Lucid’s recently introduced Gravity SUV will certainly have the ability to accessibility Tesla’s Supercharger network throughout the United States and Canada beginning on January 31. And given that the electrical car features an integrated port that sustains the North American Billing Requirement (NACS), it does not require an adapter to be able to link into Tesla’s Superchargers. The car manufacturer claims Gravity came to be the very first non-Tesla design to be offered with a NACS billing port when its very first manufacturing designs were provided to a first set of consumers in December 2024. Currently, just the much more costly $94,900 Grand Touring design is offered for acquisition, however the business prepares to launch the $79,900 Exploring design at some time in late 2025.
Emad Dlala, VP of Powertrain at Lucid, claimed the car manufacturer established a “brand-new, special innovation” to guarantee the Gravity’s complete compatibility with battery chargers ranked at 500V and 1,000 V. To be specific, the Lucid Gravity has a 926V billing design, so billing times will certainly vary based upon the billing terminal it’s linked into. Dlala claimed that the innovation the business established permits the Gravity to “bill flawlessly at approximately 400 kW on 1000V billing tools and at continual rates of approximately 225 kW on 500V design quick battery chargers, consisting of Tesla V3 Superchargers.”
Lucid pledged to sustain the North American Charging Requirement back in 2023 and promised to provide its consumers accessibility to an adapter for its automobiles. The business claimed that the Lucid Air, its electrical car that does not presently included integrated NACS ports, will certainly additionally get to Tesla’s Supercharger network at some time this 2nd quarter.
