• Lucid proved its capability in producing an extraordinary, acclaimed luxury EV sedan; now Gravity opens Lucid to the far larger SUV market.

There’s a lot to like about Lucid vehicles, and this one looks great. Probably a bigger market for this than the Air. That said, they need smaller, less costly vehicles. This will still be a tough sell relative to the competition.

 

The price is just way too high IMHO. If I'm paying $80K, it's tried and true Model X

 

The back looks straight off a Lincoln.

 

Minivan, expensive minivan

 

Couple of early video first drives / looks. It does have Kia Carnival vibes.

 

I'm just not a big fan of Lucid's styling in general. Perhaps it'll grow on me but I don't really love the Air. I respect the engineering tho and I like that they are moving into higher margin product categories, hopefully it means they will still exist in a few years.

 

the launch

 

what competition?

r1s not as big or efficient.
x not as roomy or efficient.
lyriq not as big or efficient.

compared to what for all its capabilities?

the X seems very old compared to this. nd certainly nowhere near as nice inside. and the number of problems owners have is huge. i was interested in an x but... no.

first 30 seconds of throttle house video is hilarious.

 

the 35" 'top' screen AND the large center screen combo is ridiculous.

 

Best part of the video!

See my answers above. Bottom line is, I have no idea if Lucid will even be around in the next 5 years. The only thing keeping that ship from sinking is Saudi Money, which is bound to dry up eventually. I know exactly what I'm getting in a Model X. And if I'm spending $80K plus, I want to invest in a winner. I don't gamble

 

It's nothing but eye candy Bling. It's what I absolutely hated about the i7, they are hiding their shortcomings behind giant screens with too much going on. I mean this is more screens than our engineers have on their desks LoL

 

just saw on throttle house video it has air suspension unlike the 'air' sedan

 

Watched a few more videos and if you add the sliding doors it really is 90% minivan. I understand it's for aero reasons, but SUV it is not

 

I quite like the look of this, and like it more than the Air. If it is priced at the 80K area, I don't think that is an unreasonable asking price.
