Lucid Air Dream Edition Range | NEW HYPERMILING RECORD
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 23 พ.ค. 2022
- With modern EVs, Range is a luxury. While charging at home is an option for many, the ability to drive long distances without concern for your range makes traveling in an EV even easier. That's why Lucid Motors worked so hard to deliver an EPA estimated 520 miles of range with their Air luxury sedan; A number that puts them over one hundred miles past the competition. And while that may seem hard to believe, this claim was recently independently verified by @InsideEVs US 's Tom Moloughney who drove an Air for almost 8 hours at a constant 80mph, but even Tom didn't drive it until the battery was totally dead. For this video, we wanted to know how much farther it could go.
At the end of our testing, we couldn't quite travel farther than one-off prototype vehicles but we successfully traveled farther than any other production EV has traveled on public roads on a single charge officially beating the record previously held by @Sean Mitchell & @DÆrik : • 600 Hypermile In Tesla...

I feel like we’re not excited enough about the fact that an EV that is currently available to the public is capable of driving SEVEN HUNDRED miles. Unreal. Congrats Lucid. Great video, guys.
At 25 mph. That's not what should get us excited. 400 miles doing 75 mph is what's impressive.
@@KyleHubb
It does 500
@@rogerstarkey5390 At what average speed?! SMH
@@KyleHubb at 70mph. There is a Video by the guys at Inside EV's where they did it that was posted 4months ago.
@@Amelia_834 I tried the ID.4 and never got anywhere near the 250 miles InsideEvs claimed they got at 70 mph. This was in Texas summer. So, who knows.
It is great to see Lucid Air has such amazing range if driving about 27mph. It will fit the daily using especially in Asia city which the vehicle speed usually around since 25 to 37mph only.
Fun times with friends no matter how far you go. I'm glad to see you all again. I must admit, I am a bit jealous. Excelsior...
I’ll have to call you up for the next one of our crazy drives
@@KLWTTS Deal!
Next time I can DEFINITELY do a 4+ hour leg of a drive. I do Fresno to L.A. (vice versa) all the time in my Model 3 so I'm used to the long haul👍
Excellent video. Great production quality.
Absolutely great video, super cool idea, amazing editing as always, and of course, a fantastic bunch of drivers! Great Job!
Such a cool video, great job team! Great storytelling and cinematography too :)
Thanks so much! Team work made the dream work here for sure!
I love the Lucid Air, what an absolutely amazing gorgeous car 😍
Wish I could have gone and seen a Lucid in person. At least I got to see your Rivian while it was in SLC, which was sweet. Zack let me check it out while you guys were starting this long endeavor. Well done!
Excellent work Kilowatts team!! Congrats on a worthy attempt. Next stop 700 mi?
Maybe 800??
Good effort and well worth watching!
Good teamwork!
Did you arbitrarily pick 27mph or did you get that from Lucid? On my Air GT I've noticed subtle cogging at very low speeds. Every inverter/motor combo has its own optimum efficiency point and by feel I was thinking something slightly quicker (33-34) might be more efficient overall, especially with the thinner air up there in the high desert.
I am really glad that Lucid helped with the effort and your result is truly impressive.
Congratulations!
Lucid told us "Between 25 and 30 should be good" so we tested a little bit, then shot the middle
5:09 "Too fast, too fast!" Haha
Great video, congratulations on the new record, thank you for sharing! 🔌⚡🚘
Good 👍 vividly remember you were testing drive at the opening day at Casa Grande.
Curious if you could squeeze a few more miles by retracting the center screen since screens a power hungry, and have just 1 driver no passengers.
Thank You for All that you are doing for our Planet Earth.... Peace.. Shalom.. Salam.. Namaste .. 🙏🏻 😊 🌈 ✌ 🌷 ☮ ❤🕊
687.4 miles
Nice. Real world test. Liked, commented and subscribed.
Well done guys!!!
Love this!
Super video guys!!! Can you make another video at 70 mph.
Great video Ryan! I hate you Zack 😂😂😂
What fun!
