Lucid Air Sapphire electric sedan covers a 1/4 mile in record time

The Lucid Air Sapphire is built to give a Tesla Model S Plaid a run for its money. In a recent video posted by DragTimes, the electric sedan can be seen sprinting across the 1/4 mile in record time.

The Lucid Air Sapphire completes the quarter mile in 8.930 seconds, which makes it the fastest production sedan in the world. Of course, the dragstrip was fully prepped, and by the time it reached the end of the run, it was travelling at 154 mph.

The Lucid Air EV also managed to clock a rather brisk 0-60 mph time. The instant torque and superior grip from the prepped surface allowed the sedan to reach 60 mph from a standstill in just 1.77 seconds.

Brooks, who was at the wheel of the car, was subjected to 1.5 G of acceleration, pushing him back into his seat.
