The 2026 Lucid Air in a Nutshell
While Lucid is a young company, it has made a solid first impression since it started rolling out cars in 2021. Paving the way was the Air, garnering critical acclaim along the way. It’s about the size of cars such as the Tesla Model S, BMW i5, and Mercedes-Benz EQE, and has impressed with its range, performance, design, and dynamics.
For the 2026 model year, the Lucid Air is available in four trim levels. There’s a choice of single, dual, or tri-motor options, and prices range from $70,900 all the way to, wait for it, $249,000.

Available via Lucid’s official website, there are lease deals for three out of the four trims of the Air. It starts with the Pure at $649 per month with $5,699 due at signing. Meanwhile, the Touring can be leased for $699 per month with $5,949 due at signing. As for the Grand Touring, it’s $999 per month with $7,299 due at signing.

2026 Lucid Air Highlights
The range kicks off with the Pure, with its single motor paired with an 88kWh battery. It’s good for 430 hp and 406 lb-ft of torque and a range of up to 419 miles. The Touring benefits from a second motor and a larger battery pack at 92kWh, bumping up power and range to 620 hp, 884 lb-ft of torque, and 406 miles.
If that’s not enough, the Grand Touring ups the ante by packing in a 112kWh battery, 819 hp, 885 lb-ft of torque, and an estimated range of up to 512 miles. But provided you have about a quarter-million dollars to blow on an EV, the Sapphire is the ultimate version of the Air. For about $250,000 fully loaded, you get three motors, a 118 kWh battery, 1,234 hp, and 1,430 lb-ft worth of pull. Using the term ‘stump-pulling’ would be a gross understatement with its factory-claimed 0-60 time of 1.89 seconds.
Other noteworthy features? A 34-inch screen dominates the dashboard that controls most functions, and the optional DreamDrive Pro package gives it a higher level of semi-autonomous driving. But the unique party piece here is the chassis with its adaptive suspension, not having to resort to air ride for a smooth and dynamic experience behind the wheel. Those who are looking for a car that can make flatulating sounds will be disappointed with the Air, though.

Final Thoughts
Granted, there were some, um, teething problems when the Air first rolled out, but the praise that’s been bestowed upon it is undeniable. It blows traditional ICE-powered plutocrat sedans out of the water and is close to perfection as a luxury electric sedan. Faults are few and far between, probably on the verge of nitpicking just to find something truly wrong with it.
It probably won’t win over the traditionalists, but to those with a more open mind, we urge you to try it.
