Lucid has announced that it will begin accepting orders for the Gravity SUV on November 7
Lucid has been teasing the Gravity SUV for several months, aiming to bring its own offering to the highly competitive segment. The company says it is designed to be “the best SUV ever,” aiming to bring all of the wants and needs of consumers into a single-vehicle design.
Peter Rawlinson, Lucid’s CEO, said:
“There is a growing anticipation for Lucid Gravity’s unprecedented combination of versatility, performance, design, and all-around capability. “This is uniquely enabled through our revolutionary technology. We look forward to bringing the world’s most advanced SUV to the world soon.”
Now that the vehicle is headed toward a scheduled production date of late 2024, Lucid is dropping some of the vehicle’s specs, along with new, never-before-seen images of the vehicle’s exterior, interior, and features.
Lucid Gravity Price
The Lucid Gravity SUV will start at $79,990, but this is for the Touring trim that will not enter production until late 2025. The initial vehicle trim, the Grand Touring, will be priced at $94,900 and will be available as production is planned to begin in late 2024.
Lucid Gravity Range
Lucid has long flexed its vehicles and their ability to hold high levels of efficiency and industry-leading range ratings.
The Gravity will be no different. While we do not have any details on efficiency due to no information on the vehicle’s battery pack capacity, Lucid does say that the vehicle will have a projected range surpassing 440 miles.
Lucid Gravity Horsepower
Just like the Air sedan, Lucid will offer a vehicle that has incredible power, acceleration, and performance metrics, with the first detail released being the horsepower. Lucid does note that the pack capacity will be “similar to that of the 2025 Lucid Air Grand Touring,” which is 117 kWh.
Lucid says the Gravity SUV will pack 800 horsepower in its Touring trim, bringing it into elite company as vehicles like the Nissan GT-R, Audi RS6, Lamborghini Sián FKP 37, and Koenigsegg CCR all also pack this much power.
Although it is not geared toward being a performance car specifically, the vehicle will have the capabilities, making it fully versed and well-rounded for customers.
Lucid Gravity Features
Not only will the Gravity have exceptional range and performance metrics, but it will also have the North American Charging Standard (NACS) from Tesla integrated directly into the vehicle.
It will also have up to 120 cubic feet of usable cargo space when the frunk is included. It will also pack an optional frunk seat that can accommodate two adults, but only when the vehicle is parked.
Lucid Gravity Production Date
Lucid is aiming for the production of the Gravity SUV to launch late this year, likely bringing first deliveries by January or February if all goes well.
Orders will open for the vehicle on November 7 for customers in the U.S. Current Lucid owners will have priority for taking delivery.

Tesla is building a new UFO-inspired Supercharger in the heart of Alien country

Tesla is planning to build a new UFO-inspired Supercharger in the heart of Alien country — Roswell, New Mexico.
Back in 1947, a crash of debris led to rumors of an alleged crash of a UFO just 75 miles north of Roswell near Corona, New Mexico. The crash was officially noted as the recovery of a military balloon, but over the years, speculation persists that the “flying disc” many saw might have been extraterrestrials trying to make contact with Earth.
As a result of the 1947 crash, Roswell has adopted it and used it as the inspiration for much of its tourism. As Tesla is planning to build a Supercharger in the area, it is using the same sort of inspiration for the location, which will feature just eight charging stalls located under a CyberCanopy.
It was first spotted by MarcoRP, a noted Supercharger permit insider:
A new Supercharger is coming soon to Roswell, New Mexico!!

