The new 2025 Lucid Air Pure is the most efficient
and thus most sustainable vehicle made, with 420 miles of
EPA-estimated range, a powerful new infotainment processor, and
heat pump as standard, still priced from just $69,900.
NEWARK,
Calif., July 16, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Lucid Group,
Inc. (NASDAQ: LCID), maker of the world's most advanced electric
vehicles, today announced updates for the 2025 model year that
further raise the bar, enabling a landmark 5.0 miles per kilowatt
hour of energy and record 146 MPGe EPA rating for the Air Pure. The
heat pump first employed on Lucid Sapphire now becomes standard
across the lineup, improving real-world range, while a powerful new
infotainment processor provides improved user experience.
"The advancements introduced across the Lucid Air lineup for
2025 further cement our leadership position," said Peter Rawlinson, CEO and CTO of Lucid. "Lucid
Air is the very embodiment of our relentless approach to
optimization, enabling Air Pure to use less electrical energy than
any other vehicle for any journey taken, A to B."
Record-Breaking Energy Efficiency
Enabled by further
enhancements of Lucid's groundbreaking technology, the 2025 Lucid
Air Pure equates to the most energy-efficient vehicle ever, the
first to achieve 5 miles of range per kilowatt hour of energy –
via an EPA-estimated range of 420 miles from an 84 kWh
battery pack – reaching a major milestone in the global effort for
sustainable transportation.
This means that the new Lucid Air Pure requires less electrical
energy for any journey taken, A to B, than any other vehicle on the
market today. Consuming less energy to travel further enables
electric vehicles to deliver the range that consumers expect while
reducing the size of costly battery packs. Reducing battery pack
size also enables building more cars from a given quantity of raw
materials. When it is time to recharge, the smaller pack in Lucid
Air Pure reduces the demands on public power grids and enables
adding more miles with less energy while fast charging on road
trips.
Range to Spare, Even in Cold Air
The Lucid Air model
lineup offers outstanding range even in cold conditions, thanks to
the inclusion of an energy-saving heat pump. First introduced in
the Air Sapphire and then added to the range-king Air Grand Touring
for 2024, this ultra-compact, high-performance heat pump is now
standard on every Lucid Air.
A Leap in Digital Performance
Furthermore, every new
2025 Lucid Air model now receives new-generation control hardware.
The result is triple the processing power and twice the memory
compared to the previous generation, for a significantly enhanced
and faster in-car infotainment experience.
All models, from Air Pure to Air Grand Touring, will now come
standard with Lucid's DreamDrive Premium ADAS (Advanced Driver
Assistance System), which includes 3D Surround View Monitoring,
live Blind Spot Display and more.
The in-car entertainment experience is also enhanced for Air
Grand Touring models with Lucid's advanced SurrealSound Pro sound
system now standard.
2025 Lucid Air Lineup
Grand Touring. With an
EPA estimated 512 miles of range, the 2025 Lucid Air Grand Touring
