suite of driver-assist features that includes functions such as traffic-sign recognition, a driver-attention monitor, adaptive cruise control, active lane control, traffic jam assist, and automatic parking . DreamDrive Pro, which adds 32 sensors, including multiple cameras, radar units, ultrasonic sensors, and a lidar unit for more advanced driver-assist features, is available.
The Pure misses out on the expansive glass roof of other models, switching to a lighter aluminum unit instead. The interior is also lined in a mix of synthetic leather and fabric, versus the more premium stuff of other models. Upgrading to the Air Touring sees power climb to 620 hp and the EPA range estimate grow to 425 miles. With the extra power, the Air Touring should sprint to 60 mph from rest in 3.4 seconds. Lucid said the Touring is its most efficient model, requiring just 1 kwh for every 4.62 miles. This is helped by a record-low 0.197 coefficient of drag for the Pure and Touring grades.
The Touring also comes with the aluminum roof but buyers have the option of swapping it for the glass roof. This grade also gets improved materials in the cabin, such as full-grain nappa leather. Deep-pocketed buyers waiting for the Air Sapphire have some good news as well. Lucid announced on Tuesday that the 1,200-plus-hp Air will hit 60 mph from rest in 1.9 seconds, 100 mph in 3.9 seconds, and top out at 205 mph. Thanks to trick torque vectoring made possible by the dual motors at the rear axle, Lucid said Sapphire prototypes have run significantly faster laps at major racetracks than many hypercar models.
