2027 Lucid Gravity

The Gravity seats five as standard, but an available third row expands seating capacity to seven adults. Combine that packaging with rapid charging, substantial cargo room, and sports-car acceleration, and this is an electric family SUV with remarkably few compromises.

About Air

The Lucid Air is the rare electric sedan that makes a Tesla Model S look like it is working too hard. It arrived in 2021 with a rated range beyond 500 miles, a flat floor and rear seat stretched to near-limousine proportions, and a low, glassy body that slices through the air with remarkable efficiency. Lucid packaged the motors and electronics so tightly that the car offers a front trunk and a deep rear trunk on a footprint similar to a Mercedes E-Class.

The range runs from the entry Pure through Touring and Grand Touring to the tri-motor Sapphire, a four-door that delivers well over 1,000 horsepower and carbon-ceramic brakes without ever feeling unhinged. Drivers praise the supple ride and accurate steering; critics have long poked at the software, the slow early infotainment and the quirky climate controls. Lucid has answered with a stream of over-the-air updates, including a major interface overhaul that brought the Gravity's newer screens and layout to existing Air owners.

The Air competes with the Mercedes-Benz EQS, Porsche Taycan, BMW i7 and i5 and the aging Model S, and it is sold in North America, Europe and the Middle East, with assembly in both Arizona and Saudi Arabia. Sales have softened as the brand's attention shifted to the Gravity, which has made discounts and lease deals a recurring theme. News here tracks updates and recalls, pricing moves, long-term ownership reports and the Air's fight to remain the efficiency benchmark among luxury EVs.
