Is the 2023 Lucid Air a good car?

The 2023 Lucid Air earns a 7.17/10 expert rating.

The standout strength is Look and feel at 10/10.

It backs that up with a stylish design, a spacious interior, and impressive electric range, and it comes across as a polished, ambitious first effort from a new luxury EV brand. The trade-offs are clear: buggy in-cabin technology and an aggravating lane-keeping system can make the experience feel less sorted than the design and packaging suggest. For you, that means the Air makes the most sense if you want a roomy, distinctive electric sedan and can live with some tech rough edges.

30.9% of listings are priced as good or great deals, so there is meaningful shopping opportunity if you compare carefully.

Is the 2023 Lucid Air reliable?

The 2023 Lucid Air is presented as an impressively engineered electric luxury sedan, but its technology bugs are a recurring concern. The expert evaluation also points to buggy displays, inconsistent driver-assistance behavior, and an air-conditioning system that struggled on hot days.

Its electric drivetrain is described as quiet, quick, and comfortable, and the platform is engineered to maximize interior room and passenger comfort without giving up power or capability. Lucid also says the car’s advanced driver-assistance hardware is built to work in nearly any weather condition, including foggy nights.

For used buyers, the main long-term ownership risk is that the car’s software and control systems may remain the weak link even if the hardware is strong.

What should I look for when buying a used 2023 Lucid Air?

Accident-free inventory is excellent at 92.1% — clean inventory, standard diligence applies.

You should still run a history report and prioritize a pre-purchase inspection, especially if you’re considering a car with advanced driver-assistance hardware or lots of software-dependent features. Pay close attention to how the displays, climate control, and lane-keeping systems behave during a test drive, since those are the areas that drew the most criticism. For an EV like this, battery condition and charging behavior matter too, so make sure the car charges normally at home and on DC fast charging.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The lineup includes Pure, Touring, Grand Touring, and Sapphire. The Pure trim made the starting price more palatable, while the higher trims add more equipment and capability.
• Powertrain: The Air can be equipped with a dual-motor AWD setup, and the test car delivered 480 hp, 384 miles of maximum range, and 200 kW of maximum recharging capacity.
• Safety package: DreamDrive is standard and includes adaptive cruise control, forward collision warning, automatic emergency braking, lane-departure warning, lane-keeping assist, blind-spot monitoring, front and rear cross-traffic alert, rear pedestrian detection with automatic braking, distracted and drowsy driver alert, traffic sign recognition, parking sensors, and semi-autonomous parking assist. DreamDrive Premium adds a surround-view camera system and blind-spot cameras. DreamDrive Pro adds Highway Assist.
• Infotainment: The Air uses a 34-inch Glass Cockpit display with 5K resolution, plus a 12.3-inch Pilot Panel. It supports wireless Apple CarPlay, OTA updates, and Amazon Alexa compatibility.
• Range & charging: The test car was rated at 384 miles of maximum range and 200 kW of maximum recharging capacity, with Lucid saying it can add 200 miles of range in around 15 minutes on a suitable charger.
• Battery health: Check battery state-of-health, confirm normal charging behavior at home and on DC fast charging, and review how much of the battery warranty remains before you buy.

Which 2023 Lucid Air trim should I buy?

The 2023 Lucid Air is offered in 4 trim levels: Pure, Touring, Grand Touring, and Sapphire.

Here's the short version:

• Pure: This is the trim that makes the Air’s starting price more approachable, so it’s the one to focus on if you want the best value and still want the core Air experience.
• Touring: Choose this if you want a step up from the entry trim and expect a more richly equipped luxury EV without jumping to the highest prices.
• Grand Touring: This is the better pick if you want the stronger long-range, higher-output version of the Air and are willing to pay for it.
• Sapphire: This is the halo trim for buyers who want the most extreme performance and the most exclusive version of the lineup.

DreamDrive is standard, while DreamDrive Premium and DreamDrive Pro add more advanced camera and driving-assistance hardware.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2023 Lucid Air?

This looks like a moderate, selective buyer’s market.

• Deal availability: 30.9% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 391 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 14.41% compared with last year.
• Clean inventory: 92.1% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $44,422.52, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2023 Lucid Air's resale value?

The current average of $44,266 sits slightly below last year's $51,717.

That drop suggests the market has already adjusted downward, which can help you as a buyer today. For a future seller, it means resale value may remain sensitive to pricing pressure unless demand strengthens. If you buy well now, you may reduce the sting of depreciation later, but you should still expect this model year to be price-competitive in the used market.

Is the 2023 Lucid Air safe?

It earns a 6/10 safety score from our experts.

DreamDrive is the standard driver-assistance suite, and it includes adaptive cruise control, forward collision warning, automatic emergency braking, lane-departure warning, lane-keeping assist, blind-spot monitoring, front and rear cross-traffic alert, rear pedestrian detection with automatic braking, distracted and drowsy driver alert, traffic sign recognition, parking sensors, and semi-autonomous parking assist.

DreamDrive Premium adds a surround-view camera system and blind-spot cameras, while DreamDrive Pro adds Highway Assist and the full 32-sensor hardware set. The main caveat is that the lane-keeping and lane-centering behavior can be intrusive and inconsistent, so you should test those systems carefully before you buy.

Should I buy a 2023 Lucid Air or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2023 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2023 if:

• 30.9% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Accident-free inventory is excellent at 92.1% — clean inventory, standard diligence applies.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 14.41% compared with last year.
• It combines strong range, a spacious cabin, and a standout first-year luxury-EV impression.

Consider the 2024 if:

• It adds the Sapphire trim and brings major price changes.

The bottom line: If you want the better value play, the 2023 is the one to target because prices have already softened and the market offers a decent number of deals. If you’re willing to spend more for the newer-year changes and the added halo trim, the 2024 is the path to consider.
