What BBN said about it
Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorLucid's new Guinness World Record has nothing to do with range or charging speed.
Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorSixty-one DJs each got eight minutes at the mixing table, just over eight hours in total, all powered by one Lucid Gravity SUV.
Brock Thunderson · Chief MeteorologistPowered through its built-in household outlets. So the SUV is a very expensive extension cord. And I'm told that's lovely.
Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorIt's sharing, Brock.
Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorLucid worked with a Saudi electronic duo called Dish Dash, and sixty-one strangers took turns on one battery without a single fight over the aux cord.
Brock Thunderson · Chief MeteorologistEight minutes each. Imagine being number sixty, watching fifty-nine people play, and then you get your eight minutes.
Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorTheir moment, finally. A spokesperson says it pushes boundaries beyond battery capacity and charging speed.
Brock Thunderson · Chief MeteorologistBoundaries beyond the battery. I've been saying that about the forecast for years, and nobody gave me a plaque.
