      Lucid will unveil a new concept at the Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance.

      This model seems to be an off-road themed electric vehicle equipped with cladding and a roof rack.

      It is based on the 828 hp Gravity Grand Touring, which starts at $94,900.

      Lucid plans to leverage Monterey Car Week to present a new concept that takes its inspiration from the Gravity Grand Touring. While the company is refraining from providing detailed information at this stage, they hinted that it focuses on off-road capabilities for “electric exploration.”

      

      Although the automaker is keeping details under wraps, they have shared several teaser images suggesting features such as robust side skirts and glossy black wheels. A roof rack featuring built-in auxiliary lights is also visible in the images.

      The enigmatic concept will be revealed on August 14 before it is publicly showcased at the Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance on the 17th. Very little is known about the model at this time, though the Gravity Grand Touring starts at $94,900 and incorporates a dual-motor all-wheel drive system producing 828 hp (617 kW / 840 PS). This enables the vehicle to accelerate from 0 to 60 mph (0 to 96 km/h) in 3.4 seconds and allows for a range of up to 450 miles (724 km) on a single charge.

      

      In addition to its impressive specifications, the crossover includes LED lighting, a front trunk, and a powered liftgate. It features staggered wheels that measure 20 inches at the front and 21 inches at the back.

      The standard five-seat interior showcases PurLuxe upholstery with heating and 12-way power adjustments for the front seats. Buyers will also find a 34-inch digital instrument cluster and infotainment system, along with a 12.6-inch lower display. Additional features include a ten-speaker audio system, a wireless smartphone charger, and ambient lighting.

      Alongside showcasing the concept, Lucid will provide demonstration drives of the Air and Gravity for attendees. Visitors can stop by their booth to learn more about the vehicles and enjoy wellness drinks, a “cryo-fueled refresh,” and a “scent journey inspired by California’s iconic landscapes.”
