This temporarily drops the entry prices for Grand Touring and Touring to $132,000 and $101,400, respectively.

In Gen 3 cars, Lucid is supplying the front motors that aim for maximum energy recovery—helping to make the race faster and more exciting.

Leasing may become a more popular option for those seeking high-end luxury EVs as an unintended side effect of the Inflation Reduction Act.

We spent a week with the 2022 Lucid Air Grand Touring to check in with its updated interface, and it makes the whole car more appealing.

The Panasonic supply headed to Lucid may include cells from Japan and Kansas, and be bound for Lucid's “full vehicle line-up," according to the companies.

Further development has also reduced the coefficient of drag (Cd) of new Air models to 0.197, putting the Air ahead of the Tesla Model S and Mercedes EQS.

The $88,900 Lucid Air Pure will bow officially with the rest of the lineup—including the top tri-motor Sapphire version.

Lucid said the hardware for bidirectional charging is included as well, and the automaker has said all along that the Air was built with that capability in mind.

An over-the-air update to the electric luxury car spans a wide range of improvements, from headlight operation and de-icing to voice settings for rear climate control.

Bottom line: Lucid claims that its drive units are light, compact, efficient, power-dense, and can be scaled up. And it took going back to the core physics to get there.

The tri-motor Air Sapphire could beat the Tesla Model S Plaid in nearly every performance metric. And versus other Airs, it sacrifices no interior or cargo space.

The darkened appearance package adds $6,000 to the price of most Lucid Air electric cars, but deliveries won't be made until early 2023.

The company did continue to bolster its sales and service network in the quarter, however—something that may put it in a better position once things ramp up.

The fault involves a wiring harness that may not be secured properly in the affected cars—although it affects less than 1% of recalled vehicles.

Lucid has more than 30,000 reservations, and still plans to make 12,000 to 14,000 vehicles at its Arizona plant in 2022.

A tri-motor version of the Lucid Air isn't here yet, and the Dream Edition Performance is sold out. So a new Grand Touring Performance takes the top spot.

DreamDrive Pro has been billed as an answer to Tesla's Autopilot, and Lucid has hinted that it might eventually exceed the capabilities of that and other systems.

Lucid's CEO and CTO Peter Rawlinson teaches the basics on EV batteries while showing off some of the brand's tech.

The Lucid Air gives Tesla some healthy competition, with technology that could bring about extensive change.

The Lucid Air topped 300 kw and came close, in a real-world test, to delivering Lucid's claimed rate of up to 20 miles of range per minute.
