Lucid has taken the Gravity into serious performance territory.
The new 2027 Lucid Gravity GT-S is the most powerful version of the company’s three-row electric SUV, producing 1,070 horsepower and accelerating from 0 to 60 mph in a manufacturer-claimed 3.1 seconds.
Lucid describes it as America’s most powerful three-row SUV, and the numbers make that claim easy to understand.
The GT-S arrives as a sportier and more expressive addition to the Gravity lineup. It retains the SUV’s family-friendly interior and available third row while adding the kind of power and handling technology normally associated with much smaller performance vehicles.
A Three-Row SUV With Supercar Numbers
The Gravity GT-S uses a dual-motor all-wheel-drive system, but Lucid has increased output substantially beyond the regular Gravity Grand Touring.
Here is how the main 2027 Gravity variants compare:
| Model | Starting Price | Power | 0–60 mph | Range |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Gravity Touring | $79,900 | 560 hp | 4.0 seconds | Up to 337 miles |
| Gravity Grand Touring | $98,900 | 828 hp | 3.4 seconds | Up to 450 miles |
| Gravity GT-S | $125,900 | 1,070 hp | 3.1 seconds | Projected 373 miles |
Lucid lists the Gravity GT-S from $125,900 before destination, taxes, registration and optional equipment. That places it approximately $27,000 above the Grand Touring, but the additional cost brings a significant increase in performance and more specialized chassis equipment.
Built for More Than Straight-Line Speed
The horsepower figure may attract the most attention, but Lucid is also trying to make the GT-S feel sharper and more controlled on the road.
The GT-S comes standard with the company’s Dynamic Handling Package, which includes:
- Active rear-wheel steering
- Adaptive three-chamber air suspension
- Performance-focused chassis calibration
- Improved low-speed maneuverability
- Greater stability during high-speed driving
These features are especially important because the Gravity remains a large luxury SUV. It has a long wheelbase, seating for up to seven passengers and an interior designed around comfort and practicality.
The challenge for Lucid was not simply making the GT-S accelerate quickly. The more difficult objective was making a powerful three-row SUV feel composed, responsive and predictable.
Range and Charging Still Matter
High-performance electric SUVs often sacrifice efficiency, but Lucid continues to emphasize one of its strongest competitive advantages: driving range.
The Gravity GT-S is listed with a projected range of up to 373 miles. That is lower than the Grand Touring’s maximum EPA-estimated 450 miles, but it remains competitive for a three-row electric SUV producing more than 1,000 horsepower.
Lucid also says the GT-S can add approximately 200 miles of range in about 14 minutes under ideal DC fast-charging conditions.
Actual charging performance will depend on battery temperature, charger capability, state of charge and environmental conditions. Nevertheless, the combination of strong range and rapid charging makes the GT-S more than a short-distance performance vehicle.
It is still designed to function as a long-distance family SUV.
Subtle Sapphire Inspiration
Lucid has not positioned the GT-S as a full Gravity Sapphire, but the influence of the high-performance Lucid Air Sapphire is visible throughout the design.
The Gravity GT-S receives several exclusive visual details, including:
- Blue exterior accents
- Blue brake calipers
- Performance-oriented wheels and tires
- Blue interior details
- Special contrast stitching
- Lucid Bear logos embossed into the headrests
The result is deliberately restrained. Rather than turning the GT-S into an exaggerated special edition, Lucid has preserved the Gravity’s clean design while giving the performance model a more distinctive identity.
Luxury and Practicality Remain Central
Despite the performance upgrades, the Gravity GT-S remains a practical luxury SUV.
Depending on its configuration, the Gravity offers seating for up to seven adults, a flexible second row and a foldable third row that creates a large cargo area when additional passenger capacity is not required.
The cabin also retains Lucid’s technology-focused layout, including its curved display, central control interface, connected vehicle features and available advanced driver-assistance systems.
That combination allows the GT-S to serve several roles at once: a family vehicle, a long-distance electric SUV and a high-output performance model.
Why the Gravity GT-S Matters
The Gravity GT-S gives Lucid something strategically important: a halo version of its SUV.
The standard Gravity already competes with premium electric SUVs such as the Rivian R1S, Mercedes-Benz EQS SUV, BMW iX and Cadillac Escalade IQ. The GT-S moves Lucid into a more exclusive category where extreme performance becomes part of the ownership proposition alongside range, comfort and interior space.
It also reinforces Lucid’s broader brand identity. The company has consistently focused on efficient electric motors, long driving range, rapid charging and high-output powertrains.
The GT-S brings those characteristics together in a three-row format while giving Lucid another vehicle capable of attracting attention to the wider Gravity lineup.
Final Thoughts
The 2027 Lucid Gravity GT-S is not trying to be an ordinary family SUV.
It is designed to demonstrate that a three-row electric vehicle can provide meaningful passenger space, premium comfort, long-distance capability and extreme performance in the same package.
With 1,070 horsepower, a claimed 3.1-second 0–60 mph time, seating for up to seven and a projected 373 miles of range, the GT-S becomes one of the most technically impressive electric SUVs announced for the U.S. market.
For buyers who want family practicality without giving up serious performance, this may be the most exciting Lucid Gravity yet.
