Lucid’s new Gravity SUV is getting ready to plug into Tesla’s charging network, with Supercharger access going live January 31.
The automaker has placed the NACS charging port in a Tesla-familiar location — the driver’s side rear quarter panel. That’s a significant shift from earlier prototypes, which had the port in the front left fender. Every 2025 Gravity built for U.S. customers will come with this native NACS port.
The Gravity’s charging capabilities are impressive. It maintains 225 kW charging speeds on V3 Superchargers, while reaching up to 400 kW when connected to Tesla’s latest V4 stations. At these speeds, drivers can add 200 miles of range in under 12 minutes — faster than Lucid’s previous estimate of 15 minutes using 350-kW chargers.
Panasonic is supplying the 123-kWh battery pack, featuring updated cell chemistry compared to what’s used in Lucid’s Air sedan. The company expects the Gravity to achieve an estimated 450 miles of range on a single charge.
The SUV hasn’t abandoned other charging standards.
Each Gravity includes a CCS1 adapter that matches the NACS port’s 400-kW peak charging capability. The vehicle also retains bidirectional charging features, allowing up to 19.2 kW of power flow — including the RangeXchange feature that lets owners charge other EVs.
Lucid announced its adoption of Tesla’s NACS standard in November 2023. The company plans to bring Supercharger compatibility to its Air sedan lineup in Q2 2024, with specific details forthcoming.
The 2025 Gravity launches with the Grand Touring trim at $94,900 (before destination charges). A more affordable Touring version, starting at $79,900, will join the lineup for the 2026 model year. Early test drives of pre-production models have shown promising results, suggesting Lucid might have a compelling entry in the premium electric SUV segment.
