Electric vehicle startup Lucid Motors will open a showroom at Tysons Corner Center in Virginia on Saturday.

It’s the automaker’s 11th showroom to open.

Newark, California-based Lucid, founded in 2007, delivered the first of its electric vehicles to customers Oct. 30. It will initially produce just 520 Lucid Air models, and they are all reserved.

At the Tysons showroom, called Lucid Studio, potential buyers can review options for the Lucid Air lineup.

They include the following:

  • Lucid Air Pure that sells for $77,400;
  • Lucid Air Air Touring, which starts at $95,000;
  • Lucid Air Grand Touring, which starts at $139,000.

All of the vehicles are eligible for the $7,500 federal EV tax credit.

Touring versions are expected to begin delivery in 2022. The company has an estimated 13,000 orders for the Air, according to CNBC.

Lucid says its EVs have more than 500 miles of EPA-estimated range. Its cars are produced at a new factory in Casa Grande, Arizona, outside of Phoenix.

Lucid also offers a virtual reality experience that combines the physical showroom and the ability to virtually interact with a car from home while speaking with a Lucid representative.

Oil prices slip and Asian shares are mostly lower as investors sell chipmaker stocks

HONG KONG (AP) — Oil prices fell Wednesday and Asian shares were mostly trading lower as South Korea’s Kospi extended its losses after falling more than 16% over the past two days. Crude prices remain volatile after the U.S. said early Thursday it had conducted a “heavy wave” of strikes against Iran, responding to an attack on a U.S. base. U.S. futures edged higher after losses on Wall Street. In South Korea, recent drops in its benchmark Kospi, a big beneficiary of the global boom in artificial intelligence, have been seen by some analysts as a reflection of broader doubts about massive investments by technology giants in expanding capacity for AI.
