Air Touring
Volume trim of the Air — 620 HP, 414-mile range. 19.2kW onboard charger requires an 80A circuit for full Level 2 speed. Here's what its onboard charger actually needs from your home's electrical panel.
Home (Level 2) charging facts
Pulled straight from the Air Touring's onboard charger rating - not a generic EV number.
- Onboard charger draw
- 19.2 kW
- ~80A at 240V (kW × 1000 ÷ 240)
- Empty-to-full at max Level 2
- 4.8 hrs
- 92 kWh battery ÷ 19.2 kW
- Range added per hour
- ~86 mi/hr
- 19.2 kW × 4.5 mi/kWh efficiency
- DC fast charging
- 300 kW max
- Public chargers only - tapers as the battery fills
Typical full-speed install
80A charger on a 100A circuit
Reaches this car's 19.2 kW ceiling. Whether your panel has room for that circuit depends on everything else already on it - that's the actual assessment.
Connector
CCS
CCS (Combined Charging System) is the most common connector on non-Tesla EVs for both home Level 2 charging and public DC fast charging.
On the Air Touring specifically, that connector carries up to 19.2 kW at home on Level 2 and up to 300 kW on public DC fast hardware.
Charging speed by circuit size
None of these common home circuit sizes reach this car's 19.2 kW onboard ceiling - it can use every amp up to 48A.
| Charger setting | This car actually draws | Range added / hour | 8-hr overnight |
|---|---|---|---|
| 16A | 3.8 kW | ~17 mi | ~136 mi |
| 24A | 5.8 kW | ~26 mi | ~208 mi |
| 32A | 7.7 kW | ~35 mi | ~280 mi |
| 40A | 9.6 kW | ~43 mi | ~344 mi |
| 48A | 11.5 kW | ~52 mi | ~416 mi |
Overnight, at full onboard speed
688 mi / 8 hrs
860 mi across a 10-hour window, at 19.2 kW.
Approximate cost to fill from empty
$11.96
Assumes $0.13/kWh (a national-average estimate, not your local rate) × 92 kWh - about $0.029/mile.
Lucid Air charging questions
How long does it take to charge a 2025–2026 Lucid Air Touring on a Level 2 charger?
About 4.8 hours from empty to full at its 19.2 kW onboard-charger ceiling (92 kWh battery ÷ 19.2 kW).
Times scale with amperage - see the circuit-size table above for other settings.
What amperage does a Lucid Air draw on Level 2?
At its full 19.2 kW rate, the Lucid Air draws about 80A at 240V (kW × 1000 ÷ 240 = amps).
Can a Lucid Air use a 48-amp charger?
Yes, and it'll use the full 48A. A 48A charger delivers ~11.5 kW, which is at or under this car's 19.2 kW ceiling - about 52 mi of range per hour.
How much range does a Lucid Air add per hour on a Level 2 charger?
About 86 miles of range per hour at its 19.2 kW ceiling (19.2 kW × 4.5 mi/kWh efficiency).
How much range does an 8-hour overnight charge add to a Lucid Air?
Roughly 688 miles from an 8-hour overnight charge (86 mi/hr × 8 hours), or about 860 miles across a 10-hour window.
What's the DC fast charging ceiling for a Lucid Air?
Up to 300 kW on a public DC fast charger - well above its 19.2 kW Level 2 (home) ceiling, though DC fast rates taper as the battery fills.
