The officials claim the car to have a driving range of 400 plus miles with a whopping speed of more than 200 mph. The company has been working on the car for several years, with production delayed from 2018 to late 2020. Now finally, the car is confirmed to be launched in late 2020 by the company. Charging of the car can be made by using a normal wall plug or at the charging station for the vehicle. Charging time depends upon the individual charging station (EVSE) used and the refueling capacity of the EV. An estimated charging time by wall plug (2.3 kW) is approximately 38h 30m while, on the other hand, 3-phase 16A or 32A is 8h 15m. Lucid has not released any information regarding rapid charging system for its car, but we can expect a charge from 10% to 80% to be 66 minutes on a charging point: CCS (50kW DC), CCS (100kW DC): 37 minutes, and CCS (150kW DC): 28 minutes.
