Lucid tesla adapter

[ScottA]

Does anyone know will Lucid provide the adapter to the tesla supercharger network or do we have to buy the adapter, if so, is there an adapter they are recommending.

No word about it yet from Lucid.

I thought the Gravity is supposed to come with the adapter. The high voltage and high kwh will require a special adapter for super chargers. I suspect this adapter will be for sale for the Air owners soon.

Gravity already uses NACS but will come with a J1772 adapter for EA and other super chargers. They will need to sell the J1772 to nacs adapter for the Air owners.

Gravity comes with a 1000V/500A CCS to NACS adapter as well as a J1772 80A adapter. These are Lucid-branded adapters. No word yet on the adapters for Air, but this was supposed to happen this calendar quarter. The Lectron NACS to CCS adapter is also 1000V and 500A, which is more than needed today but will also handle future higher-voltage V4 superchargers. You could conceivably get this one now, but there is a caveat: all CPOs, including Tesla, state that only "manufacturer-supplied adapters" are permitted. No way to check this at the dispenser, of course, but if you have an issue they may not help you troubleshoot it if you are not on an "official" adapter. We'll see what Lucid decides to do.

Lucid sad the adapter "would be available to purchase" so don't expect to get a free one like Ford, and to a lesser extent, Kia, did.

Why would Gravity come with this? I thought it was built for NACS. I'm guessing you meant the other way around... NACS to CCS.

The Lucid Gravity comes with two charging adapters to ensure broad compatibility with various charging networks:
* CCS1 to NACS adapter: This allows the Gravity to charge at CCS1 DC fast chargers, with the adapter being rated to handle high power (up to 500A with 1000V, enabling up to 400 kW charging).
* SAE J1772 to NACS adapter: This adapter is for AC (Level 2) charging points, which are common for home or public slower charging.

Adapters are named from the source to the destination, so Gravity would come with a CCS to NACS adapter and a J1772 to NACS adapter.

Wow! Thanks! So, when Superchargers become available for the Air, I'll want a NACS to CCS adapter. I learn something every day... No matter how much I resist! Thanks again!

In a 2024 Tesla M3 Performance - my 2nd model 3. I absolutely love it. But when Air is compatible with Tesla chargers, I will definitely be looking to move. Would definitely help if they can move that price point south a bit though!

It's easy to appreciate both, though they are very different - the Model 3 Performance is a fun, stripped-down hot rod, while the Air offers sophisticated power, speed and handling.
