“We are considerably ahead of where Tesla is. We've taken that mantle. When I was at Tesla, Tesla was the tech leader. They've become distracted, and we have taken that place.'
PEBBLE BEACH, Calif. ? Lucid Motors has a lot riding on its next EV, the Gravity SUV, when it comes out later this year. Lucid CEO Peter Rawlinson spoke to Yahoo Finance from the Pebble Beach Concept lawn, where select automakers show off new vehicles of note during Monterey Auto Week. Rawlinson is bullish on the Gravity and believes it can more than double the company?s sales, which hit 2,394 deliveries of its pricey Air sedan in the second quarter.
They've become distracted, and we have taken that place,? he said, referring to what he believes is Lucid's tech advantage in batteries, software, and powertrain. Rawlinson posted data on LinkedIn showing how far ahead of Tesla Lucid's tech is, in terms of efficiency. Rawlinson mentioned Lucid vehicles have the capability to eke out 5 miles of distance in one kWh, which is remarkable when the industry average is around 3 to 4 miles, which is where Tesla stands.
