Throughout the uphill drive, the 819-horsepower Lucid Air GT was truly pleasing to sit inside. The sedan offered a very comfortable ride, albeit being a tad on the softer side. The interior features a mix of soft-touch materials, real wood, and even denim-like fabrics which allow for a truly luxurious feel.
That being said, the interior of the car is fitted with modern-looking screens which look great, but are absolute fingerprint magnets and may require frequent cleaning. While most certainly not as dynamically tuned as performance-oriented sedans such as the Porsche Taycan , the Lucid Air GT handled the twisted mountain roads with confidence and left its reviewers with very little room for complaint - at least from a driving standpoint. By the time the Air GT reached Loveland Pass, its battery had dropped to 69% - a drop of 29% from around 75 miles of uphill driving.
Essentially, the Lucid Air GT had lost 150 miles of range while having driven only 75 miles, but that is to be expected considering the uphill drive to Loveland Pass. However, the tables would soon turn on the downhill drive back to Boulder, where the magic of regenerative braking would allow for some impressive efficiency numbers. By the time the team got back to Boulder, the Lucid Air GT lost only 3% of its charge on the downhill drive, arriving at its starting point with a battery charge level of 66%.
Ultimately, the 156-mile trip used only 32% of the battery, thanks to an impressive efficiency of 4.2 miles/.
