- Lucid Motors is the latest EV startup to enter the market. In September, it unveiled its Air luxury sedan to the world, and teased its SUV concept. But the company has challenges ahead before it can become the next Tesla. CNBC spoke to Lucid CEO Peter Rawlinson, a former Tesla chief engineer, to learn about the company’s plan to take on the electric-car pioneer.

Inside Lucid Motors Plan To Take On Tesla
All the best to Lucid. I actually appreciate how open they are in interviews and how aspirational they've positioned themselves to be. They're also one of the few EV makers who actually have compelling and attractive vehicles.
what technical fact did they acutely quot about there products that make you believe there better.remember there selling something
This isn’t a war between individual EV companies against Tesla, but rather EV vs gasoline cars
Dude, whoever is going to be looking at buying an EV will compare Tesla to competitors. So yes competition is against Tesla.
@Ziggi Mon Scared because they're up against ICE cars? That's like saying Ford was scared of competing horses back in 1903. Horses lost, ICE will too.
Ziggi Mon there’s nothing for him to be scared of. All American gas car makers are non profitable and near bankrupt yet Tesla is only US “car company” with a profit for 5 quarters Lol
Ziggi Mon I doubt anyone can compete with Teslas battery technology. Anyone who tries will end up selling 100k up cars or if they try to compete with price it’ll be for sure inferior in quality(software or hardware) and range.
Ziggi Mon the cars make a profit, the company keeps reinvesting in growth. That’s why Elon’s net worth keeps going up, and....well, yours isn’t.
the interior of this car is absolutely amazing
One advantage Lucid motors has over Tesla is the interior, unfortunately Tesla needs to improve its interior designs and quality to continue to be sweetheart of the industry and compete with high end segment and price range.
the exterior looks a lot better imp
Good point, however it's a lot easier to improve quality than mass production. So let's see, we would love some competition, it's beneficial for the end users
If it really matters you can just get it reupholstered people buying fully loaded model s and x should be able to afford it.
Lucid CEO literally said that their plan is NOT to "take on Tesla", what is up with this clickbait title.
How can you not compare then tesla makes electric cars and this is an electric car. Obviously they aren't competing in the same segment.. For now
Doesn’t matter what the CEO says. Tesla is the benchmark to which all EV’s will be compared.
@Josh , but it worked, innit?
It’s CNBC what’d u expect
Of course Lucid is squarly targeting Tesla and Tesla market share. But with a better product.
1:56 did she just say JagWIRE ?
Yeah and it was brutal 🥺...
Murica
ROFL
I paused the video and came to the comments section immediately after she said that. 🤦♂️
@Jack Redford Yep that’s the correct way
Im I the only one thrown off by the way she pronounced Jaguar
What, have you never heard of the famous brand called Jagwire?
Count me in😁
IA Aljabary
The particular reporter is walking along the JagWIRE tightrope.
I ca be almost certain sHE had a few glasses of wine too many, hic!
She's an Australian,mate🤗
They’re not trying to compete with Tesla as of right now. They’re focused on the ICE luxury market ie. Mercedes S Class, Audi A8 and BMW 7 Series.
Dude, whoever is going to be looking at buying an EV will compare Tesla to competitors. So yes competition is against Tesla.
@@OnlineSupportTeam slightly yes but this is much more laser focused. While tesla is more focused on the broader market ie the model 3 and model Y, a better business model. But this is almost solely going after the S-class
@@OnlineSupportTeam Whoever is going to buy a TRUE Luxury vehicle won't look at Tesla. Tesla has the best EV's and that's what EV buyers will get, but the Model S doesn't have the traditional luxury that luxury buyers are looking for such as the the best metals, woods, materials, etc. for the interior of the vehicle.
Yeah this car is far too ugly to compete with those cars.
@@evilbred974 That's subjective. Once the Lucid is out, we'll see what the sales numbers say after about a year or 2.
Tesla is trying to reduce their price while Lucid is targeting the luxury car market. Both these companies can coexist imo
Where is the $35k tesla that was promised 5 years ago?
@@chiquita683 Tesla has been selling the 35k model 3 for over a year
@@chiquita683 It's available just hidden as Tesla will basically give you a standard range plus model with software nerf www.greencarreports.com/news/1127490_the-35k-tesla-model-3-still-exists-off-menu
Lucid will need to produce cheaper vehicles in the future to stay relevant
@@chiquita683 you can buy it. My friend has is it
They should also in coming years develop boats , buses and other automobiles.
There’s already another company developing Battery powered boats.
@@nunezificationr8304 I know. It's always better to have more players.
Hydrogen should also be taken seriously to fuel cargo ships and aeroplanes.
@@fobudomh Like Nikola ? :D
@@markythesharky8308 like Toyota.
@@fobudomh about cargo planes and planes, they're actually much more better well off with biofuels. Methane or cyanobacteria lipids are my top pick. Let's be real, there's a reason why Elon called FCEVs "fool cells". That's because making hydrogen and then converting it to electricity is much less efficient than, using the electricity. While it's true batteries will hinder truck's cargo and biofuels are barely mass produceable which makes hydrogen the best choice, however with planes and cargo ships, the demand is much lower so biofuels are better than hydrogen
When I invested in Tesla I was investing in the man. Elon. I believe in Peter. That's why I'm betting on Lucid. They won't ever be as big as Tesla but there is room for this company. They make a compelling product. I like the styling. The like that they are focusing on range. I would like to see them talk about safety and their plans for self driving. They have a lot of work to do to be mentioned in the same breath as a Tesla.
It a long path though. And they don't have first mover advantage afforded Tesla. It's a totally different game.
The proper title for this would be:
19 minute Lucid commercial brought to you by CNBC.
You guys still dont get it. Lucid isn't isn't coming for Tesla. They are coming for Mercedes! All Lucid is going to do is increase the % of EV's sold compared to total vehicles. Not take car sales away from other EV makers.
Reacher nailed it
So true, I think this is an inherent bias in big media, regarding the tech industry
Honestly this car isn't going to do that. It looks like a mid 90s Oldsmobile. It's so ugly. The interior isn't anything to write home about either. It looks basically the same as a Model S.
The range claims are just claims at this point. And if you listen to the executives in this video, it's all smarmy business jargon that really makes you think this car is 95% marketing and 5% engineering..
Factz!!!
Dude, whoever is going to be looking at buying an EV will compare Tesla to competitors. So yes competition is against Tesla.
“Our competition isn’t the trickle of EVs entering the market- it’s the massive overwhelming flood of gas engines being spewed out across the world.” -Elon
Sounds like something a competitor to gas vehicles would say lol. He’s not an environmentalist, he’s a capitalist trying to compete.
@@b4u334 a gas competitor might be what we need to save the environment even if his intentions are just capitalist.
Abdirazak Ali True. I say it because I don’t want people committing post hoc fallacy. It’s because he’s a capitalist that he will be incidentally saving the environment. It’s not because he ends up saving the environment that it was his intention all along. That is, government regulation should not be used to push the market to act.
@@abibnoor he wouldn't have started a space company or a car company if that was the case. He would have started a new software project. Car companies car more known to fail then succeed. Just look how many car companies that existed 20 years ago compared to today
Dude, whoever is going to be looking at buying an EV will compare Tesla to competitors. So yes competition is against Tesla.
Here in Casa Grande all the locals are super excited about Lucid coming in. Property values are up, housing starts that were abandoned in ‘08 are showing signs of life again, and the town is projecting huge growth over the next ten years.

