The Lucid Air is the EV for those who crave luxury and range but can tolerate a few quirks.
Road-trip ready range · Stupendous acceleration
Tire roar at high speeds · Interior luxury inconsistencies
The 2026 Lucid Air defines itself with its mesmerizing range and opulent design that turns heads and piques curiosity. We were particularly taken by its ability to devour miles with ease, making it a road-tripper's dream, all while delivering a surge of 430 horses to the rear wheels. However, not all that glitters is gold; the tire roar at high speeds shatters the cabin's tranquility, and some interior touches miss the luxury mark we'd expect at this price point. This car is perfect for those who value cutting-edge electric performance and can overlook some minor imperfections.
Our pick: Touring ($80,400)
vs. 2026 Rivian R1T: The Lucid Air edges out the Rivian R1T with its superior range and refined elegance, though the Rivian offers more rugged, off-road versatility.