Tesla’s Head of Charging for North America, Max de Zegher, confirmed that the site will be inspired by the events near Roswell in 1947. He noted that Tesla “wants to build a few Superchargers cool enough to be worth of the trip itself.”
This will undoubtedly be one of those locations, and along with the Tesla Drive-in Diner Supercharger in Santa Monica, it seems the company could be moving toward some more unique designs for the future, making the charging experience more fun and interesting for owners:
We want to build a few Superchargers cool enough to be worthy of the trip itself. Wish we could have kept it under wraps for longer, but submittal was needed for Planning Approval. We can’t hide anything from @MarcoRPi1! 🙂 pic.twitter.com/X2WaKDd408

This Tesla vandal caused thousands in damage, but she was let off the hook: Here’s why

A Tesla vandal in Bloomington, Minnesota, caused $3,200 in damages to a car after keying it. However, the local police department, as well as the owner of the Tesla, let her off the hook.
As a Tesla sat in the parking lot of a Cub Foods grocery store, it was damaged in an act of vandalism that we are unfortunately seeing all too frequently. Police managed to locate the woman responsible for the damage, aiming to hold her responsible for the scrapes she applied to the vehicle.
However, in an act that many might not be able to perform, the owner of the Tesla did not want to pursue any criminal charges. Instead, they just wanted their car fixed.
Police Chief Booker Hodges said (via Minnesota Star Tribune):
“The victim in this case just wanted their car fixed, and they just wanted the suspect to pay for that. Based on the totality of the circumstances here, and along with our core value of being compassionate, this is the best outcome for everybody involved in this case.”
It was an incredible act of forgiveness, as many of those who have had their Teslas damaged in response to CEO Elon Musk likely would not have been able to do the same thing. One person who had their vehicle keyed filed a civil lawsuit against the vandal, who damaged their car while it was parked at Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport, seeking $1 million in damages.
Chief Hodges finished his remarks about this specific situation by calling out the leaders who have spread a hateful narrative about Musk and Tesla, and the company’s vehicle owners as well:
“We need our leaders to start leading and stop feeding this rhetoric. People should be able to drive whatever car they want without fear of going into a store and someone scratching their car or people yelling at them because of the car that … they choose to drive. It’s time for all of us, you know, just to start getting along and knock this stuff off, man. People should be able to be left alone.”
While Chief Hodges did not mention anyone specifically, Minnesota politician and former VP candidate Tim Walz said earlier this month that he “gets a boost” when Tesla stock falls. He later retracted his statement by stating it was just a joke.

Tesla Model Y tops Norway sales despite low Q1 delivery results
The new Model Y ended March as Norway’s top-selling vehicle for the month, with 1,819 units sold.

Tesla did not meet delivery expectations in the first quarter of 2025, and a huge reason behind this was the changeover to the new Model Y in Giga Texas, the Fremont Factory, Giga Shanghai, and Giga Berlin.
Despite Tesla’s disappointing Q1 vehicle delivery results, the new Model Y still made a significant impact in key markets such as Norway.
The new Model Y’s Norway Comeback
While sales of the new Model Y in January and February were low in Norway, the vehicle saw a lot of momentum as soon as deliveries of the updated all-electric crossover started. This resulted in the new Model Y ending March 2025 as Norway’s top-selling vehicle for the month, with 1,819 units sold.
Over the course of Q1 2025, Tesla was able to sell a total of 2,792 Model Y units. That was enough to also make the all-electric crossover Norway’s best-selling vehicle in the first quarter. This is quite an impressive feat for Tesla, especially since sales were throttled during the quarter due to the company’s changeover to the new Model Y.
Tesla in Other European Markets
Tesla’s results in Europe during the first quarter were a mixed bag. In Germany alone, Tesla saw 4,935 vehicles sold in Q1 2025. As per the German road traffic agency KBA, Tesla’s sales in March dropped 42.5% to 2,229 units year-over-year. This was despite overall EV registrations rising 35.3% during the month.
In Italy, new vehicle registrations rebounded 51% in March from the previous year to 2,217 units, as per data from the Transport Ministry. This is still quite impressive considering that Tesla has become a very polarizing carmaker in Europe, thanks in no small part to CEO Elon Musk’s politics and close relation to U.S. President Donald Trump.
