Driving from the downtown area of ​​Los Angeles to the south for about half an hour, you can arrive at the "Gardina", where the Faraday Future ("FF") R&D headquarters is located, using the R&D center of the previous Nissan car. 900 FF employees work here.
On January 6th, local time, Dara Reckhorn, Faraday's vice president of global manufacturing, said in an interview with the Los Angeles R&D headquarters that the FF 91 will be delivered in 2018 and is currently measuring production alternatives, "may be outside the existing factory. Manufactured (the first batch of delivered) FF 91, after the completion of the large factory, moved to the new factory for production."
Faraday's future and LeTV are strategic partnerships. Le Yue Holdings founder Jia Yueting is the main investor in Faraday's future. Jia Yueting previously claimed that he has invested more than 10 billion in the automobile business, and a considerable proportion of it has been invested in the future of Faraday.
Less than 36 hours after the release of FF 91, the booking volume has exceeded 64,000.
On January 3, Faraday released its first production model in Las Vegas in the future, saying it will be delivered in 2018 with a deposit of $5,000. On January 5th, US local time, Faraday announced the booking data in the future. Less than 36 hours after the release of FF 91, the booking volume has exceeded 64,000. According to the deposit of 5,000 US dollars per ticket, Faraday has received 320 million US dollars in the future. About 2,215.8 million yuan) booked.
Due to the fact that its current physical building in Las Vegas has not yet been built, it is worried that it will be completed and delivered on time within two years.
The Faraday Future Factory is located in North Las Vegas, Nevada. The production base covers an area of ​​3.64 square kilometers and has a construction area of ​​nearly 280,000 square meters. Just in mid-December last year, Faraday issued a statement denying the rumors of factory shutdowns, saying that it has successfully completed the first phase, that is, land leveling and other work, is about to enter the second phase of construction.
Reckhorn repeatedly stressed in the interview that the vehicle will be delivered to the user in 2018, but admitted that if the vehicle was produced in the original factory, the time is tight. "The construction time of the big factory is too long, so there is now an alternative, according to sales volume and With the demand to produce, our first cars will be produced in this land or in a factory outside the land, and the final decision will be made in the next few weeks."
According to Reckhorn, the first batch of FF 91 delivered to users is likely to be built in other smaller factories in Las Vegas. After the completion of the 280,000-square-meter large plant, the production will be moved to the new factory. Supply chain and logistics design can also be verified when a temporary factory produces the first delivery vehicle.
Reckhorn said that the prototypes that Faraday exhibited at CES in the future were assembled by a team in a small workshop near the Los Angeles headquarters. "We compared the foundries, but decided to make the first car and control it. quality."
However, Reckhorn did not disclose the location of this smaller factory, but said it will certainly produce FF 91 in Las Vegas, because there is an agreement with the city, "we decided to produce in Las Vegas, we When launching a production car, you need a well-trained employee, and Nevada can help us find such an employee."
Tom Wessner, vice president of global supply chain for Faraday, said that all FF 91 (parts) purchases have been completed, and the suppliers are ready for mass production. The FF 91 will use the same batch of parts and the same in any factory. Batch suppliers cooperate to ensure quality.
Interestingly, Faraday's future executives, including Reckhorn and Wessner, are from Tesla. Wessner said that Tesla's problems were caused by founder Musk. "He doesn't understand the auto industry, but the demands are instead. Obstruction, this is why many Tesla employees come here, hoping to avoid Tesla's mistakes and thus reduce costs."
On the way to the news, you can see the LeTV TV marked “Letv†everywhere. According to the introduction, some LeTV executives and employees here support the future of Faraday. Le Yue founder Jia Yueting once said that Faraday's future and LeEco are strategic partnerships, and Jia Yueting is one of Faraday's future individual investors.
Reckhorn said LeTV will help FF in hardware, software, the Internet, content and the cloud, while Faraday will help LeTV in the future with ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems) and engineering support.
