California-based Lucid Motors has announced the new Lucid Air Grand Touring Performance which delivers 1,050 horsepower. The dual-motor all-electric Lucid Air Grand Touring Performance is the most powerful electric vehicle currently available in North America.
Two of Lucid’s proprietary electric motors – one at each axle – propel the Air Grand Touring Performance from 0 to 60 miles per hour in just 2.6 seconds.
Customer deliveries in the U.S. are slated to begin in June 2022. Lucid Air Grand Touring customer deliveries already in progress.
Both models include ultra-fast 900V+ charging systems, enabling users to add up to 300 miles in 21 minutes at a 350 kW DC fast charger.
Peter Rawlinson, CEO and CTO, Lucid Group, says: “Lucid Air Grand Touring Performance answers the strong demand we continue to see for higher-performance versions of the Lucid Air. The remarkable speed with which we are able to conceive and bring this model to market is possible only because of Lucid’s high degree of vertical integration and in-house production of our proprietary EV powertrain and battery pack technology.”
He adds: “Lucid Air Grand Touring epitomizes the promise of the Lucid brand – a triumvirate of industry-leading range and efficiency, stellar driving dynamics, and luxurious interior space. This unparalleled fusion of attributes is the product of Lucid’s groundbreaking in-house technology, exemplified by our miniaturized drive units with unrivaled power density and race-proven 900V+ battery and power architecture.”
The company‘s first model. Lucid Air, is produced at Lucid’s new factory in Casa Grande, Arizona, US.
