Lucid Gravity GT-S Unveiled: 1,070 hp Electric SUV

Lucid's new powerhouse: Gravity GT-S arrives

Lucid Motors has lifted the curtain on the Gravity GT-S, a high-performance three-row electric SUV that brings supercar-level power to family haulers. With a claimed 1,070 horsepower and a 0-60 mph sprint in just 3.1 seconds, the GT-S stakes a claim as America’s most powerful three-row SUV while clearly targeting premium rivals such as the Porsche Cayenne Turbo Electric.

Performance and battery: speed vs. range

At the heart of the GT-S is Lucid’s 123-kWh battery pack, the same energy store used in its halo Air Sapphire. In GT-S tune the pack delivers up to an estimated 373 miles of range, a sacrifice compared with the longer-range Gravity Touring but a deliberate trade-off for track-capable performance.

Key specs at a glance:

• Power: 1,070 hp (1,084 metric hp)
• 0–60 mph: 3.1 seconds
• Battery: 123-kWh pack
• Estimated range: up to 373 miles

Lucid positions the GT-S between extreme performance and everyday usability. While the Porsche Cayenne Turbo Electric still edges out in peak power (around 1,140 hp), and the Tesla Model X Plaid retains the quickest 0-60 figure (2.5 seconds), the GT-S is notable for combining pace with three-row practicality.

Chassis, handling and tech

The GT-S comes standard with Lucid’s Dynamic Handling Package, designed to sharpen agility, improve stability and refine ride comfort. The package pairs independent rear-wheel steering with an adaptive three-chamber air suspension that adjusts spring volume and ride height automatically, lowering the vehicle at speed to enhance aerodynamics and stability.

These systems aim to make the GT-S feel planted on fast roads and composed in tighter sections—an important distinction for buyers who want sports-sedan dynamics in an SUV body.

Design cues and interior details

Visually the GT-S is unmistakable. Blue exterior accents and matching blue brake calipers signal its performance intentions, and the Mojave PurLuxe premium cabin follows the theme with blue stitching, blue seatbelts and a blue steering-wheel marker. Buyers can opt for five- or seven-seat layouts, and wheel choices include staggered setups (21/22 inches or 22/23 inches) to emphasize stance and grip.

Exterior color choices include Abyss Black, Stellar White Metallic, Quantum Grey Metallic and Supernova Bronze Metallic. Subtle touches, like the Lucid Bear logo on the headrests and a coordinated interior colorway, reinforce the model’s elevated positioning.

Who is this for?

The GT-S is aimed at buyers who want the drama of a performance EV without giving up the versatility of a three-row SUV. It’s a logical next step for Lucid as it leverages technology from the Air Sapphire to broaden its appeal in the booming luxury electric SUV segment.

Market positioning, price and availability

Lucid confirmed the Gravity GT-S will be a U.S.-only launch, debuting publicly at Monterey Car Week alongside the Air Sapphire. Order books opened immediately, with a starting price of $125,900. Lucid says production allocations will be delivered quickly: customers who order now can expect deliveries in roughly eight to 12 weeks.

Highlights:

• U.S.-only model
• Display at Pebble Beach (Monterey Car Week)
• Starting price: $125,900
• Delivery estimate: 8–12 weeks

Final take

The Gravity GT-S is an intriguing statement vehicle: a three-row SUV that borrows the audacity and hardware of Lucid’s performance halo to deliver a rare mix of straight-line speed, premium EV tech, and family-minded utility. For enthusiasts keeping score, it tightens Lucid’s rivalry with Porsche and Tesla while carving a unique niche—an American-built, supercar-quick SUV with room for up to seven.

Lucid’s Chief Creative Officer Derek Jenkins framed it as a 'more expressive and exhilarating interpretation of the Gravity SUV,' and for buyers who prioritize performance as much as space, the GT-S will be worth a close look.
