Lucid Air EVs to Access Tesla Superchargers—But at Slower Speeds

Lucid Air and Tesla Supercharger Compatibility: What You Need to Know Lucid Air drivers will finally gain access to Tesla’s Supercharger network across North America starting July 31, 2025 , marking a long-awaited milestone for electric vehicle (EV) compatibility. This update comes nearly two years after Lucid and Tesla first reached an agreement to bring interoperability between their charging ecosystems. However, there’s a key limitation Lucid drivers should be aware of: Lucid Air models will charge significantly slower than Tesla vehicles at these stations. With a special $220 adapter, all Lucid Air sedans—regardless of model year—can plug into Tesla’s V3 (and above) Superchargers, but charging speeds will max out at just 50 kW , far below the 250 kW peak that Tesla vehicles enjoy.

That technical discrepancy means Lucid…
