Lucid EV Portfolio
Lucid is an EV brand owned by PIF and made in USA. This model portfolio showcases the shift toward zero-emission mobility.
Vehicles are organized by model family. A model family is an OEM-defined product program sharing a common platform, architecture, and market positioning, from which multiple body styles, variants, and trims are derived.

Platform = level of vehicle platform maturity or advancement, and its dominant system voltage.
Shared = ICE-derived | Dedicated = EV-native platform | SDV-Native = future-proof
E/E Architecture: degree of integration and maturity of the vehicle’s electronic/electric control systems (from Baseline legacy wiring to Advanced domain/zonal designs).
Baseline = Distributed ECUs | Modern = Domain-based | SDV-Native = Zonal-based with central compute
OTA Capability = scope of Over-The-Air updates supported — from Baseline basic infotainment to Advanced control and systems firmware.
Baseline = Infotainment/maps | Limited = Infotainment+ | Partial = Multiple systems | Advanced = Most systems | Full = Full-vehicle updateable
Battery Suppliers = primary traction battery suppliers across the model lineup.
Power Inverter Tech = power electronics technology used (silicon carbide SiC vs silicon), which affects efficiency and thermal performance.
IGBT = Conventional | SiC = High-efficiency | GaN = Next-generation, pilots
About Lucid
Lucid Motors is an American electric vehicle manufacturer headquartered in Newark, California, founded in 2007 by Bernard Tse and Sam Weng and led by CEO Peter Rawlinson, formerly chief engineer of the Tesla Model S. The company specializes in luxury, high performance electric vehicles and advanced powertrain technology. Lucid's mission is to "inspire the adoption of sustainable energy by creating the most captivating electric vehicles," and it has quickly become one of the most technologically advanced and respected pure EV brands in the global market.
Lucid's debut model, the Lucid Air, redefined expectations for electric luxury sedans when it launched in 2021. Built on the company's proprietary Lucid Electric Advanced Platform (LEAP), the Air features ultra compact motors, a high voltage electrical system, and an industry leading aerodynamic profile. The flagship Air Grand Touring offers up to 837 kilometers (520 miles) of EPA rated range- the longest of any production EV to date- while the Air Sapphire performance variant delivers over 895 kW (1,200 horsepower) and sub two second acceleration. Its 900 volt architecture supports ultra fast 300 kW DC charging, adding roughly 300 kilometers of range in 20 minutes.
The Air's interior combines minimalist design with advanced technology, including a 34 inch curved Glass Cockpit display, a floating center console, and premium materials emphasizing sustainability. Lucid's in house software platform enables over the air updates, adaptive driving modes, and continuous performance optimization. The vehicle's efficiency is enhanced by Lucid's proprietary motor and inverter design, which achieves industry leading energy density and thermal management.
Following the Air, Lucid expanded its lineup with the Lucid Gravity, a luxury three row electric SUV introduced in late 2024. Built on the same LEAP architecture, the Gravity blends long range efficiency with spacious utility, targeting the premium SUV market alongside the Rivian R1S and Tesla Model X. Lucid is also developing additional models on scalable platforms that will extend into mid priced segments later in the decade.
Lucid's vehicles are produced at the Lucid AMP-1 factory in Casa Grande, Arizona, the first greenfield EV manufacturing site in North America designed from the ground up for electric production. The company also supplies high performance battery systems to Formula E under a contract with its technology division, Lucid Powertrain Technology, formerly Atieva.
In 2023, Lucid strengthened its global position through a strategic partnership and capital support from the Public Investment Fund of Saudi Arabia (PIF), which owns a majority stake in the company. Lucid is constructing its second manufacturing facility, the AMP-2 plant, in King Abdullah Economic City (KAEC), Saudi Arabia, to produce vehicles for the Middle East and European markets.
Pure Electric Identity
Lucid Motors is a pure play electric automaker, developing all vehicles and technologies exclusively for zero emission mobility. Built on in house electric platforms with proprietary motors, batteries, and software, Lucid combines efficiency, luxury, and high performance to set new benchmarks for the premium electric vehicle segment.
