The first batch of Lucid Air cars is on the roads now<\/a> and we just came across the first report about DC fast charging results, released by Tesla2Lucid<\/em>.<\/p>\n

As we can see in the tweets, the Air Dream Edition with a 118 kWh battery was able to get up to 251 kW at a Electrify America fast charging station (the value fluctuated between 245 and 251 kW) at about one-fifth state-of-charge (SOC).<\/p>\n

That’s a pretty good result – not yet at 300 kW mentioned by Lucid<\/a> – but we don’t know the details – whether 300 kW is possible right away or if there will be a asoftware update, whether it’s possible at Electrify America chargers, as the car has a 900 V battery system or whether the battery was preconditioned for maximum charging rate.<\/p>\n

The app above shows remaining charging time of 1 hour and 25 minutes. We guess that this is the time to reach 100% SOC, which would suggest that the last percents will be replenished slowly. A full test is required to draw any real conclusions.<\/p>\n

One of the images shows that during the session, the car received 80 kWh in 31 minutes and 2 seconds. That would be almost 155 kW<\/strong> on average, which is one of the best results on the market.<\/p>\n

A closer look reveals that the session was from 14% to 77% SOC (63 percent points), worth some 328 miles (528 km) of range out of EPA total of 520 miles (837 km).<\/p>\n

63% out of 118 kWh would be 74.3 kWh, while 80 kWh is some 68% out of 118 kWh. We are not sure, but at this point we guess that the 5.7 kWh\u00a0difference includes auxiliary system loads, battery cooling and losses.<\/p>\n

Finally, one more tweet shows the mileage of 511 miles:<\/p>\n
