Lucid’s new Gravity crossover gains access to the Tesla Supercharger network Jan. 31, but the automaker’s first vehicle, the Air sedan, will have to wait until the second quarter, Lucid said.

The Gravity, which has a starting price of $96,550 with shipping, is the first Lucid model to incorporate the Tesla-designed charging connector known as the J3400 standard. The Air, which launched three years ago, uses the previous Combined Charging System connector and will require an adapter on the Tesla network.

“From January 31st, Lucid Gravity gains wide access, with no adapter necessary, to the Tesla Supercharger network, the most available and convenient charging network in the US and Canada,” Lucid said in a Jan. 28 press release. Lucid launched the Gravity in December with nine vehicle deliveries to early customers.

Tesla’s fast-charging network offers more than 20,000 Superchargers to Lucid owners in the U.S. and Canada as part of an agreement announced in November 2023, Lucid said.

Tesla has more than 29,000 Superchargers at about 2,500 stations in the U.S., making it the largest fast-charging network, according to the U.S. Department of Energy. Some older Tesla chargers are not compatible with non-Tesla vehicles. In Canada, Tesla has about 2,400 Superchargers at 237 charging stations, the agency said.

Tesla CEO Elon Musk first reached an agreement in May 2023 with Ford Motor Co. to open Superchargers to non-Tesla vehicles, followed by similar deals with nearly every other automaker in North America. Tesla formally opened access to Ford customers in February 2024, followed by Rivian, General Motors, Volvo, Polestar and Nissan by the end of the year.

Mercedes-Benz said Jan. 9 that its electric vehicles will join the Supercharger network in February.
