DRIVING A LUCID AIR EV ACROSS EUROPE | DENMARK TO NORWAY

EV Channels Review

The reviewer embarks on a significant leg of their European road trip in the Lucid Air, traveling from Denmark to Oslo, Norway. The journey highlights the Lucid Air's capabilities as a road trip vehicle, with the reviewer praising its comfort and the overall experience. However, the review points out a significant drawback: the charging performance, particularly in Norway, is deemed underwhelming for a car at its price point. Despite the car's efficiency, the charging speeds, especially when arriving with a low state of charge and a preconditioned battery, are not as impressive as expected, with speeds topping out around 230 kW before tapering down. The reviewer notes that some performance EVs might even charge better. The abundance of EV charging infrastructure in Sweden and Norway is lauded, though the cost at some of these high-end charging sites is also mentioned as a factor. The reviewer concludes that while the Lucid Air is a beautiful and comfortable car, its charging performance needs improvement to match its premium price tag.
