"I'm delighted that production cars endowed with this level of efficiency are currently driving off our factory line." Our technology will allow for increasingly lighter, more efficient, and less expensive EVs, and today represents a major step in our journey to expand the accessibility of more sustainable transportation," said Peter Rawlinson, CEO and CTO, Lucid Group. For example, our Lucid Air Grand Touring has an official EPA rating of 516 miles of range with a 112-kWh battery pack, giving it an industry-leading efficiency of 4.6 miles per kWh. "The proprietary EV technology that Lucid has developed will make it possible to travel more miles using less battery energy. In total, Lucid has over 13,000 reservations for the Air to work through at the moment, which will also include the third Grand Touring version of the sedan. The Air Dream Edition Range, meanwhile, will serve up the top 520-mile EPA-rated marathons. So there is definitely a range and horsepower war that's unfolding at the moment, with Lucid aiming to ward off challengers with generous helpings of both. Lucid will first focus on producing 520 examples of the Air Dream Edition, 500 of which had all been reserved for a while now, including the Air Dream Edition Performance with 1111 hp on tap and 471 miles of range. The luxury sedan promises a range of up to 520 miles courtesy of a 113-kWh battery-the most range offered by any EV at the moment. The first examples rolled off the production line earlier this week, with deliveries scheduled to begin at the end of next month. Lucid has begun production of the long-awaited Air sedan in Arizona this week, fielding a competitor destined to be endlessly compared to the Tesla Model S and Mercedes-AMG EQS.
