TORONTO, Dec. 6, 2023 /CNW/ - SiriusXM Canada and Lucid Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: LCID) announced today that SiriusXM's audio streaming entertainment experience is now available to all new and existing Canadian Lucid owners.
Across Canada, SiriusXM is available in the award-winning Lucid Air, the longest-range, fastest-charging electric car on the market*. SiriusXM access will be available as an optional subscription on the entire Lucid Air vehicle lineup, including Lucid Sapphire, Grand Touring, Touring and Pure. In addition, all Lucid Air owners will receive a three-month trial subscription to SiriusXM.
"We are very proud to partner with Lucid and to bring our premium audio entertainment offering to Lucid's extraordinary lineup of vehicles," said Rob Keen, Senior Vice President, Sales & Marketing, SiriusXM Canada. "SiriusXM is the perfect complement to the Lucid luxury driving experience, providing an unrivaled in-vehicle audio experience. We know Lucid drivers will appreciate our unique combination of music, entertainment, sports and more, along with helpful features that make it easier to find the programming they love from across our wide-ranging content lineup."
"We're thrilled to offer Lucid customers the incredible breadth and depth of SiriusXM's audio programming with expertly curated music, entertainment and sports, personalized to fit the vibe of any length road trip," said Michael Bell, Lucid's Senior Vice President of Digital. "All new and existing Lucid Air owners now have access to a three-month trial of SiriusXM as a standard feature, making their audio experience even better."
Designed as a true software-defined vehicle, Lucid Air was engineered from the start to get better over time with future-ready hardware so new features can easily be added. The addition of SiriusXM is just the latest example of how over-the-air software updates enable Lucid Air customers to enhance their experience and meet their needs long after they take delivery.
SiriusXM's music channels are expertly curated, ad-free, and deliver an exceptionally wide array of audio choices for listeners. Covering every genre across many decades, channels feature popular tracks and deep cuts from popular artists, as well as introduce listeners to new and emerging musicians and bands. Artist-branded channels from Hall of Fame and iconic talent feature original content that can't be heard anywhere else. SiriusXM's concept-based channels such as Road Trip Radio and Yacht Rock Radio, or its many activity and mood-based channels, are designed to deliver a more personalized music experience that fits the moment.
Lucid owners enjoying their trial and Lucid owners already subscribing to SiriusXM will also have access to SiriusXM's Pandora Stations feature. Pandora Stations enable drivers to create their own personal channels that play more of what they want, drawing content from SiriusXM's vast music library. This feature gives the user the ability to create their own ad-free music channels based on their favourite artists, and then customize those channels to play even more of what they want to hear.
