Though I did no measured testing, I\u2019d peg the Gravity Touring as extremely fast, with gobs of power on demand at any time, compared to the absurdly fast Grand Touring or any of those 1,000+ hp Airs. Lucid claims a 0\u201360 time of 4.0 seconds for the Touring. Soberly, though, I\u2019d suggest the real-world performance difference between the top-power Grand Touring and the Touring is less significant than the difference in stats columns.<\/p>\n

Despite the acceleration, it\u2019s the polish that impressed me the most. Steering is precise and feels naturally weighted from parking lot speeds to cruising on the interstate. The optional three-chamber air suspension strikes a pleasing balance between ride comfort and body roll control, isolating occupants from rough pavement without allowing the vehicle\u2019s considerable mass (at about 5,200 pounds\/2,360 kg) to feel unwieldy.<\/p>\n

Lucid also fits serious braking hardware, with six-piston Brembo-built front calipers clamping giant 15-inch rotors. Over twisty sporty-car roads, the Gravity didn\u2019t exactly become a Ferrari, but it negotiated tight corners, hills, heavy braking, and gravel-covered patches with way more talent than I anticipated. Interestingly, in everyday driving, even when throttle-closed regenerative braking is switched off, the Gravity still slows markedly, as if regen is engaged.<\/p>\n

Visually, the Touring is mostly indistinguishable from the more expensive Grand Touring, which is fortunate because its design is one of the vehicle\u2019s strongest assets. The proportions look coherent, and the surfaces are aerodynamic without looking experimental. The illuminated front fascia, full-width lighting elements, and expansive glass roof create a modern aesthetic that feels premium rather than performative.<\/p>\n

The test vehicle wore optional Supernova Bronze metallic paint. Coupled with the standard Stealth Appearance package, the flat-sided wheels, and the broad-shouldered look of the front-end graphic and front lights, the Gravity Touring is handsome, but it doesn\u2019t really shave much visual weight. It certainly looks like it weighs 5,200 lbs, even though it wears it well.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Though I did no measured testing, I\u2019d peg the Gravity Touring as extremely fast, with gobs of power…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":768344,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[31],"tags":[74],"class_list":["post-768343","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-technology","tag-technology"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/768343","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=768343"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/768343\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/768344"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=768343"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=768343"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=768343"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
