Any Difference between 2024 and 2025 Sapphire?

[Lch90]

Hi All,

Curious if there is any real difference between the 2024 and 2025 Lucid Air Sapphire? I know that the Lucid Air's received a processor upgrade and heat pump upgrade in 2025. However, my understanding is that the new heat pump was already on the Sapphire. I can't seem to find any documentation on the processor though. Anyone know?

About $90,000?

I can confirm, my 2024 Sapphire has both, the new chip and the new heat pump.

Curious about real range for the Sapphire. I take delivery of a 2026 Sapphire on Thursday of next week and interested in range experience of other Sapphire owners. Thanks!

Hey, welcome to the club!

My 2025 Sapphire has a lifetime average efficiency around 2.7mi/kwh, with it inching up to the low 3s if I'm doing mostly highway driving in mild weather. Winter efficiency drops to around 2 mi/kwh. All of these numbers are without the optional wheel covers and with the stock summer tires.

For what it's worth, the numbers roughly line up with the results from Out of Spec's 70MPH range test. Inside EVs summarized the results here: https://insideevs.com/reviews/776939/lucid-air-sapphire-range/