To the moon brother! I'm not going to let this to slip out of my hands!!
The more the merrier . I love the shift towards EVs away from fuel cars. Best of luck to all!
LUCID is Vapoware, it will go BANKRUPT before it Produces ANY cars.

LUCID motors is a MASSIVE Fraud.
Do your own Research.
@@markplott4820 Dear Tesla stan, all of the stuff you mentioned were allegations and none are confirmed. Elon was also hit with allegations of poorly running factories, but they weren't exactly true. Just because that dude left Tesla to start his ow company, doesn't make him an enemy. Elon welcomes competition, unlike you stans.
I will believe in them when I actually see their cars on the road !
Their factory in Casa Grande, AZ is complete for stage 1. They are now testing the robots to make sure the quality meets spec. So, get ready to believe.
I invested in CCIV I believe in them, my gut feeling tells me so
oh boy, its your lucky day
Almost any small group of brilliant engineers can make a perfect car it takes so much more than that to make 100,000 good cars
This is what Elon Musk said he wanted, totally revolutionise the motor industry and destroy petrol powered vehicles. Some might think he's worried about the competition but I think he probably couldn't be happier!!! 😂😂
Exactly. He's been throwing out price drops and better range and performance as competitors unveil their offerings. I'm sure he's happy to see the EV market heat up
He's definitely been outspoken about his desire to get the industry moving that direction. They've even held open patents to promote the progress. That just shows how much the oil industry owns these ICE car manufacturers. Nobody has taken advantage and truly stepped up.
Musk has sucked a lot of people in .... Tesla shares are drastically over priced ... Musk even told shareholders it was over valued ... even if Tesla increases their production of cars by 1000% ... the company would still be over valued .... and Tesla actually do very little to improve cars footprint on the environment
@@pablorages1241 lmao, please learn how to use ellipses properly and stop trolling.
@@pablorages1241 Overpriced says who? Tesla stock prices have never played by the rules just like the company. That's why people like me make a lot of money owning their stock. Why do you think they're so successful? Cuz Elon makes outstanding decisions for their product lines that, so far, have revolutionized their respective industries, and will continue to do so. It's bigger than the cars. They're a tech company. When he's gone, then we can talk traditionally about their stock prices
Nikola was worth billions and their model truck only ran on gravity. These guys should be swimming in investor cash.
Xddddd
😄😄😄
EV companies are like weed stocks. There literally popping up every where. Let me remind you that Tesla is the 1st new car startup company in the LAST 100 years to actually be profitable. Most of these new EV companies will go out of business, not saying to Lucid but in general
@@alexng4 That's because they've got boatloads of government subsidies
@@f2detaboada So did GM, Ford with those bailout money they haven't paid off. Tesla paid off their loan. 2nd, Ford and GM also have those boatload of government EV subsidies credits they can use also. Its not only unique to Tesla.
That is what Elon Wants Every Company to turn to EV.
In 10 years, Tesla will make most of their money by their charges Station.
@@NYC55B maybe in 5yrs, it's just like printer model, buy printer for cheap and pay premium for cartridges.
@@NYC55B I think tesla will be making their money from selling their batteries and self driving technology
First they said you couldn't do it... Then they said you could do it but it wasn't affordable... Then they said they're small or go like golf carts... Then they said the range was bad.... Then they said they were inconvenient... Like... at what point do all of these arguments just boil down to.... "I just don't want to change!" If EV's are faster, just as affordable, have just as much range, lower maintenance cost, lower fuel cost... at what point does it just become kind of silly to be relying so heavily on the internal combustion engine for vehicles? 7000 charging stations in the states now. That's 140 per state. That's 2 per county and growing fast. The fear is just that. Fear. It has very little to do with the practicality of operating.
