Most investors are already aware of the secular growth catalysts underpinning the EV sector. These catalysts provide a bullish backdrop for Lucid, a major competitor to American EV juggernaut Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA). Given how rapidly Tesla’s share price has appreciated, investors appear to be bullish on Lucid’s ability to capture at least a small slice of this market.

As a luxury EV producer, Lucid’s product appears to be what investors like to see. And this week, the stock is gaining momentum ahead of the company’s Oct. 30 release date for its first deliveries.

Those who had pre-ordered the Lucid’s Dream Edition model will be among the initial customers to have a Lucid vehicle delivered. The company has also noted it’s planning a launch event tomorrow.

Let’s dive a bit into what investors may want to know about tomorrow’s event.
