Lucid Gravity: Can This Electric SUV Rescue a Struggling Brand?
Lucid’s latest gamble is the Gravity, a three-row electric SUV that could be a lifeline for the company. Jay Leno got behind the wheel and found something special—this isn’t just another luxury EV. It packs up to 828 horsepower, cruises on 450 miles of range, and pulls off a near-silent ride wrapped in a sleek package that looks more minivan than spaceship.

Lucid Gravity Review - Will this save Lucid?

The Gravity mixes familiar Lucid traits with new ideas. That massive clamshell front trunk swallows groceries and gear, while the interior blends comfort with tech smarts. Heated massaging seats include a rare butt massage feature. The cabin feels quiet and spacious. The LED-lit displays don’t overwhelm. Instead, they guide you through giant touchscreens that stay separate so you’re never fighting menus.

Driving the Gravity brings surprise. It sits low, giving a driver’s position closer to a sports car than an SUV that tips the scales at nearly 7,000 pounds. Cornering doesn’t punish. The suspension smooths rough roads better than expected. Zero to 60 comes in about 3.5 seconds. Not blistering, but respectable for a family hauler with such heft.

Some quirks hang around, like a steering wheel that took some getting used to and missing Apple CarPlay at launch. Big wheels and extra weight shave range, but nearly 400 miles on a real-world run still impresses. The third row isn’t trophy-winning space but is workable for kids or short hauls.

Lucid’s lurking challenge is profit. The Gravity won’t flip the company’s numbers alone. But it could become Lucid’s bestseller, especially if pricing drops slightly or trims get more affordable. In a market flooded with electric SUVs, the Gravity stands apart by blending performance and practicality rarely seen in one package.

For now, the Gravity feels like a statement: Lucid isn’t about to fade away quietly. This is a gutsy shot. If it clicks with buyers, the company might find footing—and keep pushing the electric car game forward.
