Overview

  • Lucid Air owners can connect to more than 23,000 Tesla Supercharger DC fast chargers in North America starting July 31 through a Lucid-approved NACS-to-CCS adapter priced at $220.
  • The Air charges at a maximum of 50 kW on Tesla Superchargers—about 200 miles of range per hour—due to a voltage mismatch between the 400 V Superchargers and Lucid’s 924 V battery system.
  • Lucid’s 2026 Touring trim gains over a 6% efficiency improvement for a 431-mile EPA-estimated range while the Grand Touring retains its 512-mile lead and adds 20-way power memory and massaging front seats.
  • All 2026 Air models now include a mobile charging cable and feature an upgraded air conditioning compressor for enhanced cooling performance and reduced cabin noise.
  • Prices for the 2026 Air rise by $1,000 on Pure and Touring trims and $4,000 on Grand Touring, and Lucid introduces optional 19-inch “Aeronaut” wheels in Platinum or Stealth finishes.
