One of the biggest complaints I hear from EV detractors and from commenters on my YouTube videos is that electric vehicles can’t compare to gas-powered cars when it comes to long distance driving. That’s largely true, but the Lucid Air Pure is narrowing the gap because it’s the most power efficient EV on the market.
In fact, it almost matches the range I get from my aging Toyota Corolla, which somehow still manages to get a fuel economy of about 30 miles per gallon after 15 years. Its range of about 396 miles (based on its 13.2 gallon tank) is actually a smidge less than what the Lucid Air Pure gets from its 88kWh battery. That’s important because most of the other EVs I’ve tested so far tend to hover between 250 and 325 miles.
