Kia EV9, future Air?

Seeing as to how the Sapphire has more HP which is important on the nurburgring, it leaves me wondering whether they could beat the Nevera or even go into the 6's... which is shockingly amazing. Then again, the tires and battery cooling of the sapphire may not be up to task for a long lap and the aero is definitely not as aggressive as the Turbo GT. I do hope Lucid makes an EVEN more hardcore version of the sapphire!(unlikely)
 
7:07 is amazing! Has Lucid even published a nurburgring time for the Sapphire or any Air? Given that Model S and Taycan have times, i think it's time that Lucid publish their Sapphire times. It's possible that since the car is on PS4S, it probably won't put up a good time in any case. I think the model S track pack and Taycan are on R spec tires. I doubt it would do worse than the model S (non-track pack) at the very least.

Given that the Sapphire is already $250k, i think it's highly unlikely that they would make an even more expensive Sapphire
