Lucid Motors began manufacturing its Gravity SUV last week, and now the EPA has finalized the vehicle’s all-electric range, which is 450 miles on a full charge. The new official estimate is slightly above the 440 miles originally advertised by Lucid. The company’s Air sedan can go up to 512 miles, depending on the trim.

Lucid CEO Peter Rawlinson announced the updated Gravity range figure today via LinkedIn and also boasted that the vehicle only uses “half of earth’s precious resources compared to some competitors.”

Last week, Lucid had a ceremonious start of production at its Arizona factory to commemorate the first Gravity SUVs coming off the line. The Gravity features three rows of seating plus a frunk that’s good for storage or seating when parked. It is also the first vehicle from Lucid to get a native NACS port for charging at Tesla’s Superchargers.

Today marks an exciting landmark for our company. Production of the Lucid Gravity is now underway at our factory in Arizona!​

With big range, however, comes big prices. Lucid started taking orders for the Gravity on November 7th, with initial configurations starting at $94,900 for the Grand Touring models. The cheaper $79,900 Touring versions won’t be available until late 2025. Lucid is also planning a cheaper midsized SUV for late 2026 that’ll cost around $50,000.
