Lucid's top engineer, Emad Dlala, has left the company.
The departure comes shortly after Lucid's new permanent CEO took over, and months before the startup is set to launch its first roughly $50,000 EV.
TechCrunch first reported the news on Tuesday.
Lucid Motors' top engineer, Emad Dlala, has left the company, the EV startup confirmed on Wednesday. The move comes days after Lucid's first permanent CEO in over a year, Silvio Napoli, took the reins of the company earlier this month. TechCrunch was first to report the news.
"Emad Dlala has elected to leave the company to pursue other opportunities. We thank Emad for his many contributions over the years and wish him continued success in his future endeavors," Lucid said in a statement. "As previously communicated, Lucid is transforming its organization to accelerate innovation and strengthen execution under CEO Silvio Napoli."
