在2014年，北汽入股该公司，并成为其第一大股东。未来北汽将进行整车的代工和生产，而Atieva则负责提供核心技术。此前，还发布了概念车Lucid Vision的官图。
Another large shareholder in Atieva is China’s LeTV, which cooperates with BAIC in making electric ‘connected’ cars in China. LeTV’s is also backing Faraday Future, a still somewhat mysterious company that has announced a one-billion dollar factory in Nevada and an electric concept car in January.
Faraday is backed by Chinese billionaire Jia Yeuting, owner of LeTV, a fabulously successful enterprise known as “the Chinese Netflix.” Now, China’s state-owned auto company BAIC says its Beijing Electric Car Company division has bought a majority interest in Atieva, the San Francisco–based operation that says, “We’re redefining what a car can be by building an iconic new vehicle from the ground up. We’re a car company, not a design house. And we’re definitely not a traditional automaker.”

Lucid Motors’ co-founder is Sam Weng, an entrepreneur previously focused on battery systems. Menlo Park, California-based Lucid Motors does not appear “Chinese” on the surface, with most of its senior management from the U.S. and all of its operations in North America. But its disclosed investors are mainly from China, including China’s LeEco, Tsing Capital, China Environmental Fund and Jafco Life Science. Lucid was founded in 2007 by an entrepreneur named Sam Weng, who is fluent in Japanese, Chinese and English, with two other partners to focus on developing battery systems for EVs. In 2014, the team decided to build… Read more »

续航640+1000匹马力，2.5秒破百！它不仅蔑视特斯拉，还要从BBA手里抢市场
和国内新势力一样，美国的新势力造车也非常火热，加州电动汽车初创公司 Lucid Motors 正是这股潮流中的一员。该公司于2007年在美国加利福尼亚州成立，公司300多名员工都是之前在马自达，特斯拉以及其他汽车工业公司的员工。
Lucid Motors在2016年11月29日宣布将于耗子7亿美元在美国亚利桑那州的Casa Grande建设拥有2000多人的工厂，该城市也是曾经特斯拉Giga Factory的选址之一。
2016年12月，Lucid Motors 发布了旗下首款量产车型 Air，配备100 千瓦时的电池组提供动力，其最大功率达到了 1013 马力，百公里速度仅需 2.5 秒，续航最大可达643Km。
有趣的是，虽然市场上有许多汽车行业和媒体都拿Lucid Motors的产品于特斯拉进行对比和分析，但是Lucid Motors官方发言人却表示：Lucid Air车型的竞争对手根本就不是特斯拉Model S，而是奔驰E级与S级轿车。Air的豪华程度远远超越了Model S。
Power, the motor maximum power to 660kW, 100 km acceleration less than 3 seconds, the maximum mileage will reach 482km.
日前，海外有媒体曝光了一张Atieva公司旗下电动车谍照，新车或将命名为Lucid。该公司由谢家鹏在2009年创立，此人也是特斯拉创始人之一。致力于研究、开发和生产电动汽车核心动力系统。
动力方面，电机最大功率达到660kW，百公里加速不足3秒，最大续航里程将达到482km。

Atieva: Former Tesla Model S Chief Engineer is bringing a new all-electric luxury sedan to market Last year, we reported on Atieva, an electric vehicle startup founded by Bernard Tse, a former Tesla Vice President and board member. Tse was on Tesla’s board from 2003 to 2007 and he headed Tesla’s short-lived energy division during his last year at the company – long before it relaunched a new and improved ‘Tesla Energy’ division in 2015. Tse resigned from the board to head the ‘Tesla Energy Group’, but left not long after Martin Eberhard, then Tesla’s CEO and longtime friend of… Read more »
