First FX  Prototype Mules Set to Be Shipped to FF’s U.S. Headquarters, Kicking Off the Product
Development and Testing Phase

 

Los Angeles, CA (Nov. 19, 2024) -- Faraday Future Intelligent Electric Inc. (Nasdaq: FFIE) (“FF”, “Faraday Future”, or the “Company”), a California-based global shared intelligent electric mobility ecosystem company, today announced that its first FX prototype mules have arrived at the Company’s China headquarters. The prototype mules’ delivery/shipping route will take it from Beijing to Los Angeles.

 

The shipment of the prototype mules marks the official launch of the development and testing phase for this model. The FX strategy is now accelerating efforts to deliver “twice the performance at half the price” AIEV products to U.S. consumers and advancing toward the goal of becoming the “Toyota of the AIEV era.”

 

“The shipment marks the beginning of the journey where FX and its collaboration partners set sail toward the U.S. AIEV blue ocean market,” said Max Ma, Global CEO of FX. “This will further solidify the foundation for FX to achieve its strategic goal of rolling off its first vehicle by the end of 2025. Next, we will start a series of tests in the U.S. to create an AIEV with an extreme price-experience ratio.”

These forward-looking statements, which include statements regarding FX and the shipment of prototype mules, accelerating development efforts, and delivery goals, are not guarantees of future performance, conditions or results, and involve a number of known and unknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other important factors, many of which are outside the Company’s control, that could cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements.
