In 2024, Lucid has unveiled a revamped lineup for the Lucid Air, with notable changes aimed at streamlining choices and pricing. The new lineup spans a price range from $78,900 to $250,500, signifying a $5,000 reduction in the base model’s cost. However, this cost reduction comes at the expense of all-wheel drive, which is no longer standard on the base Pure model.
Previously, the 2023 Lucid Air lineup included Pure AWD, Touring, Grand Touring, and Grand Touring Performance trims. For 2024, this has been simplified to Pure, Touring, Grand Touring, and Sapphire.
The base Pure model, priced at $78,900, no longer includes the all-wheel-drive dual-motor powertrain that was standard before. This shift makes the rear-wheel-drive Pure, introduced in October, the new base model. Despite the change, it still retains a 16-module, 88-kwh battery pack, delivering 430 hp and an EPA-rated range of 419 miles.
The Touring model has undergone significant changes, now serving as the entry-level option for those seeking all-wheel drive. It achieves this through the addition of a front motor, providing 620 hp and an estimated range of 411 miles. Lucid has reduced the Touring’s price by $9,100 and removed certain standard features such as larger 20-inch wheels, soft-close doors, and heated rear seats. To include the previously standard content, buyers can opt for a model priced at $95,150, which is $1,350 less than the 2023 version.
Details for the Grand Touring model’s specifications are currently unavailable. However, Lucid has revealed it will feature 819 hp from a dual-motor powertrain and a 22-module, 112-kwh battery pack. The significant change here is the addition of a standard aluminum roof.
Topping the lineup is the Sapphire model, introduced as a 2024 model. With a tri-motor powertrain boasting 1,234 hp, the Sapphire derives power from a 22-module, 118-kwh battery pack with a unique cell chemistry. It offers an impressive 427 miles of range.
For those interested in the glass canopy roof, it will now be available as a $4,000 option for both the Touring and Grand Touring models. Additionally, the Stealth package, featuring darkened trim, makes a return for 2024 at a cost of $1,750 for Airs with a metal roof and $3,500 for those with a glass roof.
Orders are currently open for the 2024 Lucid Air Pure, Touring, and Sapphire models, while the Grand Touring model is expected to become available in early 2024. These changes aim to provide customers with a more streamlined and cost-effective selection of Lucid Air models.

Lucid’s focusin’ on efficiency and performance. Good move on offerin’ glass roof option. Gotta check out those federal tax credits!
Wow, Lucid Air lineup gettin’ a makeover in 2024! no more AWD for base Pure, but price drop sounds awesome. Sapphire’s tri-motor sounds insane!
Can’t wait to place my order for a 2024 Lucid Air. Sapphire’s gonna be a beast on the road!
So, Touring’s now the AWD choice, but they took stuff away. Gotta pay extra for that 2023 stuff. Grand Touring’s a mystery still.
Lucid’s simplifying their cars, makin’ choices easier, and cheaper too. I’m likin’ it! Sapphire’s power’s off the charts!
