
The smart drawer will show a full list of written instructions when you start a
trip. This list will automatically minimize after 30 seconds to provide a
full-screen view of the map and route. The route view on the map will
display all stops and traffic conditions. The smart drawer can be reopened
manually by tapping the center icon in the lower left of the Pilot
Panel.
Note: When routing starts, a mute button will appear on the Right Cockpit Panel
navigation screen, enabling you to turn off audio guidance for the remainder
of your trip.
When the next stop is an auto-added charging stop, additional details will be
displayed, such as the predicted percent of energy on arrival, suggested
plug type to use, charge duration suggestion, and minimum charge percent
suggestion. This information will show in both the DETAILS and MANAGE tabs
until your route ends. You can tap each auto-added charging stop on the
route from the map view to access more details. When you arrive at an
auto-added charging stop, this information will remain on the screen until
you dismiss it, allowing you enough time to review the recommendation before
proceeding.
Note: The Lucid Navigation App
calculates predicted energy usage along the route. For more information, see
Predicting Energy Usage.
An Insufficient Charge notification will appear if the
EV route requires charging but a fast charger cannot be auto-added along the
route. In this case, Lucid recommends a manual search for charging.
Slow chargers can usually be found and used along the route.
If you deviate from the route at any point, the system will immediately and
automatically recalculate a new route and issue new instructions. If you
must stop and turn off the vehicle while routing, the route will continue to
be displayed on the screen when you return and turn on the vehicle.
Press END or use voice commands, such as
cancel navigation, to end navigation.
Adjusting the Map
The maps on either the Right Cockpit Panel or the Pilot Panel can be individually
rotated, panned, or zoomed in and out via the touchscreen. The Pilot Panel and Glass
Cockpit can maintain their own independent map setting and zoom level whether
routing or not.
Pinch or use one finger to double-tap the touchscreen to zoom in on the map. Use two
fingers to tap the touchscreen to zoom out. Swipe two fingers on the touchscreen to
access a 3D view of the map.
By default, the map centers around your current location and displays the current
street name.
The RECENTER button will appear any time the map is
manipulated beyond your vehicle’s current position. Tap it to return to your current
position.
Touch the icon in the lower right of the map to select from one of five default map
viewing modes:
Range Map:
Shows the approximate range that can be traveled using your current level of
charge. See Predicting Energy Usage.
3D
Track-Up: Shows a 3D view that tracks your vehicle’s current
position and rotates the map to show what is in front of the vehicle.
2D
Track-Up: Shows a 2D view that tracks your vehicle’s current
position and rotates the map to show what is in front of the vehicle.
North-Up:
Shows a 2D view where North is always at the top of the map.
Route
Overview: Shows a 2D view that displays your current route
end-to-end and North is always at the top of the map.
Note: The
Route Overview mode will only appear when a route
is selected.
The default map views will be ignored once you start manually interacting with the
map. The system will maintain your personal user mode until you select one of the
default views listed above.
The map contains features such as real-time traffic, buildings, realistic 3D
landmarks in most city centers (when zoomed in), and points of interest. Points of
interest can be selected from the map to see details and create a route to them. You
can also tap on any other place on the map to view the coordinates and make a route
to that point.
Predicting Energy Usage
When connected, the Auto‑Add Charging feature is
always ON and helps anticipate the vehicle’s charging needs
for a trip. This feature automatically adds DC charging stations to
a calculated route, as needed.
Note: You must manually
search and add a charging stop to your route if no DC charging
stations are available. For manually added chargers, the route ETA
calculation will not be able to estimate the required charging
time.
Using Range Map Mode
The Range Map viewing mode provides a visual representation of anticipated range based on your
current battery state of charge, traffic conditions, elevation
changes, and more. To display the Range Map, select the viewing mode
using the map controls.
When connected, the Range Map will appear as an irregularly shaped
polygon on the map. The shape of the polygon is based on the road
network, types of roads, and all other vehicle and road conditions
that impact the range calculation.
Note: The Range Map
does not automatically refresh when continuously displayed
on the map. It must be manually refreshed as needed by
switching to another viewing mode and then switching back to
the Range Map mode.
Setting Home and Work Destinations
Common destinations, such as your home or workplace, can be stored as shortcuts in
the system, allowing you quick access within the Navigation menus.
If the Home and Work locations are already set in the Search drawer, they can be used
as one-touch shortcuts to start a route. Otherwise, type your address in the Search
bar, select it to view the Details tab, and then tap the heart icon to save it as your Home or Work location. Home and Work locations can
also be set using voice commands and in the vehicle Profile settings.
To remove a location as Home or Work, select Remove in the
location's Detail tab.
Map Updates and Offline Mode
The Lucid Navigation App is connected-first, meaning it will first try to get the
newest maps around you over a wireless connection. If connectivity is temporarily
unavailable, the app will fall back on stored offline maps.
Note: When the Lucid Navigation App is in
Offline mode, an icon of a cloud with a line through it will appear on the
navigation screens.
When in use, the navigation app will automatically download maps of your immediate
surroundings for offline use. The local auto-downloaded maps are self-healing and
are automatically updated over the air with no user intervention when they become
available and a data connection is present.
Lucid strongly recommends you download your local state or province as a
backup map in case connectivity is ever lost. You can download as many maps as you
would like and can update them as frequently as you want. A message will appear in
Navigation Settings > Download Maps when a map update is
available for previously updated maps. Lucid recommends updating your maps
frequently as new roads, addresses, and points of interest are regularly added and
removed.
When offline, the navigation system can only display and search routes based on the
local or downloaded maps. Search results will be labeled as OFFLINE
RESULTS and routes will not be based on traffic or EV
considerations.
Note: Offline route calculation cannot be completed if any part of the downloaded map is
missing.
