Tesla Model S Plaid drag races against the newly-launched Lucid Air Dream Edition Performance.
It was perhaps the most anticipated drag race competition within the electric vehicle community — pitting the Tesla Model S Plaid against the newly-launched Lucid Air Dream Edition Performance. And, as the name suggests, this is the performance variant of the Lucid Air luxury electric sedan.
Looking at the comparison table for these two electric cars, the Lucid Air does seem to have scored better than the Model S. But this comes at an additional price of $39,100, and that is definitely not small change. Lucid also designed the Air with an amazing drag coefficient of 0.21 Cd, which is very close to the 0.208 Cd of the Tesla Model S. The lower the aerodynamic drag, the more an electric vehicle delivers range and performance. The Model S Plaid is also 408 lb lighter than the Lucid Air Dream Edition Performance. Lucid is substantially heavier because of its larger battery pack.host Brooks Weisblat reached out to Lucid to provide him with a test unit. However, the automaker refused.
In the 1st attempt, both cars started the race at 92% state-of-charge and both used their launch controls . Here, the Tesla Plaid totally outclassed the Lucid Air Performance.
