Lucid Unveils Details of New SUV in the Works
With the Gravity three-row SUV nearing production, Lucid has provided a sneak peek of another SUV currently in development. While the vehicle has yet to be officially named, the silhouette offers some intriguing insights into what to expect from the luxury electric car manufacturer.
Distinct Lucid Design
The new SUV from Lucid features the signature rounded corners and unique vent-like dimples on the hood that are characteristic of the brand. However, this model stands out with its curvier design compared to the sleek Air and the Gravity SUV. The roofline dips towards the rear, hinting at a two-row configuration due to the lower roof height. The rear haunches are also more exaggerated, adding a touch of sportiness to the overall look.
Innovative Technology
During a recent presentation, Lucid revealed some key details about the upcoming SUV. The vehicle will be equipped with a new motor and drive unit called Atlas, which promises to be more compact and efficient than previous models. The Atlas system is expected to deliver around 335 horsepower, making it suitable for midsize SUVs as well as entry-level versions of the Air and Gravity.
Anticipated Release
While specific details about the new SUV are limited, Lucid hinted at a late 2026 release date, with a possible debut set for next year. The L.A. Auto Show seems to be a likely venue for the official unveiling of the vehicle. In terms of pricing, the SUV is expected to start at less than $50,000, making it an attractive option in the luxury electric SUV market.
Potential Name
Although the new SUV from Lucid has yet to be named, a recent trademark filing for the name “Earth” has sparked speculation. If chosen, Earth would maintain the elemental theme established by the Air and Gravity models, further solidifying Lucid’s commitment to innovation and sustainability.
Exciting Future Ahead
As Lucid continues to expand its lineup with the introduction of new SUV models, the future looks promising for the electric car manufacturer. With a focus on cutting-edge technology, distinctive design, and eco-friendly practices, Lucid is poised to make a significant impact in the automotive industry with its upcoming SUV release. Stay tuned for more updates on this highly anticipated vehicle from Lucid Motors.
