Lucid Motors has stolen the crown from Tesla for longest mile range on a single charge.
The startup automaker’s Air Dream Edition Range can drive 520 miles on a full battery, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) said Thursday, beating the Tesla Model S Long Range, previously the car that could go the farthest on a charge, by more than 100 miles.
The announcement suggests that owners of the Lucid vehicle could travel from Los Angeles to San Francisco without stopping to charge the battery.
Peter Rawlinson, CEO and CTO, Lucid Group, shared in a statement: ‘I’m delighted that our Lucid Air Dream Edition Range has been officially accredited with a range of 520 miles by the EPA, a number I believe to be a new record for any EV.
‘Crucially, this landmark has been achieved by Lucid’s world-leading, in-house EV technology, not by simply installing an oversize battery pack.’
‘The next generation EV has truly arrived!’
