US-based EV maker Lucid Motors has launched its second electric vehicle called Gravity at the ongoing Los Angeles Auto Show. According to Lucid Motors, the EV is a pure electric SUV without compromise. Expected to be launched sometime next year, the EV will rival the likes of Tesla Model X and Volvo EX90.

Here is a quick look at what the Lucid Gravity electric three-row SUV has on offer.
Lucid Motors says that the Gravity SUV can accommodate up to seven people inside. The EV stands more than 5 meters long, over 2.2 meters wide and almost 1.7 meters high.By folding the two rear rows the Lucid Gravity opens up almost 3,200 litres of space. It can carry up to 680 kgs of weight and has a towing capacity of 2,700 kgs.
Lucid calls its new model SUV 2.0, which is intended to offer a combination of luxury, performance, range, design and space. What is striking at first glance is the windshield, which sweeps across the front seats. There is a glass roof over the rear seats, which makes the car appear roomier.
The interior of Lucid Gravity is spacious while the cabin is dominated by a giant, curved 34-inch screen that covers most of the dashboard on the driver's side. It also acts as a digital instrument cluster. The central console also holds another large screen described by the EV maker as ‘Pilot Panel’ and provides access to functions and systems of the car.
