CTOnews.com July 28 news, the new American car-making force Lucid, which has long been regarded by the outside world as a "strong rival", announced yesterday night that the first production car of its pure electric new car Lucid Air Sapphire (sapphire version) was officially off the line. In this tweet, Lucid read out a rather long attributive in one breath: "the world's first luxury electric super sports car" is coming.

The car was unveiled at Monterrey Auto week in the summer of 2022 and is equipped with a three-motor powertrain, two rear motors and one front motor. it can provide maximum power of more than 1200 horsepower, with an acceleration time of 1.89 seconds at 0-60 mph and less than 2 seconds. At the same time, the car accelerated at 0 to 100mph (160.93 km / h) in less than 4 seconds, with a top speed of more than 200mph (321.87 km / h).

Lucid officials even claimed that the car's unofficial lap time on some "major tracks" was "significantly faster than many well-known supercars". At the time, Lucid said the car would be available in a limited edition, starting at $249000 in the United States (currently about 1.783 million yuan). In terms of production planning, Lucid originally planned to start production in the first half of this year, but now it seems to have been significantly delayed.

Lucid's inventory fell in the second quarter of this year as sales outstripped production. According to reports, Lucid produced 2173 vehicles in the quarter (up 204 per cent year-on-year) and delivered 1404 vehicles (up 107 per cent year-on-year), but it was slightly lower than in the first quarter.
