We’re driving Lucid’s entry-level car, the $69,900 Air Pure.
Lucid Motors landed on the map in 2021 with the Air Dream Edition, a $170,000 sedan reserved for the ultra-wealthy. In 2024, though, you can get an Air for much, much less. Which I think is a good thing, because the Air is probably the most under-appreciated electric car one can buy right now.
The most attainable model is the $69,900 Air Pure, which I’ve got in my driveway for the next week. Earlier this year, I got a bit of seat time in the 2024 Air Pure. But now I’ll get to use the new-and-improved Pure as my daily driver for several days. So what do you want to know about it?

First impressions on my part? I’ve always been a big fan of the Air’s design. It looks like a spaceship, and I can’t help but feel like Tony Stark when I’m in the driver’s seat. (Yes, he drove an Audi R8, but you get the point.) The Pure has satisfyingly heavy steering and handles well.
