Interestingly, the models with larger wheels consume more electricity per mile than their smaller wheel counterparts.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nThe smaller wheel models can travel around 0.01 – 0.02 miles further per kWh compared to their larger wheel counterparts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This appears to be due to the weight difference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The larger wheel models are 33 lbs heavier by default<\/strong> (excluding any optional extras). <\/p>\n\n\n\nFor example, the 2022 Lucid Air Grand Touring with 19in wheels<\/strong> weighs 5,203 lbs and uses 0.26 kWh per mile. On the other hand, the 2022 Lucid Air Grand Touring with 21in wheels<\/strong> weighs 5,236 lbs and consumes 0.28 kWh per mile.<\/p>\n\n\n\nSo how does this impact the cost per mile? Let\u2019s take a look.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Lucid Air cost per mile<\/h2>\n\n\n\n It costs between $0.039 and $0.045 per mile, in electricity, to drive a Lucid Air EV.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nThis assumes you charge at home and have a kWh rate of $0.15 (the US average in 2024).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Lucid Air cost per mile varies by model.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The table below shows the cost per mile for each Lucid Air model.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nLucid Air model<\/strong><\/td>Cost per mile<\/strong><\/td>Cost per kilometer<\/strong><\/td><\/tr>2022 Lucid Air Grand Touring with 19in wheels<\/td> $0.039<\/td> $0.024<\/td><\/tr> 2022 Lucid Air Dream Range with 19in wheels<\/td> $0.041<\/td> $0.025<\/td><\/tr> 2022 Lucid Air Grand Touring with 21in wheels<\/td> $0.042<\/td> $0.026<\/td><\/tr> 2022 Lucid Air Dream Performance with 19in wheels<\/td> $0.044<\/td> $0.027<\/td><\/tr> 2022 Lucid Air Dream Range with 21in wheels<\/td> $0.044<\/td> $0.027<\/td><\/tr> 2022 Lucid Air Dream Performance with 21in wheels<\/td> $0.045<\/td> $0.028<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\nAgain, the cost per kilometer is included for convenience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The table is arranged from lowest to highest cost per mile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As expected, given that they consume slightly more electricity, the models with larger wheels cost more per mile than their smaller wheel counterparts.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nThe Lucid Air Grand Touring with 21in wheels costs 0.3 of 1 cent (i.e. $0.003) more per mile than the 19in version.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It\u2019s not a lot more but the difference can add up if you\u2019re putting a lot of mileage on the car.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
$0.003 more per mile works out to $40.43 more per year, assuming you drive the average distance for US drivers (which is 13,476 according to the United States Department of Transportation \u2013 Federal Highway Administration).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The difference may be quite a lot more depending on how much you pay per kWh of electricity<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\nCheck out the calculator below to work out your Lucid Air electricity costs, without having to do the math.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But you\u2019ll need some key Lucid Air specs (by model) to get the best results from the calculator. Specifically, the kWh \/ 100 mi for each model and their battery capacity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
kWh\/100 mi by model<\/h2>\n\n\n\n Lucid Air kWh\/100 mi ranges from 26 kWh to 30 kWh and varies by model.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nThe table below lists how many kWh per 100 miles that each Lucid Air model uses.<\/p>\n\n\n\nLucid Air model<\/strong><\/td>kWh per 100 miles<\/strong><\/td>kWh per 100 kilometers<\/strong><\/td><\/tr>2022 Lucid Air Grand Touring with 19in wheels<\/td> 26 kWh\/100 mi<\/td> 16.16 kWh\/100 km<\/td><\/tr> 2022 Lucid Air Dream Range with 19in wheels<\/td> 27 kWh\/100 mi<\/td> 16.78 kWh\/100 km<\/td><\/tr> 2022 Lucid Air Grand Touring with 21in wheels<\/td> 28 kWh\/100 mi<\/td> 17.40 kWh\/100 km<\/td><\/tr> 2022 Lucid Air Dream Performance with 19in wheels<\/td> 29 kWh\/100 mi<\/td> 18.02 kWh\/100 km<\/td><\/tr> 2022 Lucid Air Dream Range with 21in wheels<\/td> 29 kWh\/100 mi<\/td> 18.02 kWh\/100 km<\/td><\/tr> 2022 Lucid Air Dream Performance with 21in wheels<\/td> 30 kWh\/100 mi<\/td> 18.64 kWh\/100 km<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\nThe mileage figures above were sourced from the EPA.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nThe kWh per 100 kilometers figures are based on the kWh\/100 mi figures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As mentioned, you\u2019ll need these figures along with the battery capacity figures to work out your own Lucid Air charging and mileage costs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Lucid Air battery capacities<\/h2>\n\n\n\n Lucid Air battery capacities are either 112 kWh or 118 kWh depending on the model.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nThe 2022 Lucid Air Grand Touring models have a battery capacity of 112 kWh, while the Dream editions have a 118 kWh capacity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The table below lists the battery capacity for each Lucid Air model.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nLucid Air model<\/strong><\/td>Battery capacity (kWh)<\/strong><\/td><\/tr>2022 Lucid Air Grand Touring with 19in wheels<\/td> 112 kWh<\/td><\/tr> 2022 Lucid Air Dream Range with 19in wheels<\/td> 118 kWh<\/td><\/tr> 2022 Lucid Air Grand Touring with 21in wheels<\/td> 112 kWh<\/td><\/tr> 2022 Lucid Air Dream Performance with 19in wheels<\/td> 118 kWh<\/td><\/tr> 2022 Lucid Air Dream Range with 21in wheels<\/td> 118 kWh<\/td><\/tr> 2022 Lucid Air Dream Performance with 21in wheels<\/td> 118 kWh<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\nNow that we have the power consumption per mile and the battery capacity for each model, we can use the Lucid Air Charging Cost Calculator to estimate the running costs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
