    Really nice, powerful, sedan! I hope Lucid survives as a company because these are the types of aspirational products people dream about owning.

    Seen one of these on the road months ago and this video does it no justice. It was strikingly beautiful. I could not take my eyes off of it.

    I would love to have a go in one of these here in the UK. When will Lucid start making RHD versions?

      I live in a resort town in Florida. The gold diggers are pissed because they say there’s a lot of millionaires driving around old Rusty pick up trucks. They can’t figure out who the rich ones that were the poor ones are.

    I wish Lucid did trade-ins. I would definitely switch my Touring for that Sapphire. 🙏🏿

    Watching you move your hands off the wheel doing 65 around the curves is scary. Take a race driving class or watch some videos.

    This car is literally top of the line when it comes to efficiency and performance. Too bad it's out of reach of everyone but the richest CEO's and Arab Sheik's... But now that it's owned by The Kingdom maybe Lucid will develop some cache in the region with upmarket buyers looking to support the region instead of The West... And hopefully Western EV buyers will get over the concept of Lucid still existing in 10 years because with that kind of backing it no doubt will!

      I doubt someone who spends 250k on a car cares about buying a new set of tires every year.

    This car is amazing! Best Part is you can buy 90% of this car except for Speed and some fancy features get for mid 60s in Lucid Air Pure RWD. You need to only have test drive to believe it.

    Lucid Air Sapphire ist a superb car obviously.
    That aside: Is Electrek now performing Ads for Automobile Industry? Like trad. Car Media did for decades?
    Because if you want to stay the trusted, respected, independent, leading news platform for EVs you used to be, such videos have to stop immediately.
    I hope

      Where I live in Florida, you better start with millions of dollars to buy a house $250,000 is the price of kind of a small lot of land unless you want to go live with the meth head trailer park trash.

    Too much money for a car. The sad part is two years after purchase it loses 50% of value. So pleased I no longer own a Lucid GT. Too many bugs 15 months ago.

      Those impractical and environmentally unfriendly toys is what allows one of the few things where trickle down actually works, technology, the rich always subsidized technology by being first adopters from personal computers, cell phones, flat screen TVs, cars, electricity in your house, etc., etc.
      Without their funding of technology and the eccentric visionaries behind it we would have been lucky to have made it to the industrial age.
