It has a huge front trunk, with an F150 style opening. They also have pictures of it towing a large Airstream. Probably has good towing capability.

Nice features like folding trays for the second row, and a 6-seater option with captains chairs.

Well damn...That's looks much nicer than the earlier spy shots.

The Gravity is very nice, but all considered, I think I prefer my R1T.

Nice, this one or the ev9 would have been my fall back option if Rivian hadn't reverted on preorder pricing. But that greenhouse roof, ugh..

Definitely not a competitor to the R1S. That is a seven seater lifted wagon.

What's with that squashed back roof design... it's like every single new EV has to have it. Zero originality... ?

No more ev9 for me after Kia told me I had to buy through a dealer and that the MSRP was really a suggestion and the dealership was allowed, and very likely to charge above that. Something that Kia corporate didn't really want to do something about

I think it's a great looking vehicle, better than the Air (from the backend).

If they start with a model priced around $80k they might have a chance to turn it around. If it is $100k+, that's going to be trouble.

Glad to see they learned from their mistake on the vertical screen. I still don't love their solution. Looking that far down is just bad. Rivian's screen setup is much better.

This looks more like a family hauler than the R1S which is going to please a lot of people who prioritize that over off-road usage. Almost has a luxury Pacifica vibe to it.

If this comes in under $100k, it will put serious pressure on Kia EV9, Volvo EX90, Mercedes EQS SUV, BMW iX, Model X, etc.

R1S will still own the off-road capable, traditional SUV market. The Lucid could do well with the luxury sport on-road SUV market. Way more utility than the EV9, EX90, EQS, etc.

This also depends on Lucid expanding their network and overcoming the startup image.

It's the product Mercedes or BMW should have built.

EDIT: another update: https://www.lucidmotors.com/stories/introducing-lucid-gravity

"Pricing starts at under $80k"... but for what trim and when?

Obviously not for the 440 mile "Dream Edition."

Important Questions:

1) When does the $80k trim come out?
2) Can it get at least 350 miles?

If so, that's a possible strong competitor to the R1S

Based on the Air pricing I would be surprised if it comes in at or below 80k.

Curious when they might have them in thier display centers. Anyone know if they will have one at the LA auto show this month?

How are Lucid service backlogs? Are they executing service better than Rivian in general?
