Lucid Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: LCID), renowned for its cutting-edge electric vehicles, has announced a groundbreaking collaboration with NVIDIA (NASDAQ: NVDA) to deliver one of the world's first consumer-owned Level 4 autonomous vehicles. By integrating NVIDIA DRIVE AGX Thor into its future midsize lineup, Lucid aims to achieve true “eyes-off, hands-off, mind-off” driving capabilities, setting a new standard for autonomous mobility.

Key Highlights:

• Level 4 Autonomy: Lucid plans to pioneer consumer-owned Level 4 autonomous vehicles, leveraging NVIDIA DRIVE AV technology for advanced “mind-off” driving.
• ADAS Roadmap: The journey begins with Level 2++ (eyes-on, point-to-point driving) for the Lucid Gravity SUV and upcoming midsize vehicles, progressing to full Level 4 autonomy.
• NVIDIA DRIVE AGX Thor: Lucid will integrate two of these advanced AI computing platforms, featuring centralized architecture and redundant processors, to unify all automated driving functions.
• Enhanced Manufacturing: Lucid is adopting NVIDIA's Industrial AI platform and Omniverse to optimize manufacturing processes, reduce costs, and accelerate delivery through intelligent robotics and digital twin technology.

Marc Winterhoff, Interim CEO of Lucid, emphasized the company's commitment to innovation:
“Our vision is clear: to build the best vehicles on the market. By combining cutting-edge AI with Lucid's engineering excellence, we're delivering the smartest and safest autonomous vehicles on the road. Partnering with NVIDIA, we're proud to lead the global quest for autonomous mobility.”

Jensen Huang, founder and CEO of NVIDIA, added:
“As vehicles evolve into software-defined supercomputers on wheels, a new opportunity emerges -- to reimagine mobility with intelligence at every turn. Together with Lucid, we're accelerating the future of autonomous, AI-powered transportation.”

Lucid's journey toward autonomy began with its proprietary DreamDrive Pro system, launched with the Lucid Air in 2021. Recent updates have introduced hands-free driving and lane-change capabilities. Now, with NVIDIA DRIVE AV, Lucid is advancing toward Level 4 autonomy, utilizing a multi-sensor suite of cameras, radar, and lidar for enhanced safety and performance.

Beyond vehicles, Lucid is transforming its manufacturing processes with NVIDIA's Industrial AI platform. By implementing predictive analytics, intelligent robotics, and real-time optimization, Lucid aims to achieve:

• Reconfigurable production lines
• Enhanced quality control
• Accelerated delivery timelines

Through digital twin technology, Lucid can simulate and validate factory layouts, optimize robot path planning, and improve safety, all while reducing costs and scaling operations. Lucid's partnership with NVIDIA represents a pivotal moment in the evolution of electric vehicles and intelligent manufacturing. By combining luxury, performance, and autonomy, Lucid is delivering a driving experience that is not only exhilarating but effortless.
