2025 Lucid Gravity Debuts As Cadillac Escalade IQ Rival

All-electric car maker Lucid has unveiled the 2025 Lucid Gravity, offered as the company’s very first SUV. Highlights include an estimated range-per-charge of more than 440 miles, as well as a sprint to 60 mph in less than 3.5 seconds. Pricing will start under $80,000. When it officially goes on sale, the new Lucid Gravity will rival the Cadillac Escalade IQ.

Exterior of the 2025 Lucid Gravity.

The exterior of the 2025 Lucid Air features the company’s characteristic streamlined design language, with flowing, sculpted shapes front to back. The roofline is low, while the front overhang is short, pushing the profile out in the rear. Lucid says the shape offers a targeted drag coefficient of under 0.24.

There are three rows of seating in the cabin, with enough space to sit seven passengers. Folding the second- and third-row seats flat provides upwards of 112 cubic feet of cargo room. Infotainment spec includes a curved 34-inch OLED display that stretches across the dash, also serving as the digital readout for the driver, while a tablet-style touchscreen is mounted lower and to the right of the steering wheel.

Lucid says the new Gravity features “a brand-new platform developed from the ground up as a sporty SUV,” while the powertrain features “the most power-dense EV motors in production globally.” The system also includes an updated 900V electrical architecture. The sprint to 60 mph takes less than 3.5 seconds, while payload capacity is over 1,500 pounds, with towing over 6,000 pounds. The battery can also add as much as 200 miles in 15 minutes o a DC fast charger.

An enhanced, adaptive air suspension package called Zero Gravity is optional. Drivers can manually select suspension settings for either more ride height while going off-road, or lower settings for improved handling and high-speed stability.

The new 2025 Lucid Air will go on sale late next year, with a starting pricing under $80,000.

  1. I love how it looks from the front. Overall the LUCID Gravity looks way better than the overpriced Cadillac IQ.

  2. Escalade is much bigger. This is a Symboliq(XT6 replacement) competitor.

  3. So, let me get this straight. It’s just one more SUV. It’s ugly. They can’t afford to fully paint it and thus stick black plastic s**t all over it. And it starts at 80 grand.

    Are you (they) out of their minds? Huge pass.

    As much as I like the Lucid Air for being a sedan and having a look that stands out, it’s still too high priced. But at least it’s not an SUV.

  4. too low in height to be an SUV. Looks like the failed mercedes hearse wagon. Fails on the eye test, but looks like a beauty queen compared to the CELEST “Hide your eyes” IQ.

    1. “too low in height to be an SUV”

      SUV just means it has 4 doors and a hatch now.

  8. Looks beautiful and sleek. Most importantly the range may be the best of all competitors.

  9. This is truly not an Escalade IQ competitor and more a competitor to the EQS. Don’t know what to think about this vehicle but it should add sales volume to the automaker because its a CUV which the public crave anymore.

  10. Lucid should consider giving consumers who pre-order the Gravity a significant discount!!!

  11. Respectfully… is Lucid still a thing?
    The prospect of future service parts supply seems highly speculative…
