The American manufacturer, Lucid which recently partnered with Aston Martin is determined to relaunch itself and compete with one of the leaders in electric vehicles, Tesla.
Last November, the American manufacturer Lucid, led by Peter Rawlinson, announced the release of its upcoming SUV, the Gravity. A new model for the brand that was named Luxury Car of the Year.
In an interview with our British colleagues at Auto Express, the CEO explained that a new Lucid range of four vehicles will be released soon. A small detail, Peter Rawlinson announced that two of the vehicles could potentially compete with Tesla, particularly the Model 3 and Y.
How?
Speaking to the same media, the CEO discussed pricing. A price that could be around 50,000 euros. In comparison, the Model Y Range costs the same amount in the United States. The price may surprise you, especially since the American brand is known for being a luxury car manufacturer. The Air models start at €128,000. The Gravity model could be around €80,000.
A significant price difference between the older vehicles and the new ones. Therefore, a desire to lower prices for upcoming vehicles. However, it will not be among those who will reduce prices to €25,000 for an electric car.
As a reminder, in March 2023, the company had to lay off nearly 20% of its staff.
