.LucidMotors Air dethrones Tesla Model S as new EV 1000 king of the ring:
Athens, Ohio, is prime real estate for a fast-charger, but we didn't find any new stations along the route. Our next high-voltage connection would be some 377 miles away. The rolling Appalachian terrain threatened to eat every last electron, yet the Lucid covered the stretch with 6 percent of its battery capacity left. Once again chargers were down, the 350-kW unit didn't deliver what's promised, and defeated patrons drove away."I'll take what I can get.
After 36 minutes and with 75 percent charge showing, the race against the clock was on. The Lucid would require a quick splash east of Toledo for the final push, and once again, the 350-kW charger didn't deliver. The Lucid could've taken less time had the charges been quicker, and it may have required just two stops. Electrify America recently raised $450 million to expand its network, but the cash might be better spent ensuring that the current equipment works.
