Lucid Motors' David Moseley: EV or ICE, “It is all physics”

As Director, Powertrain, CAE Crash & Safety for electric-vehicle startup Lucid Motors, David Moseley may hold one of the most intriguing-and possibly even most-envied-jobs in the auto industry. Leading up to his SAE WCX17 Leadership Summit panel discussion, “How, What and if You Will Drive in the Next Decade” (9 a.m. April 6), Moseley discussed the not-really-different aspects of EV and internal-combustion engineering, why a powertrain's still just a powertrain-and why he ponied up his own money for a deposit on Lucid's Air electric luxury sedan.

Should the auto industry step away from the term “powertrain” and shift to “propulsion” as the march toward electrification continues?
