Lucid Gravity — Common Ownership Questions
What is the Lucid Gravity 5-year cost of ownership in 2026?
Based on a Popular-trim purchase at $87,500 with a 20% down payment, a 5-year loan at the national average new-car APR, 12,000 miles per year, and national average tax and insurance, the estimated 5-year cost of ownership is $91,503 — about $18,301 per year — with an estimated $32,375 residual value after 5 years. Use the calculator above to tailor it to your state, down payment, and mileage.
How much does a Lucid Gravity depreciate each year?
The Gravity sits in the ev segment. Applying a segment-average retention curve, it is estimated to keep roughly 78% of its value after the first year and 37% after five years. Depreciation is typically the single largest ownership cost, which is why our calculator shows it year by year alongside every other expense.
What is the Lucid Gravity MSRP and which trims are available?
The Gravity ranges from $80,000 (Base (entry trim)) to $95,000 (Top (fully loaded)). Trims shown: Base (entry trim) ($80,000); Popular (mid trim) ($87,500); Top (fully loaded) ($95,000). Select a trim in the calculator to recompute costs instantly.
Is the Lucid Gravity eligible for a federal or state EV tax credit in 2026?
The federal clean-vehicle tax credit ended September 30, 2025, so new EVs no longer qualify at the point of sale in 2026. Some states and local utilities still offer rebates — check your state's page for current incentives. The Gravity's lower energy and maintenance costs help offset the lost federal credit.
What are the Lucid Gravity energy costs?
The Gravity is EPA-rated at 108 MPGe, about 31 kWh per 100 miles. At the 2026 U.S. average of $0.16/kWh that is roughly $2,995 in electricity over 5 years (12,000 miles/year). EVs also skip oil changes, lowering maintenance.
How do Lucid Gravity ownership costs compare with rivals?
See the side-by-side comparison table on this page. We model the Gravity against Rivian R1S, Tesla Cybertruck, Tesla Model X, Tesla Model S using identical assumptions — same annual miles, down payment, and loan terms — so the difference is truly apples-to-apples. That is data the manufacturer's site and KBB do not show side by side.
What are the most common Lucid Gravity problems?
Owners of the Lucid Gravity (2025) most often report: 12V battery; Software instability; Tire cost; DC charging variation. Each is broken down with its root cause and the repair path in the reliability section above.
Which OBD-II codes does the Lucid Gravity throw most often?
The codes logged most frequently for this platform are P0AA6 (Hybrid/EV Battery Isolation Fault), P0AFA (HV Battery System Voltage Low), P0D61 (Drive Motor Inverter Performance). The full list with the cause usually found on the 88-118 kWh 900V EV Powertrain and a low/medium/high severity rating is in the fault-code table above.
Why does my Lucid Gravity 12V battery failure?
On this model the usual cause is 12V degradation. The typical repair is replace 12V battery (reported on 2025 cars). The symptoms table above lists every reported fault for this platform.
Are there model-year-specific Lucid Gravity issues I should check before buying used?
Yes — 2022-2023 cars are associated with glass roof cracking. Recommended action: roof replacement under warranty Later builds were corrected. The model-year table above lists all known production-window issues.
What are the Lucid Gravity service intervals and fluid specs?
Factory spec calls for 255/45R21 tires at 38 psi cold, tire rotation every 7,500 miles, brake fluid every 30,000 miles, and a 12V auxiliary battery of group H7 at 760 CCA. As an EV there is no engine oil or spark plug service. The full spec sheet is above and printable.
