Lucid Air Broadcast TV Commercial

January 31, 2020, around 4:45 PM, Lucid Air did a television commercial on NBC Television. First and only I've seen.
Their hook was ' Luxury EV' ,starting at $69,900 US.

It sounds like a nice car. If I wanted a new, $70k luxury sedan, it would be hard to choose between Lucid and a Model S.

IIRC the Lucid Air's twin vortex cabin air intake was designed by an old Ecomodder member, graysgarage.

Hmmm grapevine route with two big hills to climb and enough long downhill to overcharge the pack, ditto for Cali46. Wondering if the reverse route would use more KWH/mile.

reverse route

That would be a much improved test.

How do you think they drove it? I suspect some convoy style drafting, even being #3 in the rocking chair

how they drove

The fella with Motor Trend didn't do anything special, while Lucid CEO Peter Rawlinson was said to be quite the hypermiler.
