Lucid motors stock price analysts expect Lucid Motors stock

Analysts expect Lucid Motors stock price could benefit from policy incentives in the EV industry, but warn any delays in rollout would keep the shares under pressure. Investors view the move as a validation of Lucid Group’s tech stack and manufacturing capabilities, especially as competitors like Tesla (TSLA) and Waymo race toward similar goals. With a 2026 model year Lucid Air sedan starting at a price north of $70,000, it's clear that it won't be a mass-market EV. Lucid even offers a fully equipped Sapphire model for $249,000. On the surface, that might seem like a losing proposition for investors, but it's a business model that worked for Tesla. Tesla's idea was to begin to sell a relatively low volume of the Model S luxury sedan and its luxury Model X SUV to show off its EV technology and grow a core following. Lucid Motors stock price is lagging sector averages, with EV peers showing stronger relative strength indices, highlighting the need for operational milestones to attract growth investors.
