Lucid’s Cosmos looks close in size to the Tesla Model Y, but with a lower, sleeker body.
Cosmos will be Lucid’s cheapest model yet, with a promised starting price below $50,000.
Lucid hasn’t confirmed RWD or AWD, but efficiency and fast charging should be its big selling points.
Lucid needs a more affordable model in its lineup to even think about turning a profit. Its answer is the midsize Cosmos crossover, which will rival the Tesla Model Y and the upcoming Rivian R2. The company has so far only teased its third model, but a photo showing a prototype next to a Tesla Model Y is our best look yet.
The camouflaged Cosmos prototype was spotted by X user @john61640 near the Lucid factory in Casa Grande, Arizona. The photo not only gives us the best look yet at the Cosmos’ production body but also lets us compare its size to the white Model Y captured alongside it.
