Faraday Future Now Planning Entire Vehicle Lineup

Despite encountering numerous hurdles that led many to believe the company was dead in the water, Faraday Future still exists and is now plotting an entire vehicle lineup. This includes the FX Super One, which is supposed to have its private launch event later this month. But that’s just kicking things off, as the brand allegedly has prototypes for numerous models ready to go.

The FX Super One is a modestly sized multi-purpose vehicle (MPV) that the company has said utilizes artificial intelligence. It’s the first model the company plans to launch since the troubled FF91 (pictured above) appeared in 2017. Like that model, the FX Super One is supposed to be entirely electric. However, the company has said it’s likewise considering a range-extended battery hybrid options.

Faraday Future CEO Jia Yueting shared some additional information about the model during a recent shareholder presentation, adding that FF was actually plotting a slew of new products. While the FF91 flagship is still in limited production, the company believes that the FX Super One (pictured in low-resolution below) could have broader commercial applications and plans on shopping it to fleet clients before offering it to the public.

The company stated that the model would embrace as much technology as possible, with a focus on versatility, luxury, and competitive pricing. FX Super One models are supposed to yield meaningful AI integration and a lounge-like interior with the ability to convert the space for any given task. Faraday plans on previewing the FX Super One to shareholders during a private event to be held on June 29th.

The shindig is supposed to cater to “FF stockholders and investors; B2B sales partners and prospects; global supply chain partners; media, influencers and KOLs; co-creation officers and celebrities.” A public event will follow on July 17th.

In both cases, attendees will be there to experience the “Super One Online Global Product Launch.” But there will reportedly be opportunities to examine prototype versions of the FX 6 and FX 4.

FX models are supposed to be targeting higher volumes and lower MSRPs than the extravagantly prided FF91. The FX 4 is supposed to rival vehicles like the Toyota RAV4 and (presumably) Tesla Model Y since it’s presumed to be entirely electric. Meanwhile, the FX 6 is said to be a large family vehicle and the FX 5 is presumed to be a midsize crossover.

Faraday suggested that a reasonable starting price for the above vehicles would range between $20,000 and $50,000. That’s a considerable drop from the $300,000 FF91. But it’s also speculative and doesn’t account for options or any potential trims delivering more useful ranges. We’ll have to see what the company is offering before we can decide whether the above prices are a solid value.

We know precious little about the models, with the FX 4 being the only one that Faraday Future has revealed any photos of (see the below teaser). The light bar resembles the styling of the FF91 and the smaller model will allegedly utilize a decent amount of its technology. FF said it plans on accepting pre-orders of the FX 4 once the model has had its formal debut this fall. Until then, the company wants to prioritize the Super One MPV.

This likely hinges on it receiving enough investments, however. Even though FF has said it managed to secure significant funding within the last year, it continues operating at a loss. The company reported a net loss of $355.8 million for 2024. But this isn’t all that surprising considering that Faraday has only managed to sell or lease a handful of FF91s since the model came into being. The assumption is that the FX models will be the units that help the brand scale up and eventually become profitable.

While we’re sympathetic to automotive startups, which have to overcome massive regulatory hurdles and suffocating competition from the legacy brands, a significant number have been faulted with financial malfeasance. This includes Faraday Future. Questions about where exactly its financial backing stemmed arose from the moment it came into existence. It wasn’t long until the company was being accused of misrepresenting reservation numbers for the FF91, lying about Jia’s true role in the company, and defaulting on payments to numerous contractors.

Despite this, and failing to produce a commercially viable automobile within the targeted time frame, Faraday Future has managed to stick around. It has even released numerous statements saying that it has been internally addressing its own corporate culture while reviving vehicle development.

Meanwhile, FF announced in May that it has a new zero-tollerance policy on any “potential illegal short selling and the spread of knowingly false and misleading information on social media targeting the company.” Faraday has stated that its legal team will absolutely consider taking legal actions against anyone sharing “deliberately false and misleading information” about the brand and the same apparently goes for alleged short sellers. The above was said to help protect the interest of Faraday Future stockholders.

We’re honestly not sure what to expect from the brand moving forward. But it will be interesting to see how the launch events of the FX Super One and FX 4 are received by the public.
