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.

Deezer Says AI Tracks Now Make Up 44% Of Uploads
The streamer says nearly 75,000 AI-made songs now hit its platform each day, even as those tracks account for just 1% to 3% of plays.
AI-generated music is becoming a real headache for music platforms, according to Deezer. The streaming service says it now receives nearly 75,000 AI-made tracks a day, equal to about 44% of all daily uploads to the platform.
The figure is up sharply from 10,000 daily AI uploads when Deezer launched its detection tool back in January 2025. The jump shows how quickly products such as Suno and Udio have made song creation cheap, fast, and easy to scale.
Despite the volume, Deezer says AI tracks still only account for 1% to 3% of total streams. The music gets few human listeners, but upload pressure is rising. The company says it is also seeing more “fraudulent” submissions.
Its response so far has been practical. Deezer has removed AI-generated songs from recommendation systems, demonetized them, and stopped storing high-resolution versions of those files.
The company also says it’s the only streaming platform currently tagging AI-generated tracks at scale, using that claim to position its moderation tools as a wider industry model.
“AI-generated music is now far from a marginal phenomenon and as daily deliveries keep increasing, we hope the whole music ecosystem will join us in taking action to help safeguard artist’s rights and promote transparency for fans,” CEO Alexis Lanternier said in a blog post.
Deezer has started licensing the detection technology to other companies, turning an internal control system into a commercial product. It says the tool can already identify music created with Suno and Udio, and can be extended to other generators if training data is available.

The company is also working on detection methods that would not require training datasets, a harder technical step that could widen coverage as new music models appear.
Rivals are taking mixed approaches. Spotify has rolled out policies aimed at curbing AI music. Apple Music is asking artists and labels to disclose AI-made tracks. Qobuz has begun automated labeling, while Bandcamp has banned AI music outright.
For now, Deezer’s numbers suggest the real issue is not listener demand. It’s supply.
