EV Spotlight | Wow! An EV that actually goes farther than most gasoline cars - introducing the Lucid Air Dream Edition
The Lucid Air Dream Edition was recently rated by the Environmental Protection Agency with an estimated driving range of 520 miles on a full charge. That's the longest range of any purely battery-powered car yet rated by the EPA, including Tesla's Model S Long Range. It's not just a little longer, either.
