Lucid is a newcomer to the automotive landscape. But the brand’s first product, the Air, is an impressive piece of machinery. The all-electric sedan can be had with various powertrain set-ups. Some versions can travel upwards of 516 miles on a single charge, while others have over 1,200 hp.

Regardless of which trim is chosen, all Airs have plenty of power, plenty of range, and cost plenty of money.

2023 Lucid Air Touring Review: Quick Take

Electric vehicles have transformed the idea of a startup automotive company.


Hyundai took decades to get where it is. Tesla helped Toyota build an electric RAV4 and crammed batteries in a rebodied Lotus before it truly changed the industry with the Model S.


Then there’s Lucid which, along with the similarly fresh-faced Rivian, have almost immediately set the bar in the segments in which they’ve launched products. A futuristic mega-sedan with big range and a deep roster of talent behind it, the Lucid Air is a luxury car like no other. It’s not quite perfect—but boy does it come close.

2022 Lucid Air Review: So Good That It Will Spoil Your Appetite

lucid air review specs pricing features videos and more

Lucid’s first effort at car building just embarrassed a lot of legacy automakers’ attempts at the same thing.

“Don’t eat that before dinner, it’ll spoil your appetite,” a familiar refrain of mothers worldwide. Mom knows best, the second a kid has scarfed down those sweets, they won’t want to eat anything else. In a way, the Lucid Air is kind of like that — it is so darn good that it’ll spoil the automotive enthusiast’s metaphorical appetite.

The Lucid Air Grand Touring (and Grand Touring Performance), is a large, fully-electric luxury sedan. It’s in the same vein and directly competes with the Tesla Model S, and Mercedes-Benz EQS. True, the Lucid Air has already been on sale for a short while, nabbing Motor Trend’s “Car of the Year” for 2022, but most Lucid Air on sale have been of the “Dream Edition”. The Dream Edition is a limited-run, limited-production only sold to early adopters and initial reservation holders. These Grand Touring and Grand Touring Performance trims are the top-of-the-line trim available to all customers. The two trims are mostly the same, save for the Grand Touring Performance special 21″ Aero wheels, and its goliath-sized 1,050 horsepower and $179,999 US ($242,000 CAD) base price. By contrast, the Grand Touring only has 819 horsepower and a trimmer $154,000 US price. But, when equipped with the 19″ wheels, the Grand Touring is rated for a range of 516 miles, compared to 446 for the Grand Touring Performance.
