2022 Lucid Air Lucid Stability Control
Lucid Stability Control
WARNING: No electronic system can remove the need for safe driving practices. Although the Lucid Stability Control system can help to maintain control of the vehicle under certain driving conditions, it cannot prevent any accident which may occur due to unforeseen road conditions (e.g. black ice, standing water, etc.) or result from careless/dangerous driving techniques.
The Lucid Stability Control system uses multiple sensors to monitor driver inputs and vehicle
motion. Under certain driving conditions, the system helps to perform the following functions:
- Controls brake pressure to reduce wheel slip on one slipping drive wheel so power is transferred to a drive wheel on the same axle that is not slipping
- Controls brake pressure and traction motor output to reduce drive wheel slip.
- Controls brake pressure at individual wheels and traction motor output to help the driver maintain control of the vehicle in the following conditions:
- Under-steering, sometimes called “washout.” When the front wheels are turned and the vehicle does not respond but continues straight, causing the front tires to lose traction.
- Over-steering, sometimes called “fishtailing” When the rear tire loses traction during a turn and cases the rear of the car to swing out further than intended.
If the Lucid Stability Control system activates while driving.or a fault is detected, the indicator flashes on the Center Cockpit Panel
Lucid Stability Control settings
On the Pilot Panel, press > Vehicle > Drive Settings, then press to select between three levels of Lucid Stability Control:
- Full- This setting is recommended for most driving conditions.
- Partial- Provides a more dynamic driving experience. Not available in “Smooth” mode.
- Off- Disabling stability control significantly reduces traction control and should only be disabled by advanced drivers on closed courses. Not available in “Smooth” mode.
NOTE: You will be prompted to confirm your selection before turning Lucid Stability ControlOff.
If the Lucid Stability Control system is disabled or a fault is detected, the indicator will illuminate on the Cockpit Panel throughout the drive cycle.
NOTE: This setting defaults to FULL for each new Kev cycle.
