Lucid Motors Inc (NASDAQ:LCID) is revving up the market with a technical milestone and high-octane news.

This pattern is often seen as a sign of strong upward momentum and for Lucid, it's coming at an opportune moment.

Armored Excellence: The Lucid Air Sapphire Vs. Tesla

With a staggering 1,234 horsepower and a top speed of 205 mph, it's not just fast but fortified.

Lucid Expanding Horizons In Saudi Arabia

Meanwhile, Lucid is also expanding its footprint in Saudi Arabia.

COO Marc Winterhoff has highlighted the company's plans to bolster customer service centers and mobile maintenance options in the Kingdom.

This move aligns with Saudi Arabia's aggressive push toward 30% EVs by 2030 and an expansion of high-speed charging infrastructure.

Lucid is also set to receive up to $1.5 billion from Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund. The proceeds will help support the launch of its first SUV.

Despite a challenging year, this financial boost and the recent technical breakout might signal a strong future for Lucid Motors.
