Lucid New Lucid Gravity is seven-seat super-SUV to rival Tesla Model X

[Centurion]

This ticks all the boxes to be the best large SUV in the US: A three row one.

It has alot going for it and I don't doubt that price and trims will match the Air. A few things stand out.

The tail gate is cavernous. You could probably load a baby elephant into the car with ease. A 1,900lb pay load capacity and a flat load floor will make it possible to use the car as a workhorse. I particularly like that the third row seats fold flush into the load floor.

Proportions might be a touch too close to the R-Class of the past. However the design is nothing short of sophisticated and fuss free. I like it more than the EX90 and EQS SUV.

Well done Lucid!

Late 2024 launch will hopefully be a better timing than this financial quarter during which there EV scepticism.

One of the best looking EV SUVs ever.

... and now we go live, to a demonstration of just how low that bar is set...

How could the design be improved on?

LOL!

 

[Ghost1]

it is ok,but not great. Interior is boring and simple.

Amazing job, design, tech and software.
That range!
I’m very happy for them. I hope they will be able to meet the demand, the preorders will be a blast.

Together with the Rangee and EX90 it’s the best looking SUV IMO.

Stupid companies should learn from Lucid, how to create a minimalist interior with physical buttons, the presence of which is almost invisible.

 

[Gianclaudio]

SUVs are not my thing, but looks great.

It gives me some faint Renault Espace vibes, which is a bit funny, as the Lucid Air reminds me a tiny bit of Renault Vel Satis. May be someone at Lucid's design department likes the works of Le Quément.

In a world of iXs , XMs and EQS SUVs , yea , the bar was already really low

I can't agree, then it would look a bit like the iX, which would not be a good thing.

I mean... this bit

That's not to say it's particularly ugly, but if we're talking BEV EV's, I can't really think of one that looks particularly good, so being better than others isn't a massive achievement. The Gravity, for me, suffers the same problem as the Air - it starts alright at the front, then gets worse the further back you go.

XM isn't a BEV so I FTFY

Lucid is making a huge mistake by comparing it to a 9 years old car. As any other internet dude that does that is making a huge mistake.

Model X is no competition to anyone right now. Old and obsolete

The rounded silhouette reminds me of the first gen Audi Q7.

That was the last good looking SUV from Germany.
It just doesn’t age, except the facelift led design.

 

[Swiss_ZH]

When I just look at the silhouette of the vehicle and 'forget' the details of the side view, the design reminds me a bit of the Renault Espace.

Agree. Not even Musk cares about the model X. The Falcon door theatrics are long gone forgotten.

The rear might looks a bit over designed with the aim or reducing visual bulk. Overall, there aren't many practical EVs that have nailed the rear design.

Half the price and charges faster. It’s also good looking.

No.
