2022 Dodge Charger Jailbreak vs Lucid Air GT Performance // DRAG RACE with CHRIS HARRIS

For me, the biggest thing I have against almost all dodge videos is that none of the cars are running summer tires. On occasion they are, but most of the time they aren't. That can make a big difference. Not on this comparison mind you, but in others absolutely. Granted this was half the price of the Lucid which means I won't likely ever have one unless I wait a decade and try and purchase a used one. I also think the Lucid is ugly. Not for me in the looks department. I'm not a huge fan of the looks of the Charger either, but it looks better than the Lucid imo. Still a very entertaining video. That Lucid is ridiculous on straight line speed. The look of pain on everyone's face when they are launching that thing makes me laugh every time. Best of continued success for the show!

[@Car_Tism]

Y’all made CHRIS HARRIS say: “That’s enough” in the back of the Lucid! I love my 3 pedal gas car, but driving electric performance on daily roads feels like you’re in a UFO. There’s nothing like flying around these roads around gas cars and coming home to charge up for pennies. I can’t imagine needing anything faster for a daily than my Model 3 Performance and the Lucid blows it out of the water. They’re going to have in increase speed limits at some point. My M3P feels planted, safe, confident and controllable cruising at 125 mph on an open highway in a quiet precise way that allows me to fully concentrate rather than feeling on edge with that sweet beautiful screaming exhaust that I both love and makes me sweat over 100. Electric is just precise and simple - these new drivers are really going to have to learn how to handle there speed

[@SoullessPolack]

That's exactly why speed limits should not be increased. For a good driver, I would say going faster is not any more dangerous, as your senses are heightened at speed, you're more aware of your surroundings, etc. But the average person has shown they are not a good driver. I mean, you can simply look around you. Plenty of people are just unintelligent and unaware people; they have both hands on the wheel and are staring straight ahead, yet can't stay in their lane and aren't even going the speed limit. Another huge percentage of people think using their phones while driving is okay. I'm gonna stop before I get angry, but you get my point. If you don't, you're one of those drivers. I've been trying to think why I'm apprehensive about the whole EV thing. It's not the environmental thing, because I do believe once you get over the initial impact of the battery production, over the life of the car the carbon fooprint is reduced long term. The sound thing is true for me, but I can just not buy one, and I don't care what another human purchases as it's their choice. What I feel I'm honing in on is that even with the cheap EVs, people have gobs of power that they didn't use to be able to have. The reason that makes me apprehensive is my previous paragraph. Too many poor drivers, and when you combine that with ridiculous power and speed potential, I feel like it could get quite bad. Now, I'm not set on being right, as even before EVs, people did stupid things with cars. Look at all those people crashing out after leaving cars and coffee. Tons of power and the inability to understand how to feather the power in to avoid spinning out. Hmmm, off on a tangent I went.

And no, a true car enthusiast will NEVER think “I don’t need an engine sound anymore”. And yes, I have driven EV’s, including fast ones, if that’s what you’re thinking. Not Lucid fast, but 650 hp fast, for example (Audi RS e-tron GT).

I really like Chris. He’s a good addition to you guys. If I ever go EV, it will be a Lucid. I like the looks of it over the Tesla and others.

Always a good time when Chris is involved. 👏🏻😂 I do hope people pay attention to the massive price difference. The lucid is over twice the price of the dodge!! Holy crap!?! Also, since when is this ancient Benz still going for over 100g’s cdn?! Sweet baby Jesus. 🤷🏻‍♂️

The price of the Lucid is twice the price of the Dodge...but how much gas ($$$) will this Jailbreak eat in a year?

@@TJDST4 depends on how much you drive it also the battery doesn't last forever. When that big lithium battery goes out you might as well buy another car how expensive they are. You take care if the dodge it'll last generations

You do the same with your gas-powered car, and we'll see which one of us will be fine. Oh, and I only pay about $1.65 to fill it with electricity (while it sits in my garage) which is generated by a nearby wind farm. How much are you paying for a tank of gas?

This has been the best race showcase for the Lucid Air that I've seen so far, by far. I think it's definitely in the Plaid's league as it looks faster than the ones that I've seen pitted against the Plaid thus far. Whatever the case, it's made better and I'd take it just based on that alone. Looks better to me as well,and I actually like the Model S. Unfortunately I don't have enough blood or sperm to donate to be able to afford either. 😕

[@BIGGELATO]

Sometimes it's not about speed, it's about the drive itself! You can floor it all day in a 392, not in a Hellcat. And that Lucid Air is nice, luxurious, checks a lot of boxes, but it's not a driver's car. It's like comparing a 750Li to an M5 Competition. Just different realms. I know it's to show the Lucid Air's straight line performance but, it'll never beat the sound of that Hellcat. Got mad love for Lucid, it's an amazing vehicle, but there's no comparison here. Lol...

[@raydoherty5419]

The lucid is a luxury car, with a 500 mile range and rally fast charging that would be an amazing road trip car, it just happens to be really fast too. Don’t think anyone will cross shop these cars but it made for a cool video

[@BIGGELATO]

@@raydoherty5419 yes 100% agreed

[@dbdz9736]

Not one who likes to cry foul but I would have preferred Chris in a 1000hp tuned ICE car vs the Lucid for a true 1000hp ICE vs EV shoot out or perhaps Chris in an SF90, I know that will not happen at a snap of a finger but I would love that.
