By GlobalDataThe FX Super One is expected to launch as a pure electric vehicle, with a super AI hybrid extended range (AIHER) electric powertrain option to follow.
This innovative AIHER system is designed to excel in cold climates like those on the US East Coast, offering a superior alternative to conventional hybrid systems.
Slated for production by the end of 2025, the FX Super One is positioned as an affordable mass-market EV. It promises a luxurious interior, advanced technology, and a focus on passenger comfort.
The electric powertrain will deliver a smooth ride with the added benefits of fuel efficiency and reduced emissions.
The unveiling of the FX Super One is planned for June 2025, with paid reservations expected to commence thereafter.
Faraday Future founder and co-global CEO YT Jia said: “Securing our first B2B reservation is a clear indication that we’re addressing an unmet need in today’s EV market. The early excitement around the FX brand underscores the innovation and forward-thinking design we’re bringing to the market. As we advance toward our long-term goals, we’re energised by this momentum and look forward to seeing the FX on roads across the US very soon. We will work tirelessly to achieve our goal of the first vehicle rollout by the end of this year.”
Faraday Future is also progressing in the development of its second and third FX models, targeting “four blue ocean markets” in the US AIEV market, which includes range-extended and intelligent vehicles, as well as affordable AIEVs priced between $20,000 to $40,000.
