The Lucid Air Grand Touring and Chevrolet Corvette Z06 have one thing in common. Okay, they have lots in common, in the sense that both have seats, four wheels, and carry people. But in the world of Motor1.com, the only notable common ground here is both being very fast in a straight line.
That's a good metric to share for a simple drag race, but this new showdown from Edmunds is one of their U-drag competitions. That means a drag race combined with braking, a 180-degree turn, and another sprint back to the finish line. That also means the Lucid Air Grand Touring – the undisputed horsepower champion in this group with dual motors and 819 electric ponies going to all four wheels – will have to do more than just go fast in a straight line.
