I don't want to "test" it by just plugging in to see if it works.

why not? That's better than arguing with strangers in the Internet (i.e. myself) who will tell you Lucid Air is not yet provisioned to use Superchargers (other that those equipped with MagicDock)

Charging Air Pure at Superchargers?
I haven't found an answer to this question yet so here goes.

1. In the Tesla app > Charge Your Other EV > Add your vehicle details > Make: Lucid Motors > Models: Lucid Air Grand Touring, Lucid Air Touring, Lucid Gravity are the only options. No Lucid Air Pure optionas of today 7/18.2025.
   • Has anyone successfully charged a Pure at a Supercharger?
   • I don't want to "test" it by just plugging in to see if it works.

Given that my AT is restricted to under 50kW at V4 Superchargers, I don't think you have much to worry about.

OK got it. I have also read that even if you were to use a Supercharger the most you'll get is 50 Kwh. Unfortunately, I know from experience that even 50 kWh is better than many of the stations you get through EA, EVGO, ChargePoint, Francis Energy, Blink, EV Gateway, and EVCS. I've plugged into all of those across the country - and they advertise 150 to 350 kWh - only to have it max out at 40 kWh. It's often accompanied by a message saying - limited by station or something along those lines.

So yeah, I don't want to use a Supercharger, but...needs must.

To be clear, the great charging sessions far outnumbered the bad ones, but the bad ones stood out because they were the only stations around. No choice. I think I even had one session at or near 200 kWh! They were mostly in the 100 - 150 range which I'll take any day. EA and EVGO stood out, in a good way, on my 5,000 mile trip.

I see that now - in the Tesla app if you choose any of the Air trims you'll see that there are no Superchargers for you! Choose the Gravity and the 250 - 350 kWh stations pop up on the map. There you go. Except for the magicdock stations you mentioned.
