Lucid Motors Launches Gravity Grand Touring In The UAE
The 828-HP SUV is making its debut in one of the Middle East’s most competitive luxury car markets.
Lucid Motors has launched the Gravity Grand Touring in the United Arab Emirates, bringing its first SUV to one of the Middle East’s most competitive luxury car markets. Orders are open through the Lucid Studio in Dubai and the company’s local website.
The all-wheel-drive Gravity Grand Touring delivers 828 horsepower and a projected range of more than 700 kilometers. Prices start at AED 435,855. Buyers can choose five or seven-seat layouts and several interior themes crafted from sustainable materials.

“The arrival of the Lucid Gravity Grand Touring in the UAE marks a significant milestone in our commitment to bringing world-class electric mobility to the region,” said Faisal Sultan, President of Lucid Middle East. “With this groundbreaking SUV, we’re expanding our product offering and providing more choice to customers who demand luxury, performance, and sustainability in one package”.
The Gravity builds on the same engineering principles that shaped Lucid’s Air sedan, combining a large interior with a compact footprint. Its structure allows the space of a full-size SUV without the bulk. The car reaches 100 km/h in 3.5 seconds and is expected to exceed 700 km on a single charge, pending official WLTP certification.

Buyers can select from six exterior colors and three wheel sizes, from 20 to 23 inches. Interior options draw from California’s landscapes — Mojave, Yosemite, Tahoe, Ojai, and Santa Monica — mixing bio-based fabrics, wood veneers, and premium leather.
Lucid opened its Dubai studio in 2022 and views the UAE as a key growth market. The country’s investment in charging infrastructure and its Net Zero 2050 strategy have drawn major EV makers to test demand for premium electric models.
With the Gravity, Lucid signals its intent to compete not just on technology but on design and finish — a full-size electric SUV built for distance, speed, and comfort in equal measure.

New Disney+ Streaming App Has Officially Launched In The UAE
The app’s recommendations now factor in what’s popular in the UAE, and a dedicated Junior Mode gives kids their own corner of Disney+.
A new Disney+ app has officially launched in the UAE, and subscribers can now keep watching their favorite titles when they travel. Disney+ says access extends across supported markets in Europe, the United States and beyond.
The app is built around a dynamic homepage and simpler navigation, with recommendations drawn from each customer’s viewing habits and what’s popular in the UAE. Content from Hulu and ESPN is now easier to find alongside Disney+’s own library, the company says. Audio and subtitles come in up to 25 languages, and supported devices get high-quality video and sound.
For families, the app includes Junior Mode, a dedicated, simplified version of Disney+ for younger viewers, built around age-appropriate shows and movies. It sits alongside existing controls such as PIN-protected profiles, customizable content ratings and account notifications when a profile is changed.
The catalog still spans Disney, Pixar, Marvel, Star Wars, National Geographic, Hulu and FX. Returning series include Season 8 of “The Kardashians,” Season 23 of “Grey’s Anatomy” and Season 38 of “The Simpsons”. Also on the service are the second season of International Emmy and BAFTA Award-winning series “Rivals,” comedy “Only Murders in the Building,” Walt Disney Animation Studios’ “Zootropolis 2” and 20th Century Studios’ “Send Help”.

Marvel Television’s “VisionQuest” is on the way, and Disney’s live-action “Moana” is due later this autumn. Beyond Hollywood, the Turkish title “Halef” is coming to the platform alongside a lineup of Korean entertainment: Korean-Japanese romantic comedy “Merry Berry Love” is streaming now, and “The Remarried Empress” arrives November 4.
Existing subscribers will be prompted to download the new app and sign in with their current credentials, with on-screen steps covering account confirmation and profile setup. Subscriptions start at AED 49.99 per month and can be canceled at any time.
For UAE subscribers planning to travel, the update will likely be well received, but Disney has left one question open. It confirms Europe and the United States as supported markets but doesn’t yet say which others fall under and beyond.
