The biggest news is that starting July 31, Lucid Air owners will be able to use Tesla’s (TSLA) Supercharger network. To do this, they’ll need a Lucid-approved adapter that costs $220. With it, drivers can add up to 200 miles of range in about an hour. Charging will be done through the Lucid app, using a saved credit card.

Lucid also rolled out a few upgrades to its upcoming 2026 Air models. The Air Touring now has an estimated driving range of 431 miles, about 6% more than before, thanks to a better battery. The Air Grand Touring still offers up to 512 miles on a full charge. Other small improvements include a new air conditioner and massage seats in higher-end models. In addition to these, Lucid plans to roll out hands-free driving and lane change assist later this month.

These updates seem to have boosted confidence in the stock, helping LCID close higher on Tuesday.
