Additionally, we offer an overview of the full specifications, an image gallery, detailed information about charging performance, and some online reviews. Our sections include:

Performance

The Lucid Air Dream Edition Performance delivers a jaw-dropping maximum power of 828 KW (1126 hp/1110 bhp) and a massive total torque of 1390 Nm (1026 lb-ft). This powerhouse can rocket from 0 to 100 km/h (0 to 62 mph) in just 2.7 seconds, showcasing its astonishing acceleration. Additionally, it achieves a top speed of 270 km/h (168 mph), making it a true marvel of engineering and performance.

Battery, Range, and Charging

The high-capacity battery has a gross capacity of 118.0 kWh and a net usable capacity of 117.0 kWh, providing a 1.0 kWh buffer (0.8%) for battery protection. Operating at a nominal voltage of 800 volts, it qualifies as an 800-volt battery system. This high voltage is pivotal in enabling the system’s charging capabilities.

Under the WLTP (Worldwide Harmonized Light Vehicles Test Procedure) standard, the vehicle’s range varies between 861 to 828 km (535-515 miles), depending on the specific configuration and options, such as wheel size. Larger wheels can increase energy consumption and subsequently reduce the overall range. The vehicle’s energy consumption is rated at 13.6 kWh/100 km for the base model and 14.1 kWh/100 km for the top-tier model under the WLTP test cycle. This range is amongst the longest in its class, and the high efficiency makes it one of the most economical vehicles in its category. For more details about the range, see real-world data and range listings on this model’s range and consumption page.

The vehicle supports fast DC charging with a maximum power of kW. Charging from 0% to 100% takes approximately 79 minutes, while a more typical scenario from 10% to 80% takes 33 minutes with an average charging speed of 147 kW. Considering an additional 5 minutes for each charging stop due to driving interruptions, the optimal charging range is from 1% to 46%. This results in an effective charging speed, including time lost, of 172 kW, with each charging session taking about 18 minutes and 24 seconds.

In a theoretical 1000 km challenge, starting with a full battery and maintaining a constant speed of 120 km/h (75 mph) under ideal conditions with an assumed consumption rate of 19.5 kWh/100 km, the trip would take approximately 8 hours and 48 minutes. This journey would require two charging stops from 1% to 35%, with a total charging time of 29 minutes.

Onboard Charger

The standard onboard charger supports up to 22 kW for Level 1 and Level 2 AC charging. This allows you to fully charge the battery from 0 to 100% in approximately 5 hours and 19 minutes using a home charging setup.

Charge Port

The location of the charge port is on the left front side. This location makes it easy to charge stations where you park side into the charger. Connector types vary by market: this model uses CCS Combo 1 in North America and CCS Combo 2 in Europe. For complete specifications for all markets, refer to the full specifications.
