Why you need a purpose-built hitch for the Lucid Air
- Lucid Air is an electric luxury sedan with sensitive aerodynamics, underbody packaging, and advanced sensors. A generic hitch can interfere with airflow, reduce range, or obstruct sensors and diffuser elements.
- The Lucid Air is a premium the deserves a premium hitch design. The EcoHitch is designed with a completely concealed cross tube with a receiver that is integrated into the bumper for maximum ground clearance.
- A custom-fit hitch reduces the chance of modification to the vehicle, avoids cutting or drilling when unnecessary, and preserves the vehicle’s appearance when not in use.
Why Torklift’s EcoHitch is the best choice for 2022-2026 Lucid Air owners
- Custom-fit engineering: EcoHitch is designed to match the Lucid Air’s frame geometry and underbody layout. Custom fit means no generic adapters, fewer compromises, and correct clearances for battery and diffuser components.
- Low-profile, hidden design: EcoHitch mounts close to the vehicle’s fascia so the hitch receiver is discreet when not in use. That helps maintain vehicle lines and aerodynamic efficiency.
- Corrosion protection and durability: Rust-free stainless steel receiver and premium Armor Pro Finish to resist corrosion from road salt and moisture. Torklift products are known for long-term durability.
- Clean, bolt-on installation: Where possible EcoHitch uses bolt-on attachment points, keeping installation reversible and preserving factory hardware.
- Accessory compatibility: The EcoHitch supports standard 2-inch receiver accessories such as bike racks, cargo carriers, and light-duty trailers.

IMPORTANT NOTICE:
While EcoHitch® trailer hitches are built with high-strength materials and tested for exceptional weight ratings, your vehicle’s factory towing capacities are the ultimate limit. Always refer to your vehicle’s owner’s manual to determine its maximum towing and tongue weight ratings. No aftermarket hitch or accessory can increase your vehicle’s factory-rated towing capacities.
Using hauling accessories like extensions, cargo trays, bike racks, or other accessories that extend the load out from the trailer hitch, will significantly reduce the tongue weight capacity of your hitch system.
To estimate how your setup will affect tongue weight, we recommend using our Maximum Hitch Weight (Tongue Weight) Estimator before hauling your payload (cargo trays, bike racks, etc).
Disclaimer: It is the user’s responsibility to ensure safe towing practices and to confirm that all loads fall within the limits of the lowest-rated component in the towing system. Torklift is not liable for any damage or injury resulting from the misuse or overloading of towing/hauling equipment.
