Lucid Motors doubled EV output in 2025 after early Gravity SUV struggles

Lucid Motors significantly increased its electric vehicle production in 2025, doubling output to 18,378 units compared to the previous year. The company produced 8,412 vehicles in the fourth quarter alone, surpassing production in the first half of the year at its Casa Grande, Arizona factory. Deliveries also rose by 55% to 15,841 vehicles in 2025, signaling a recovery from earlier production and quality challenges, particularly with its new Gravity SUV. Despite these gains, Lucid’s actual production and delivery numbers remain well below the ambitious targets set in its 2021 public listing, which projected 135,000 vehicles delivered in 2025. The early part of 2025 was marked by difficulties ramping up Gravity SUV production and addressing significant quality and software issues, prompting interim CEO Marc Winterhoff to acknowledge customer frustrations and commit to resolving these problems. Looking ahead, Lucid plans to launch its first mid-sized EV on a new platform, priced around $50
