Thesis at the time
NeutralThe speaker discusses what 2025 production targets will be considered a success. He argues 25,000 units (with at least 2/3 from Gravity) would be a market-pleasing result, but realistically expects Lucid to start with 15,000 guidance, which would cause a negative market reaction. The speaker also notes concerns about a Q4 2024 production surplus signaling potential demand issues.
Key arguments
- 25,000 production units for 2025 (with 2/3 from Gravity) would be seen as a big success and prompt a strong move higher
- AMP2 capacity is 10,000 units and AMP1 can do ~90,000, so 25,000 is achievable if demand supports it
- Gravity uses the same assembly line as Air, so production disruptions should be minimal
- Q4 2024 first time produced > delivered — raises mild demand concern
- Market will punish vague guidance on Gravity demand
Counter-arguments acknowledged
- Speaker realistically expects Lucid to guide 15,000 initially, which the market would negatively react to
- Trump potentially ending the $7,500 EV credit could weigh on demand
- Lucid is still about two years behind original production forecasts
