Check out this custom Lucid Air cleverly designed so 7-foot Shaq can fit

Lucid’s luxury EV just got the Shaq treatment. A Lucid Air was converted into a slick two-door model so that Shaq could fit inside. Check out the custom electric car below.

Standing at 7 feet 1 inch tall, Shaq is much taller than most of us. It’s not easy to find a car you can fit in at that height. Well, not comfortably, at least.

You might remember the Buick LaCrosse ad from 2012, where it looked like the vehicle was actually built around Shaq because he appeared so big.

The big man has moved on from the NBA and is now a DJ known as DJ Diesel. To fit the persona, Shaq needed more than your average vehicle, so he turned to the Lucid Air. However, the electric luxury sedan wouldn’t cut it as a four-door model, so Shaq converted the Lucid Air into a two-door coupe.

Shaq shared the new vehicle on his Instagram Monday with the caption, “When you’re 7″1″, you’ve got to do things your own way.”

The conversion was done by West Coast Customs, known for its custom designs for celebrities like Kylie Jenner and Justin Bieber. The company even created a custom Range Rover “Stormer” for a member of the Dubai royal family.

Most recently, you may have heard about Mark Zuckerberg’s Porsche Cayenne turned mini-van. That was also a West Coast Customs design.

Although sales have been slower than Lucid planned, demand is starting to pick up. The EV maker delivered over 7,100 vehicles through the first six months of 2024, more than the roughly 6,000 delivered in total last year.

Maybe getting the Shaq treatment will help get the word out. Lucid just launched its second EV, the Gravity SUV, as it looks to expand the brand.
