FWIW Lucid uses Linux an Tesla uses Android
All auto manufacters use android or some flavor of linux. Kiyundai used Windows CE on my friends old veloster. But if they're still using it then I'd be shocked.
It doesn't matter that much if it's based on open source if you can't modify the the unregulated parts and have absolutely no privacy.
This is only the infotainment. This has nothing to do with the rest of the car
Incorrect, it is actually the other way around. Tesla’s os is based on Linux and Lucid’s UX os is based on android
Edit: Yes I know YouTube is bad.

He has had direct contact with Emad Dlala, who is currently the Senior Vice President of Engineering and Digital at Lucid. So I think that would be a quite accurate source to say the least. Also the full video in general is very interesting
