The newest electric vehicle startup Lucid Motors may have just beaten Tesla Plaid Model S speed rate in a race track. Thanks to its latest and first-electric sedan called Lucid Air.
Lucid Air: Everything you should know
The Lucid Air may just be new to the industry, but it sure has a lot to offer on the plate. Especially with its horsepower speed recently mentioned in a Laguna Seca racetrack in California.
According to The Kilowatts Twitter page, the Lucid Motor's electric sedan finishes race for exactly 1 minute and 33 seconds lap time.
Here's the video footage of the race:
The Lucid Air in the video has a tri-motor setup. To help you with the comparison, The Next Web said that a Model Plaid S model is easily beatable by Lucid Air, since Plaid S was already defeated by a tune-up Tesla Model 3.
The Drive noted, however, based on the video, Lucid Air could actually beat Model Plaid S in horsepower by three seconds, and even quicker than the tune-up Tesla Model 3 by two seconds.
Unfortunately, this record is not considered official since we don't have any idea what type of speed measurement did the racetrack has done in the video.
After all, Tesla's Battery Day is coming up. Maybe we'll see a faster Model Plaid S. You'll never know.
