Lucid Motors has recently unveiled updates for its MY2024 Air models, expanding the range of choices for customers while maintaining the signature stylish design of their luxury sedans. One notable enhancement is the introduction of additional features, providing more luxury options for the Air Pure model without the need to upgrade to a higher-priced variant.
The entry-level Lucid Air Pure, priced at $77,400, offers an impressive package with 430 horsepower, a 4.5-second 0-60 mph sprint, and a remarkable 419-mile range on a single charge, courtesy of its 88 kWh battery. Noteworthy upgrades for this model include the Comfort & Convenience Package, allowing buyers to enjoy heated rear seats, soft-closing doors, four-zone climate control, powered rear window sunshades, and a heated steering wheel.
Furthermore, the base Lucid Air Pure can be personalized with 14- or 20-way power-adjustable front seats, new interior colors and materials, and ventilated front seats featuring a massage function. Optional extras such as Nappa leather and premium natural grains are available at an additional cost, showcasing Lucid’s commitment to offering a customizable and luxurious driving experience.
For those seeking all-wheel drive and enhanced performance, the Lucid Air Touring, priced at $85,900, steps up with 620 horsepower, accelerating to 60 mph in just 3.4 seconds. Although it falls slightly short of the Pure’s range at an estimated 411 miles, the Touring compensates with additional luxuries, including the Comfort & Convenience Package, heated precision wipers, and a power-operated frunk.
The Lucid Air Grand Touring, anticipated for MY2024, maintains its remarkable 819 horsepower and three-second flat 0-60 mph acceleration. While specific details such as range and battery capacity remain undisclosed, the Grand Touring stands out with standard 12-way power-operated front seats, PurLuxe leather-free upholstery, and a body-colored aluminum roof. Optional features include a glass roof, extended premium natural grain and Nappa leather upholstery, ventilated and massaging front seats, and a new Fathom Blue paint finish.
Lucid’s 2023 Grand Touring achieved an impressive 516-mile range, and any enhancements for MY2024 would be eagerly awaited by potential buyers. The Lucid Air Grand Touring price is set to be announced in early 2024.
The Lucid Air Sapphire, a relatively new addition, retains its groundbreaking specifications, designed to compete with the Tesla Model S Plaid. With a tri-motor powertrain delivering 1,234 horsepower, the Sapphire accelerates from 0 to 60 mph in an astonishing 1.89 seconds and achieves 427 miles of range on a single charge. This high-performance luxury sedan showcases Lucid’s commitment to pushing the boundaries of electric vehicle capabilities.
Looking ahead, Lucid Motors is poised for a busy year with plans to introduce the Gravity SUV in 2024. This luxury SUV promises spacious interiors, accommodation for seven occupants, strong performance, and an impressive range. While a Lucid pickup truck remains on the horizon, the company is expected to unveil more affordable models in the years to come, solidifying its position in the competitive electric vehicle market.
