In this episode, Imogen visits Lucid HQ to interview CEO & CTO Peter Rawlinson and take the Lucid Air Pure for a drive along Highway 1 in California. The Lucid Air Pure, priced at $69,000 or $549 per month, is Lucid's more affordable electric sedan and a toned down version of its ludicrous Sapphire counterpart. Despite its lower price, it boasts impressive performance, with 330KW of power, a 464-mile WLTP range, 4.75 miles per KWh and beautiful dynamics. This is a remarkable engineering feat.

This episode delves into the secrets behind the Lucid Air Pure's Tesla Model S-rivaling capabilities. We explore how Lucid achieves such impressive range and performance at this price point, its high efficiency, the benefits of vertical integration, and what sets the Lucid Air apart from other electric vehicles. Imogen also probes Peter on Lucid's hotly anticipated launch of a smaller, more affordable Lucid model. Enjoy! Full podcast with Peter Rawlinson coming soon! @fullychargedshow @EverythingElectricShow @LucidMotors
