What reviewers say

Sourced tester consensus for each — the "what people who used it think" layer, not just specs.

Lucid Air Grand Touring (2025)

Only one whitelisted outlet, InsideEVs, published prose on the exact 2025 Air Grand Touring, and it relays an Out of Spec Reviews 70-mph range test rather than its own instrumented run. It reports the 512-mile-rated sedan covering 510.4 miles at 70 mph before power cut. Whitelisted hands-on reviews covered the 2024 car, a different model year, and were excluded. (1 sourced review.)

Praised: Longest-range EV on sale; the 512-mile-rated GT covered ~510 miles at a steady 70 mph in the reported highway test; Real-world highway efficiency (4.4 mi/kWh) beat the EPA-derived 3.8 mi/kWh figure.
