not outdated - i understand inflation, etc. but my point stands, there are FAR FAR fewer buyers at 80k (and more likely 90-100k) today than there are at lower price points.
Well, of course.
have you every BOUGHT a car for 80k+? you lease, so it's not the same. i realize you could buy, but don't for business/tax reasons. many people lease though because they could not come up with the cash (or cope with payments) to buy an 80k+ car.
LOL, please. I make $2,600 a month in lease payments, I can buy an $80K car lol. Its no different, you make a payment and you have a car. You write a check and you have a car.

I see lots of high end EVs running around from various brands, I don't agree...and the EV market is growing. I even see 2-3 Lucid Airs a week now.
My point wasn't about cross-shopping the Y and X, it's about staying afloat and making a profit. Assuming they can make it at a reasonable cost, they aren't going to be anywhere near profitable until they have a vehicle that can sell more than the 9k vehicles that they're expecting with the Air this year.
there is a lot of work ahead of Lucid.
Gravity looks like a minivan, is it really going to be a big seller?
I see Rivian as company that has a lot clearer path ahead.
I wish they would've gone full minivan and gone with sliding doors. My completely unscientific guess on how many they sell is probably up to 15K if production can keep up. Estimates for the Air are ~9K and I would expect a healthy bump moving to an SUV form factor. That said, it's hard to keep an entire company afloat on 24K units sold per year.
I would disagree. The slope on the back of the EQS SUV and X aren't great for space, but definitely make them non-minivan like. EQS SUV looks like a hearse, not like a minivan

from the side. This is the best looking. Front end is hideous
