Jason recently drove the Lucid Air Sapphire and proclaimed it the best-handling car ever.* *With the possible exception of the Rimac Nevera, which he hasn't slid around.

Or does the 3-motor torque-vectoring, combined with in-house 1000-Hz stability control and perfect software and hardware tuning simply follow its driver's wishes flawlessly? How does this EV compare to cars from the traditionals — like the VW id.4 or the Mercedes EQS, or even the Vinfast?
