The electric SUV market is crowded, but it’s rare to find a vehicle that genuinely balances performance, luxury, and utility without forcing you to pick two and sacrifice the third. Enter the Lucid Gravity Touring.
With a newly announced starting price of $79,900, Lucid isn’t just expanding its lineup; it is aggressively targeting the heart of the premium SUV segment. The Gravity Touring promises to be the volume seller that brings Lucid’s cutting-edge engineering to a wider audience, proving that you don’t need to spend six figures to get a world-class EV experience.
Here is why the Gravity Touring might just be the smartest buy in the electric luxury space right now.
In the world of high-end EVs, “base model” often implies sluggish performance. Not here. While the Touring slots below the Grand Touring trim, its specs remain supercar-adjacent relative to traditional SUVs.
- Power: 560 Horsepower
- Acceleration: 0–60 mph in just 4.0 seconds
- Drivetrain: Dual-motor All-Wheel Drive (AWD)
For a family hauler, 4.0 seconds is blistering. It provides more than enough passing power for highway merging and carries the signature effortless driving dynamics Lucid is known for.
Range anxiety is rapidly becoming a thing of the past, and Lucid is leading that charge. The Gravity Touring is equipped with an 89 kWh battery pack that delivers an EPA-estimated 337 miles of range.
Even more impressive is how fast you can get back on the road. Thanks to Lucid’s 900V architecture (a standout in the industry), the Gravity Touring offers:
- Ultra-Fast Charging: Up to 300 kW charging speed.
- The 15-Minute Rule: Add up to 200 miles of range in just 15 minutes.
- Native NACS Support: It comes ready for the Tesla Supercharger network right out of the box—no adapters required for the vast majority of updated stations.
The “Gravity” name implies weight, but the interior feels like pure air. Lucid has maximized interior volume using their miniaturized motors, resulting in a cabin that feels significantly larger than its exterior footprint suggests.
- Seating: Available in both 5-seater and 7-seater configurations.
- Cargo Space: A massive 120 cubic feet of total usable cargo space (with seats folded).
- The Frunk: An 8.1 cubic-foot front trunk that is actually usable—capable of serving as a bench seat when parked (great for tailgating or charging stops).
Whether you are hauling hockey gear, camping equipment, or seven adults, the Gravity Touring refuses to compromise on space.
Inside, the Touring trim retains the “Clearview Cockpit” that defines the Lucid experience.
- Display: A floating 34-inch curved 6K OLED screen that presents critical driving info and media in stunning resolution.
- OS: Running on Lucid UX 3.0, which supports over-the-air updates to keep the car feeling new for years.
- Materials: While it swaps some of the ultra-exotic materials of the Grand Touring for “PurLuxe” (a high-quality synthetic leather alternative), the fit and finish remain decidedly premium.
The Lucid Gravity Grand Touring offers more range (450+ miles) and more power (800+ hp), but it commands a significantly higher price tag (approx. $94,900).
For most drivers, the Gravity Touring is the sweet spot. It saves you $15,000 while still delivering 300+ miles of range, 4-second acceleration, and the same stunning design. It is a luxury SUV that doesn’t ask you to compromise on the things that actually matter in daily driving.
At $79,900, the Lucid Gravity Touring isn’t just competing with other EVs; it’s putting traditional luxury SUVs on notice.
