The Lucid Air Sapphire pairs a 330 km/h (205 mph) top speed with long-distance touring efficiency, rated at 427 miles (687 km) on the EPA cycle. Built in Casa Grande, Arizona, its tri-motor all-wheel-drive system produces 920 kW (1,234 hp / 1,251 PS) and 1,939 N·m (1,430 lb·ft) of torque from a 118 kWh battery pack. Independent testing recorded 0-60 mph in 1.89 seconds and a quarter-mile pass in 9.21 seconds at 157.1 mph. Priced near $250,000, the Sapphire adds carbon-ceramic brakes, stiffer track suspension, aerodynamic wheel covers, and torque-vectoring dual rear motors without sacrificing 5-seat cabin space or trunk utility, making it the quickest-accelerating American luxury electric sedan in regular series production and a standout long-range electric highway performer.
