Faraday Future has finally unveiled, after time immemorial, the version of its first model planned for series production. Production of the mythological FF 91 is expected to begin in Hanford, California in the third quarter of 2022. The conditional is used because this company has experienced several very particular phases in its history, with a capital that is never too solid; therefore we will await the final assembly of the first electric cars to be able to really say that this time Faraday Future is serious.
Be that as it may, some progress has been made this time and it is black and white: the first pre-production vehicle was built at the Hanford plant for final technical validation and will now continue the homologation processes. “The construction of the first vehicle at the Hanford plant is an important step towards the start of production in the third quarter. This iteration is the closest to the FF 91 production model we’ve seen to date“Said Matt Tall, vice president of manufacturing at Faraday Future, according to Electrive.
The design is interesting, in the sense that it is not a car that falls within the classic canons. It has the air of a modern minivan, with a very short bonnet and a futuristic light signature. There is no particular information on the technology inside the car.
Presented for the first time at CES 2017, the FF 91 prototype did not have an easy time. The company was forced to cut its ambitious plans shortly after removing the first veils, and has been on the verge of bankruptcy several times. In fact, we recall that the production of this car was originally scheduled for 2018. In September 2019, the former BMW manager and boss of Byton, Carsten Breitfeld, took on the position of CEO and gradually led the company to recover ground, even in the midst of the Covid pandemic. If the promises for 2022 are kept, Faraday Future will be able to return to being considered a real car manufacturer.