That’s very cool! Not driving 27 mph though fir that long anytime soon. Lol
I’m guessing bladders were emptied prior to each driver’s 3 hour schedule?!
Peace.. Shalom.. Salam.. Namaste 🙏🏻 😊 🌈 ✌ ☮ ❤
Yoooo, I was the 500th like! Great video!
That was very interesting almost 700 miles of range but driving 27 miles is like only in a school zone real life I think it can totally do over 520 miles estimate like my model 3 performance that’s supposed to get 315 miles gets close to 270 miles with me driving like a dumb ass all the time 😂
Yeah, Lucid is the real deal when it comes to range
@@KLWTTS I feel like if someone doesn’t like the minimalist interior of Tesla and wants something more luxurious and bigger should spend extra 50-60k and get a Lucid instead of a S Plaid I personally love all 3 companies Lucid, Rivian, Tesla but I bought my model 3 performance for the decent speed and range + FSD in 3-4 years I’m definitely changing to a future model of Lucid or Tesla maybe they will do a full redesign of Model S
@@MahdiyarSaberi The Lucid Air GT (Same car w/800hp, it's enough) is effectively the same price as the Plaid, 516 EPA miles.
Well as far as efficiency, several testers have gotten more range from the 5000lb i4 M50 than the Model 3P.
Did I see no headlights on at night in that timelapse?
Great catch! Yeah we tried to reduce any additional energy pull from the pack so we only ran the DRLs at night and kept the headlights off except when we saw vehicles coming down the road
6:42 lol
Their super efficent motor comes from their formula E heritage
Results 687.4 miles 7:45 . Is it getting this range because of efficiency or battery size? 27 mph is not exactly every day drivin nor is 64 psi in tyres.
I don't think anything we do in our normal day could be confused as an attempt at a world record. So why would this attempt at a world record be confused as an attempt at "every day drivin"?
@@skittlesRgood182 Because it distorts the reality of what the Lucid Air can really do, which is about 450 miles on its best day. Plus, if you're trying to make a record. at least do it realistically at highway speeds. Who drives 27 MPH anywhere?? This record has a LOT of asterisks attached to it.
Inside EVs was able to achieve 500+ miles at 70mph, no reason to make a video duplicating that, we wanted to do something different
#best_car_ever
Couldn't you just have a car in front of you? This would break wind resistance.
Honestly probably not against the rules...
I would like to see a Lucid or any EV at a steady 7-8mph or legal interstate speed cross country. Say the SPAM Museum, MN to Wall Drug, SD. About 480 miles and legal speeds up to 80mph. This is something I have done in a day no issue in a gasoline powered vehicle without refueling . Will this test even come close to the EPA eMPG rating?
Already done, check out InsideEVs video on their 70mph test
whats with the aluminum foil protection on roof top th-cam.com/video/m9mVy9ze3po/w-d-xo.html it comes as a gift from Lucid??? its hilarious if you need to drive like that because of the sun cooking you....
We used a sun visor to decrease the heat from the sun even more than would normally be needed because we needed to keep the AC turned off
Fun experiment and cool to see other EVs! I appreciate the range and efficiency but I still think the Lucid looks like an ugly station wagon.
They didn't do it by just stuffing a massive pack in It. Meanwhile irl the lucid air has the largest pack size outside of the hummev rivian r1t and lightning er. In fact the lucid pack is 20% larger than the base model lightning pack is. And nobody actually knows how large it is because Tom muloghney from inside evs showed it took over 134kwhs to recharge it and Edmunds showed theirs took over 143kwhs to fully recharge.😀
Also the ONE tesla model s with their custom pack in it got 880miles at 50mph last summer and 750+in winter driving an average of 50+mph on Detroit roads. 🤔
This video was clickbaity. Who realistically would be driving at 27 mph?
People trying to maximize the range to achieve a record? Nothing clickbaity in my view. It's a bit like saying sure Usain Bolt can do 9.5 second hundred but your average Joe on the street would never go that quick.
@@iannealcole It's called 'illogical clickbait'
No one
So if we drive like a granny we can get 687 miles per charge.
Even your grandma doesn’t drive this slow
Zzzzzzz
