Hi, this is Wayne again with a topic “A ride in Lucid Motors’ Air prototype”.
Hey it’s Andy here at the verge we’re here with lucid motors, checking out their new air prototype electric vehicle. They hope to be Tesla at their own game and what better way to do it than by hiring a lot of their old engineers. So we’re going to go check it out and see how it works. The pickup on this car is really quite impressive. When you accelerate it before, I felt myself being pressed back into my seat.
It really kind of tacked away. Lucid Motors is a small electric car. Startup, based in Los Angeles, California, it’s among the latest in a wave of electric car startups to spring up with sleek dynamic, attractive sports car models. A couple months ago, they released their first production car.
The air lucid thinks that the air could be a tesla killer and they should know the company’s chief technology officer. Peter Rawlinson is the former lead engineer on the Model. S lucid, joins Karma next evie in Faraday future and their quest to steal some of Tesla’s shine. As a result, the electric horsepower wars are heating up and lucid as a contender, with its claim that the car will make 1,000 horsepower and raise from zero to 60 miles per hour in less than three seconds and boy was it fast.
We took it for a spin down the Las Vegas Strip during CES. It suffice to say this car could cook it flew down straightaways and blazed around corners with torque to burn a few times. I almost ended up in Peter Rawlinson slap. The air is super roomy loose.
It says that was part of their goal to make a larger than normal interior to put the driver at ease, unlike their competitors like Faraday future lucid, seems, more grounded in reality, steering clear of making lavish promises about the future of mobility and how they’re gon na Transform transportation they just want to sell a car and fortunately, for them it seems like they have a real winner on their hands. It was a sweet ride. I can’t wait to take another spin. .
