Lucid midsize SUV to cost less than ,000


Lucid just gave everyone a sneak peek at its upcoming midsize SUV.

On Tuesday at the automaker’s technology and manufacturing day, Lucid revealed on Twitter (now known as X) a teaser image of a midsize SUV. Lucid said production is set for late 2026 and the crossover will cost less than $50,000.

Lucid said the crossover SUV will feature “leading technology and efficiency.” The company said the unnamed vehicle will have the same range as competitors while using a smaller battery.

The electric midsize SUV might be named Earth. Lucid filed a trademark for the Earth name with the United States Patent and Trademark Office in January.

Lucid’s CEO Peter Rawlinson said in August it will take the competition years to catch up to the automaker in terms of efficiency.

The teaser image shows a crossover SUV that has a curved roofline akin to the larger Gravity SUV, but in a package sized similar to the Tesla Model Y. The front end shares its core design traits with the Air and Gravity, such as the horizontal headlights and full-width chrome trim with “LUCID” lettering. Unlike the Gravity, the midsize SUV’s hood appears to have scallops on both sides similar to the Air sedan. The fenders are curved, the side mirrors are fender-mounted, and no door handles are visible.

The midsize crossover is reportedly one of three affordable EVs Lucid is developing.

Lucid design boss Derek Jenkins has said the midsize vehicles will focus on efficiency and aerodynamics. The vehicles will be compact and lighter than the Air. A crossover SUV, a sedan, and possibly an affordable sporty hatchback are all possible.

Pre-production units of the Gravity SUV are now rolling off the assembly line with deliveries set to begin later in the year.

Lucid hasn’t said when the formal unveil of the midsize vehicles will take place.
