Saw this across from our layover hotel in West Palm. The Lucid Air has a better than Bently gorgeous interior and a lot of space. The 900v system makes for very compact drive motors.

They will have to just nail their build tolerances for the rear hatch to fit correctly. The design is very unforgiving of anything. Even a 1mm sized error would be really noticeable. I used to do collision repair and pant work. ... Mercedes currently could not build that design. We will have to see if Lucid can.
