A dual-motor powertrain is predicted to deliver 828 hp from dual motors which, together with the range estimate, is according to what Lucid claimed when the Gravity was first shown in 2023. The automaker said on the time that launch versions would do 0-60 mph in lower than 3.5 seconds. A prototype drive earlier this 12 months hinted at fairly sporty handling as well.
The Grand Touring will likely be followed by a $79,900 Touring grade, arriving for the 2026 model 12 months. Lucid hasn’t confirmed any additional variants, nevertheless it’s possible the automaker will eventually introduce a lower-priced Pure grade and a tri-motor Sapphire performance version, matching the present Air lineup.
The primary customer Gravity models have Combined Charging Standard (CCS) ports, but Lucid confirmed in September that the Gravity will get a Tesla North American Charging Standard (NACS) port starting in 2025.

Lucid will next move closer to the mass market with three additional models. The primary will likely be a $50,000 mid-size SUV called the Lucid Earth, which is predicted to begin production in late 2026.
The Earth and Gravity SUVs will likely open up a much bigger market than the Air, of which Lucid delivered just 2,781 units within the third quarter of 2024. Even that was up 90% from the identical period a 12 months ago, when Lucid was likely still working to ramp up production.
