California Highway Patrol Outfits Lucid Air Model

After the recent news that California had outfitted the first Police Cybertruck model, news from Car & Driver notes that California Highway Patrol has acquired and outfitted a Lucid Air model with various lights and equipment.

The long-range EV makes sense as a CHP vehicle due to its ability to do nearly 500 miles on a single charge. Considering the added weight of police equipment, the 430 hp red model would still seem fit for long-range service. 

While the manufacturer has not released a full spec sheet on the police cruiser, many expect the model to still be limited in use considering its new sales price around $71k.