Model S was once considered a premium brand. Lucid Air I think based on initial review, could be categorized as not only providing luxury but also very capable EV to be stacked against some of the best EV currently including Tesla. Now that it is well funded and does not have to go through some of the challenges that Tesla has gone through, it only needs to execute/deliver what they said.
Model S was launched in 2014!! . Enough said really!! Many journeys ahead for Lucid many cliff edges. In 3 years we might know if they will survive. In 5 years they might maybe have volume production. Where do you think Tesla will be in 2028??? Seriously!!! To be mentioned in the same breathe as Tesla is nonsense. Maybe they develop somewhat quicker than Tesla, but maybe not. Or maybe they go bust. But From Model S to now was 9 years for Tesla. And they had a clear runway with no real competition to mention. I think to concertina 9 years into 5 is extremely unlikely. No Tesla have escaped the coup!! That's why the system is trying to hold them back!! It's their only option. Horses and stable doors come to mind.
The roofing top of the Ev`s should be equipped with solar panels to enable the vehicle charge with the sun as well
Lol. Solar tech is nowhere close to being able to do that
I wish but there are too many reasons why it wouldn't work with current technology. Too little surface area and current solar panels are too inefficient to produce a noticeable charge. There was a company that had the same idea and tried it but in their tests showed that they got only 1 mile or so of charge PER day. You're better off using Tesla's wall plug from your home.
Seriously getting GOOSEBUMPS after watching the future forecasting plan of #Lucid.🔥🔥🔥
CCIV is the spac to merge with Lucid, this is going to be HUGE.
whered u find the information so quicky?

For a brief while, i questioned if I was pronouncing it wrong for all my life hahah.
Sleek looks and beautifully make . Impressive!
10:29
That's some pretty solid growth
the design of this Lucid vehicle in my opinion is nicer than Tesla's
Best of luck to Lucid. And Rivian. But seriously... GM and Nikola are screwed.
GM went bankrupt and got bailed by USA government... for GM to go bankrupt again...
GM can still back out ink has not dried yet.
@@user-jt3dm4mo7i GM is in good hands, the government will keep backing them like old grandparents. Its sad, they should just back the future, and Im glad the SPAC finally went through for Lucid. Looking forward to Lucids future.
Would love to have an EV that can make me miss being in a Mercedes S Class. I applaud Tesla for its achievements to-date, but its quality, fit and finish, materials and workmanship hasn't compelled me to give up my German luxury sedan. Lucid may just be the answer.
The fact I seen a welsh badge on his race suit makes me wish this company because the biggest and best selling ev company in the world 👌👌
Specs are only of secondary importance. What mostly counts is how much any model appeals to the public.
It is funny how everything is compared to Tesla. That means that Tesla is the man to beat. To be honest Rivion is the only company that I think might compete with Tesla.
Looks like a great car, I’d love to see more cars like this on the streets
I hope Lucid thrives, we need more EV companies to take market shares from ICE vehicles
1:56 Jagwire 😂
Nothing close? Didn't the Model S plaid just beat it in both range and 0--60 speed?
Yeah it annihilates it but news articles are just fool of tards
When this presentation that Lucid put out specs on the plaid model S weren't available. Plaid beat the 0-60 by a good margin but the ranges were basically identical and the Air is a more luxuries vehicle. As a Tesla investor I'd like to see more good EV's to drive the overall market in that direction and Lucid might be a good EV maker (have to sell them before we can judge that).
@brent I totally agree. The more EV auto makers out there the better. I'm no Tesla fanboy, even though I do appreciate that they make great cars. I'm a Chevy Bolt owner myself.
And Plaid is HERE while Lucid is still years in the making. All of these Tesla killers are a joke.
@@matains88 Plaid isn't here, it will be available when the 4680 cells hit full production, likely in about a years time. Lucid has never been talked about as a Tesla kilker and that term is dead. It's playing to a different audience than Tesla and is more likely a Rolls Royce killer.

