Look out, Tesla, Lucid has a new SUV. The 2025 Lucid Gravity is a three-row luxury electric SUV that could be much better than any other vehicle in its class.

If you though the Lucid Air was and incredible EV that set the bar much higher than any other company, you’re sure to admire the new Gravity. Lucid has done it again, giving us an SUV that could reset the market and show the luxury EV world where their standard should be. This new EV is an evolution from the Air, not just an SUV built to share the same platform.

A better entry

The only demerit of the Lucid Air is the low ride height and doors. This makes it difficult for drivers of nearly every height to enter and exit without hitting their heads. The driving position is also a little tight. Thankfully, the new Gravity SUV changes that. This SUV has a low and smooth look, but it also has a larger ingress and egress position to make it much easier for passengers to enter and exit without too much trouble.

The new Lucid Gravity comes in two suspension heights, making it easy to have a low-riding sporty model or a high-riding version that could be good for light off-road driving. With the lower suspension and smaller wheels, the Gravity appears to be almost carlike, which could make it a good choice for many families.

The seating is versatile

The Gravity comes in two forms, one with seating for five people across two rows and the other offering seven seats across three rows. There could be a six-seat version that arrives later on, but initially, this SUV will be set up to seat five or seven passengers. This means you can have a large cargo hold for your stuff or have a third-row seat for those times when you need more seating for your family and friends.

Technologically advanced

We expect the new Lucid SUV to be a technological marvel, but this SUV does something that you might not expect. It can be had with an available rear-wheel steering system and an air suspension that automatically adjusts based on speed. These tech items improve the ride quality, low-speed handling, and complete driving experience to give you the feeling you want when you get behind the wheel of this new electric SUV.

Expected driving range

The Lucid Air set the bar high. This incredible electric vehicle came with the best driving range in the industry and no other EV found a way to match it. The new Lucid Gravity should have a driving range of 440 miles on a full charge, which is more than enough to allow anyone to drive all week long without recharging.

This driving range is better than the Tesla Model X with 350 miles and the Rivian R1S with a claimed 400 mile driving range. Lucid claims the Gravity can add 200 miles of driving range while charging a 300-kw charge rate. This charging only takes about 15 minutes, which is impressively fast.

The new platform used for the Gravity gives it improved motors when compared to the Air. This SUV also has a low drag coefficient of only 0.24 on some trims, which is incredibly aerodynamic. Unlike the Air, the Gravity won’t have two different rear floor heights based on the battery pack. In the Air, you gain three inches of legroom in the rear seat area with the smaller battery pack, but that won’t be a concern for the Gravity.

Not meant for the trails

The new Lucid Gravity is a capable SUV that could probably go off-road, but the price and luxury build make that a big no-no with this vehicle. Still, the Gravity can tow up to 6,000 pounds, which is pretty good for an SUV that’s meant to be kept on the roads. Expect this new electric SUV to rocket to 60 mph in as little as 3.5 seconds.
