2027 Lucid Air: safety, recalls and fuel economy

Lucid sells the Air through its own stores and website instead of independent franchised dealers. That means there's no group of dealers to put in competition, and our service doesn't apply. We'd rather tell you that than take a fee we can't earn.

What you can still control

Your trim and options, whether you buy a new or inventory unit the company is clearing, your financing rate, and whether you pay for delivery or pick it up. Get a credit union or bank pre-approval before you order. On a car this size, the loan rate can matter more than any other line on the bill.

2027 Lucid Air safety ratings

NHTSA hasn't published 5-Star Safety Ratings for the 2027 Lucid Air yet. Newer, low-volume and luxury models are often not tested. Check NHTSA's ratings page before you buy, and look for crash-test results from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety as well.
