Lucid has reached a new milestone in expanding its electric vehicle (EV) lineup. CEO and CTO Peter Rawlinson announced that the company started pre-production of its Gravity SUV at its Casa Grande, Arizona plant.

In detail, Lucid’s first Gravity SUV pre-production bodyshell, finished in Infinite Black paint, has been transferred from the paint shop to the main production line. As a result, this marks the beginning of Lucid’s pre-production run for the Gravity model, a process that will help the company refine its manufacturing techniques and conduct final validation testing.

“Each unit will help us perfect the process and will be used for final validation testing to ensure top-tier build quality in full-scale production,” Rawlinson stated in a LinkedIn post. He emphasized the significance of this step, describing it as “reaching a significant milestone on our path to full production.”

The Gravity SUV, unveiled in November 2023, includes a targeted range of 440 miles and a starting price under $80,000. The model will feature seven seats across three rows, catering to the growing demand for spacious family EVs.

Lucid’s Q2 2024 Performance

Recently, Lucid reported delivering 2,394 units for Q2 2024, conveying a 22% increase from Q1 and surpassing projections of 1,940 units. With the Gravity model starting the pre-production stage, the record-breaking delivery for Lucid in Q2 2024 certainly makes the company’s confidence in its upcoming SUV in higher standards.

As the company moves closer to full production of the Gravity SUV, potential buyers will be watching closely to see if Lucid can deliver on its promises. The full production of the Gravity is scheduled to start by the end of 2024. Lucid will also release its Q2 2024 financial results on August 5.
