關鍵點:
- Lucid shares rise 11%
- Air sedan owners get a win
- EV maker having a good month
It’s been a month packed with boosters for the EV maker — after an Uber partnership, Air sedan owners can now use Tesla’s network to charge up.
🔌 Lucid Charges Ahead
- Lucid
LCID surged 11% on Tuesday to $3.13 a share, adding more spark to an already electric month for the luxury EV maker. The latest boost? Access to Tesla’s Supercharger network for owners of its sleek, $70K+ Air sedan.
- By the end of the month, AIr drivers will be able to tap into Tesla’s vast US charging infrastructure, a move that could ease range anxiety and boost mainstream appeal. That’s two back-to-back catalysts after last week’s Uber robotaxi announcement.
- For traders and investors, it’s a strong signal that Lucid’s no longer just building cars — it’s plugging into ecosystems that actually move the needle.
🚗 Convenience (Mostly) Delivered
- There’s a catch (sort of): Air sedans will need a $220 adapter to juice up at Tesla stations. Given the starting price of an Air, it’s a drop in the (luxury) bucket — but not without quirks.
- Lucid’s Air boasts a 300kW peak charging rate, but with the Tesla adapter, that drops dramatically to about 50kW. That translates to ~200 miles of range per hour, much slower than what Lucid’s native charging tech can do (which is about 15 minutes).
- IN other words, it’s more of a backup solution than a primary power source — but a welcome one for road-trippers or city dwellers short on options and looking to park up and grab a coffee for a break.
🚘 EV Congestion Coming Soon?
- Tesla’s Supercharger network is increasingly becoming the de facto standard for US EVs — with Ford, GM, Rivian, and now Lucid joining the club.
- As more non-Tesla cars pile in, longer wait times could become the new normal — especially with vehicles like the Air tapping in at reduced speeds.
- Still, the strategic benefit is clear: Lucid is gaining infrastructure credibility, which matters for buyers and markets alike. And after spending much of 2025 in the $3 wilderness, the stock finally has some real charge behind it.