buy an electric porsche then lmao
Keep dreaming.

Sounds promising. I hope it lives up to the hype.
Lucid should definitely speak to Microsoft to see about allowing "Forza" to license their cars in the Forza video game. As many car enthusiasts play it, and it can be good for marketing.

CNBC has a talent of stretching one main point to 20 minute videos
“People aren’t buying EVs, they are buying Tesla”
@Muha C that's about to change.. Its like Apple vs samsung.. Samsung eventually came up..
They didn't talk about any kind of self driving capabilities. They'll need to master that too if they are to compete with Tesla
Not everyone is found with self driving cars. I am not. If i buy a car i want to drive it,feel it and connect to my machine. There is no gained advantage with self driving cars other than being a useless commodity for lazy people.
Gustavo Aragon True, but it's not only good for the lazy people but it could gain you money when you go to a mall by acting as a taxi. There is a large amount of people who are interested in it
I don’t trust self driving tech and I don’t think it’ll be allowed on the streets by law in the next 50 years.
@Kenan Gedik Elon Musk believes he can do it within 10-15 yrs. Even if it is 50 it is important to start now so that you can have the data by the time
To be fair, Tesla will have to master it, too
What's the music in the first few seconds of the clip?

The Lucid Air looks stunning inside & out!! I can’t wait till they can make a more attainable vehicle to slot below this in price because this starts at $70k

I am a big fan of Tesla Mobile Service. The way you setup Service, how it provides an estimate ahead of tech arriving letting you know what is under warranty vs not (so far all my needs have been under warranty), and how they come to your location rather than you having to go to theirs.
Lucid should start out with something like that.
I kinda want a lucid now. Really which luxury car to choose is the hardest decision to make right now.
How profitable is that Bitcoin market over the stock market,speaking on Tesla Stocks
Bitcoin has a better short term investment gain..
I still see Cryptocurrency as one of the best digital investment and I totally love the technology when it comes to the largest Crypto asset Bitcoin.
As a trader I have been able to understand that there are two sides when it comes to crypto and everyone has there opinions when it comes to choosing sides,though I am not kicking against hodl , but I see it as an odd and old strategy to make profit of the market
when the market goes bearish investors/traders looses there investment which is very painful
you can take advantage of the market involving yourself in day trading or copying trade alert from a professional trader that understand the market and use strategy to generate signals daily to make profit to grow your portfolio as I have been doing with Mr Marcos Romero

as of now lucid doesnt have a chance against tesla in terms of sales due to lucid's heavy focus on the luxury ev market. they're not capitalizing on the mid to low ev market share, which tesla is. lucid will need years to build up their brand name to compete with tesla.
LUCID will only be KILLING the High End Mercedes and BMW.
I agree. If they working trying to make a $25,000 and under-car before tesla then they would be really doing something
Agree dude. And the working class keeps being demonized as climate change deniers when these dorks wont even walk down the hill they live on.
@Jack Redford they started out with the roadster but did move on to the s. however tesla was the only ev manufacturer that had a decent name to themselves at the time (2010ish), and they realized they needed to tackle the lower end market in order to survive. it's a different time now with so many other ev startups angling at every price in order to compete with tesla's model 3 and now their $25,000 car. lucid seems to be trying to go the same route tesla did but it may not work to the same extent it did with tesla.
Thanks
Lucid is a great name! Seriously great name. Right up there with Jaguar, Lexus and Tesla among the best auto brand names (combination of great and appropriate meaning + sounding good/evocative). Any other names you think are great?
Do your best! Don't listen to the Tesla fanboys.
Tesla & Lucid aren't even competing tho, Lucid is operating in the luxury segment whereas Tesla is targeting the masses with 25k ~ 45k cars. Clickbait titles
What an exciting time for the auto market! I myself will be deciding between a Model S Plaid and Lucid Air Dream Edition. I’m leaning towards the Plaid for the dollar for dollar value. Either way it looks like they’ll both be amazing.
go for the Lucid Air, you wont be disappointed for sure. Build quality and offering for tesla is not worth the price.
where do i buy this lucid motor at?
