Same here. Had a deposit from nearly day one. Had to cancel after seeing how half baked both the organization and the car software was when it came time to covert the deposit to an order. Maybe those things are better now >1y later… but now there’s even more competition coming in cheaper than they are. The Model S is that much cheaper and the Polestar 4 and ID.7 are coming around the corner.
For what they’re charging, they need to have their systems worked out basically perfectly. Especially for nav/route planning and media controls it should feel at least as good as the AAOS Google Maps and Spotify does on my Polestar 2, which is almost half the cost of the equivalently spec-ed Lucid.
