For the uninitiated, this is the model Lucid, Nuro, and Uber are building their upcoming robotaxis on. They plan to deploy 20,000 Gravitys but the MSRP is nearly $100,000! I still have a lot of questions about the business model here as I am not convinced there will be that much demand for a high end AV option (Waymo’s fleet is only 2,000 right now), especially since the rest of the industry is trending towards cheaper vehicles (Zeekr, Ioniq 5, etc).
But I have to admit the vehicle is growing on me. At first, it reminded me of a mini-van, and still does a bit, but it looks sleek and roomy. Other than the cost, a great UberX / UberXL type car.
