NEWARK,
Calif., Oct. 5, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Lucid
Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: LCID), setting new standards for luxury
electric experience with the Lucid Air, winner of the 2023 World
Luxury Car Award, today announced the launch of the new Lucid Air
Pure RWD, which completes the Air model lineup while offering
exceptional driving range of up to 410 miles, elegant design, and
outstanding driver engagement, all at a starting price of
$77,400.
"The new Lucid Air Pure RWD has it all; style and technology,
range and performance, space and practicality," said Peter Rawlinson, CEO and CTO of Lucid. "I'm
delighted that the most accessible Air surpasses the range of any
other electric car from any other brand. With a starting price of
$77,400, I believe that this new
addition to the Lucid Air lineup is the car so many have been
waiting for."
The Air Pure RWD is the most aerodynamic car currently in
production, featuring sleek and sporty exterior design. Its
luxurious and spacious interior, drawing inspiration from
Midcentury Modern design, features sustainably sourced quality
materials.
Lucid's game-changing proprietary EV technology means the Air
Pure comes with the freedom to drive longer distances with
confidence, and to spend less time charging, adding up to 150 miles
in less than 12 minutes with DC fast charging. The new Air Pure RWD
joins a lineup of Lucid Air models that have transformative range,
including the Lucid Air Grand Touring, with the most range
available in any EV today, estimated by the EPA at 516 miles.
Lucid's focus on innovation has improved nearly every aspect of
the vehicle for drivers and passengers. A groundbreaking electric
motor, engineered and manufactured in-house by Lucid, delivers
silent, driver-oriented performance. With a new battery pack unique
to the Air Pure RWD – Lucid's most compact battery pack to date –
rear-seat occupants can stretch their legs and enjoy limo-like
space, while the Air Pure RWD's cavernous trunk and frunk can
swallow all the luggage and gear for a road-tripping family of
four.
The Air Pure RWD is priced from $77,400 and comes very well equipped. Standard
features include Apple CarPlay ®, a 34-inch curved Glass Cockpit
display, heated front and rear seats and steering wheel, brilliant
nighttime illumination from Lucid's patented Micro Lens Array LED
headlights, the DreamDrive constellation of advanced driver
assistance systems, and the Lucid UX digital environment, designed
to grow and improve over time with regular over-the-air software
updates.
The Lucid Air Pure RWD is available now from the Lucid Motors
website and the Design Yours configurator, or from Lucid's growing
network of North American sales studios.
* Listed starting price excludes tax, title, license,
destination, and document fees.

is 410 miles, official EPA est. range is 419 miles. Range and
battery power vary with temperature, driving habits, charging and
battery condition and actual results will vary.
