The Lucid Motors Gravity Grand Touring EV will be powered by lithium-ion battery cells from Panasonic Energy.

The Gravity’s battery pack will deliver an EPA-estimated range of up to 450 miles, according to the companies.

The Gravity is an SUV with up to 120 cubic feet of total usable cargo space. It offers 828 horsepower and can reach 60 mph in under 3.5 seconds. 

Panasonic Energy’s latest-generation 2170 cylindrical cells, which offer an energy density above 800 Wh/L, are designed to meet Lucid’s requirements for fast charging, safety, longevity and performance. Lucid Gravity will be one of the first vehicles to use the cell at scale.

The partnership between Panasonic Energy and Lucid was established through several multi-year agreements in 2022. Lucid also uses Panasonic’s batteries in its Air Pure EV.

Lucid started producing the Gravity Grand Touring in December 2024 at its vertically integrated factory in Arizona. The Lucid Gravity Touring, planned for late 2025, will also use Panasonic Energy’s 2170 batteries. The battery cells are currently produced in Japan, but production is expected to move to Panasonic’s new production facility in Kansas.

“By combining our high-performance, high-energy density cells with Lucid’s technology, we have been able to utilize the unique characteristics of our cylindrical cells, resulting in an SUV with high performance and range,” said Kazuo Tadanobu, CEO of Panasonic Energy.
