Branden Flasch made this video in July, and he was already impressed with the progress Lucid had made in getting its Casa Grande, AZ, factory ready.
New pictures taken Sept. 7, also by Flasch, demonstrate Lucid is quick at getting things done. Above all, it shows production may be very close.
This is something Peter Rawlinson will probably be able to confirm Sept. 9, when he will present the production version of the Lucid Air. The company has already shown it has the fastest sedan on Earth, with a time of 9.9 on the quarter-mile—just a coincidence with the car’s presentation date. Another impressive landmark for the company is the EPA estimated range of 517 miles.
The video shows the employees’ parking lot was still waiting for asphalt in July. The pictures now taken by Flasch reveal that place is already paved. It even seems to have the parking spots already determined in some photographs.
Regarding the factory, Flasch referred to a lack of walls in the video. The footage shows part of the building at the back, still in need of these walls. The pictures do not present that part of the building, but we would bet it is complete at this point.
