, Lucid’s new Gravity SUV helped to drive a 51 percent increase in sales in January 2025 compared to January 2024.

in January compared to the previous December, but Lucid’s year-over-year bump is cause for celebration.

Electrek also reported that Lucid’s stock price jumped 45 percent during the January surge from a low in December.

The Gravity’s appeal was a primary cause in the surge. This model uses the same charging port that Teslas do, the first non-Tesla vehicle sold with that port built-in, according to the Electrek report. So the Gravity can use the EV giant’s Tesla Superchargers that are located across the United States. Lucid predicts the Air model will also be able to use Superchargers by mid 2025, per Electrek.

Lucid said the Gravity can add up to 200 miles of distance on just 12 minutes of charge and has a maximum range of 450 miles on a single full charge.

Commenters were excited by the news.
