The first Lucid Motors Gravity SUV has rolled off the company’s production line in Casa Grande, Arizona, according to a post on X. The company will now set its aim on ramping up production of the new electric vehicle and making the first deliveries — though the company is staying quiet about when it will hand those first vehicles over to customers.
It’s a crucial milestone for Lucid, which is banking on the Gravity’s SUV form factor turning it into a bigger success than its lone current model, the Air sedan.
The Air has been off to a much slower start than Lucid originally predicted. And while sales have increased the last few quarters, the company has kept going back to its majority owner, Saudi Arabia’s sovereign wealth fund, for more money to make sure it can stay afloat through the first year of Gravity production and deliveries.
The initial Grand Touring version of the Gravity starts at $94,900. The company boasts that it can travel more than 440 miles on a full charge. Two electric motors — one front, one rear — help it create the equivalent of 828 horsepower. And it comes standard with two rows but can optioned to have three.
A cheaper version of the Gravity is slated to roll off Lucid’s production lines in “late 2025,” and will start at $79,900.
