Lucid Motors unveiled the Gravity GT-S at Monterey Car Week presenting a new high-performance three-row electric SUV; Last update: 14 August 2026. The reveal introduced the model’s key performance figures, luxury options and ordering availability on the event stage in Monterey.
Why the Gravity GT-S matters
The Gravity GT-S represents Lucid’s push to combine flagship performance with three-row utility, addressing buyers seeking both speed and space in a single vehicle. With an announced output of 1,070 horsepower and a quoted 0-60 mph time of 3.1 seconds, the GT-S positions Lucid in the upper echelon of electric SUVs and challenges legacy assumptions about family-oriented vehicles and outright performance; the model builds on technologies demonstrated in the Air Sapphire and adopts the company’s expanded performance architecture.
Performance, drivetrain and handling details
The GT-S employs upgraded motors in a dual-motor configuration that Lucid described as delivering 1,070 hp, paired with all-wheel-drive traction that achieves the 3.1-second 0-60 mph figure. Lucid installed the Dynamic Handling Package as standard equipment, which includes independent rear-axle steering and an adaptive three-chamber air suspension that automatically adjusts ride height with vehicle speed; these features are intended to balance high-speed stability with everyday comfort and to differentiate the GT-S from lower-output Gravity variants.
Design, interior and options
Visually the GT-S retains the Gravity silhouette but adds distinctive blue accents on exterior brake calipers and interior trim, including blue stitching and piping on steering wheel, door armrests and the front center armrest; the Lucid Bear logo is embossed on front seat headrests. Upholstery is available in charcoal Mojave PurLuxe Premium, with a single optional leather upgrade to Tahoe leather priced at $1,300; seatbelt accents and other bespoke touches underline the GT-S’s positioning as a luxury flagship within the Gravity line.
Pricing, availability and company statements
Lucid opened orders for the Gravity GT-S with base pricing presented in launch materials as starting at $125,900 excluding tax, title, license, options, and delivery fees; a later published configuration lists a starting price of $127,750 including a $1,850 destination charge for the 2027 model year in the U.S., and orders were reported as open with deliveries not yet scheduled. Derek Jenkins, Lucid’s chief creative officer, commented on the model’s intent: “With Lucid Gravity GT-S, we’ve created a more expressive and exhilarating interpretation of the Gravity SUV. It combines extraordinary performance with the comfort, space, and versatility that define Gravity, delivering an exceptional experience for our customers that is uniquely Lucid.”
Lucid emphasized that the GT-S extends the brand’s performance halo beyond the Air Sapphire, while the company has paused or delayed lower-cost mass-market plans to focus on higher-margin, technology-led models; this strategic context frames the GT-S as both a product and a statement of capability. The vehicle’s weight figures and official quarter-mile times were not released at debut, though observers noted that quarter-mile performance could be consistent with comparable high-output Lucid models.
Ordering is available in the United States, with Lucid indicating U.S.-only availability on initial launch material; Lucid has not confirmed global rollout timing. The model’s blend of three-row packagingflagship power and adaptive chassis systems marks a notable development in the electric SUV segment and updates prior Gravity line specifications with a clear emphasis on performance and luxury.
