The Lucid Air Sapphire — 1st Ride
CleanTechnica
Lucid’s Senior Vice President of Design and Brand Derek Jenkins took us around the vehicle, highlighting the exterior improvements made to optimize the Sapphire. The overall exterior package of the Air Sapphire is the same as the other flavors of the Air, with subtle refinements that deliver increased aerodynamic performance. It boasts an exclusive ultra-dark Sapphire blue paint that pops wildly in the sunlight.
In addition to the standard driving modes, the Lucid Air Sapphire also boasts a track mode. Inside track mode, three customizable modes allow you to maximize performance depending on what you’re doing for the day. This includes optimizing performance for a single hot lap, for a quick hit of the Air Sapphire’s 1.89 second 0-60 mph capability on a drag strip, or for a full day at the track in Endurance mode.
Under his expert control, the full might of the Lucid’s power in Sapphire mode was summoned at what seemed like the most awkward of times. Hitting the apex of a turn, he slammed the pedal to the floor pulling so much g-force that consciousness was at risk. The Lucid Air Sapphire’s rapid cycle programming ensured all four tires maintained traction with the ground and all of that power was applied, even through tight corners.
The Lucid team rolled out the power of the Air Sapphire in a way that’s subtle and yet it tells a story. It is refined and polished, but it will still make you squeal if you know where to look and what buttons to poke.
