Therefore, Lucid has developed an exclusive Boost Boost technology, which has refused to provide wired details to increase the power of 500 volt to reach the package's 926 volt. It only said that it uses the rear engine part to do so, perhaps through one of the coils acting as a DC-DC inverter. The Boost function provides up to 225 kW from a V3 supercharged.
Lucid also moved the charging gate of gravity from the front to the left to the left, just like today on Tesla cars, allowing the use of existing Tesla V3 super pressure with their typical short cable. While the two pre-manufactured cars at the Drive event have both ports, any gravity you can buy is accompanied by the Nacs connector along with the CCS-Nacs converter. And, praiseworthy, the company has worked with Tesla to perform the integrated software that allows the plug and charging appropriately at Tesla Chargeers: car plug, removing, and all the authentication and payments are made on the back, automatically.
Keep the battery 12 Volt healthy
Another electrical procedure: The gravity uses the Micro DC-DC microphone converter to shrink Gravity 12 volt battery from the pull battery instead of recharging them periodically. That lasts a lot of life expectancy of any 12 volt battery, a century technology that is not designed to deeply discharged regularly before recharging. Why are two 12V batteries? For backup, so it can park safely on the side of the road even when a battery is broken in an accident.
Lucid said that the Gravity Suite sensor, 12 and two internal cameras, 5 radar, a lidar and 12 ultrasound sensors, will allow level 3 autonomy, it still offers some of its high -end ADA features through air updates. The full set of DreamDrive 2 Pro is planned for autumn delivery; It not only includes hand -free cruise control, but also a unique warning warning to emit alarm sound if the driver is at risk of scratching a wheel on the curb.
Not a SUV Butch, but what is it?
EV design sometimes takes use of packaging opportunities, with a short bevel and a longer cabin (see Tesla Model 3Then Jaguar I-Pace). Other manufacturers (such as BMW) avoid anything that their EV is not regular cars, which means that the ratio can contain the first combustion engine. Lucid sat firmly in the first camp. The back door is very large, accessing the third line is as easy as any means we have tested, and colleagues 6'6 “were able to climb on that third line and sit with some comfort.
The polite of the lucid motives

It is all about obstacles, or more precisely to reduce all levels that can last to squeeze larger range from a certain battery capacity. Lucid quoted the towing coefficient of 0.24, notably for a large car, although CD figures from different manufacturers could not be compared due to different measurement methods. Combined with significant light weight of only 6,000 pounds (thanks to aluminum construction), slippery design creates an efficiency of up to 3.6 miles/kWh (450 miles from 123 kWh package). It varies with the wheel size (smaller than better) and the passenger configuration (five places better than seven).
The drive is smaller than it
Our car, a seven -seat model with a 20 -inch and 21 -inch wheel (front and rear), only shows 2.22 miles/kWh after driving the energy through the hill foot of Los Olivos, California. But our driver is almost not typical of the rich suburban family missions that gravity will probably see.
We have done a number of accelerated activities, put it into the legal speed on the highway to access the limit and cycling regularly between three drives: smooth (normal), fast (sports) and sprint (fastest). Slide for a busy trip, while Swift feels more controlled and accurate. Sprint is the most German of the three. We mainly switch between the last two, but the difference between them is more sophisticated and less pronounced than other controlled other EVs.
