This is the All Electric Record Range

According to the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Lucid Motors, a California based EV startup, has trounced the world's largest EV maker Tesla on range with a debut electric sedan at an officially rated 520 mile range.  That makes Lucid Motors the top winner on range on a single charge.  The win from the EPA for Lucid came on its battery electric Air Dream edition sedan.  The range win more than overshadows Tesla's highest range model - the S - which has an EPA estimated range of 405 miles.  Lucid plans to start building 500 Air Dream sedans with the 520 mile range.  That is a conservative start as Lucid is testing the market for the EV with the top EPA rated range of 520 miles at a price-tag of $169,000.

EV Races

The race for the longest range, most powerful, fastest, relatively inexpensive and easily rechargeable global electric vehicle is unrelenting.  Lucid Group made the history books but who knows how long this very distinctive winner's position threshold on range will hold for Lucid Air.  The race is to break the range on a charge record at greater efficiency, speeds and reduced costs to deliver affordable electric cars to consumers.  

Great Accomplishment for Lucid

This is a new threshold for the EV industry and it is a great accomplishment for the California startup.  The debut version of their sedan is the EPA's officially longest range EV ever rated.  Lucid also has a number of other notable EVs going into production.  A "Grand Touring" version of the top EPA rated sedan with a range of 516 miles goes into production in late fall 2021 and will cost $139,000. More variations of the EV sedan have ranges over 450 miles.  Lucid Group's achievements and milestones are pushing the EV market forward with great momentum.  For more information on new EVs, go to https://read.amazon.com/kp/embed?asin=B095XDNZVD&preview=newtab&linkCode=kpe&ref_=cm_sw_r_kb_dp_MQART0436NFJ6KY4VHPS
