Lucid Air

The 2027 Lucid Air starts at $70,900 MSRP for the Air Pure RWD and runs to $249,000 for the Air Sapphire AWD across the 4 configurations we track. With Lucid's $1,500 destination fee, that comes to $72,400 to $250,500 before tax, registration and options. By trim: Air Pure RWD, $70,900 ($72,400 with the destination fee); Air Touring AWD, $79,900 ($81,400 with the destination fee); Air Grand Touring AWD, $114,900 ($116,400 with the destination fee); Air Sapphire AWD, $249,000 ($250,500 with the destination fee).

The Lucid Air offers EPA-estimated range between 396 and 512 miles, depending on trim and wheel size. Real-world highway range at 70 mph is typically 10–15% lower than the EPA rating, and cold-weather range can drop an additional 20–30% in sub-freezing temperatures.

The Lucid Air hits 0-60 mph in 1.9 to 4.5 seconds depending on configuration — 1.9 seconds is the quickest of the 4 configurations we track. That quickest configuration is in supercar-acceleration territory thanks to electric motors' instant torque.

On a DC fast charger, the Lucid Air goes from 10% to 80% in roughly 20–29 minutes. At home on a Level 2 charger (240V), a full charge takes about 9–16 hours, depending on the trim. A standard 120V outlet (Level 1) adds only about 5–6 miles of range an hour (from EPA efficiency, depending on the trim), so it suits overnight top-ups rather than full charges.

Yes — the Lucid Air is offered in both rear-wheel-drive and all-wheel-drive configurations. RWD trims are typically less expensive and slightly more efficient; AWD trims add a second motor for better traction in snow/rain and faster acceleration.

No. The federal Clean Vehicle Credit (IRC §30D) expired on September 30, 2025 under the One Big Beautiful Bill Act — no new EVs purchased on or after October 1, 2025 qualify. State incentives remain available: see our /deals page for current rebates in California, Maine, Colorado, New Jersey, Massachusetts, and other states. The Section 30C EV Charger Tax Credit (for home charger installation) expired June 30, 2026 — if your charger was placed in service on or before that date, you can still claim it (30% up to $1,000) on your 2026 return via IRS Form 8911.

Real-world data from EV fleets suggests modern lithium-ion EV batteries (2020+) retain roughly 85–90% of their original capacity at 100,000 miles, above the 70% capacity floor in the Lucid Air battery warranty, and 80–85% at 200,000 miles.

The Lucid Air battery warranty is 8 years / 100,000 miles, with a 70% capacity floor. It covers capacity loss below that floor, and the coverage transfers to later owners. Compare it with every other EV in our EV battery warranty rankings.
