Lucid Motors, renowned for its innovative electric vehicles, has unveiled its latest addition to the Lucid Air lineup – the Lucid Air Pure RWD. With a starting price of $77,400, this rear-wheel drive variant offers a more affordable entry point into the world of Lucid electric vehicles. Priced $5,000 less than the dual-motor all-wheel drive model, the Lucid Air Pure RWD rounds out the Lucid Air series.

Impressive Range and Quick Charging

One of the standout features of the Lucid Air Pure RWD is its remarkable range. Equipped with 19-inch wheels, it boasts an estimated range of 410 miles according to the automaker.

Compact Battery Design and Aerodynamic Excellence

Lucid’s Air Pure RWD incorporates the automaker’s most compact battery pack to date. This design not only contributes to its impressive range but also enhances rear-seat legroom, offering a more spacious interior. Furthermore, Lucid claims that this model stands as the most aerodynamic car currently in production, emphasizing its commitment to efficiency and performance.

Comprehensive Standard Features

The Lucid Air Pure RWD comes equipped with several standard features, including Apple CarPlay, a 34-inch curved Glass Cockpit display, heated front and rear seats, a heated steering wheel, DreamDrive driver assistance systems, and the Lucid UX digital environment. While it remains a high-end vehicle, the introduction of the Air Pure RWD makes it more accessible for individuals seeking to experience a Lucid electric vehicle.
