It’s taken almost six years, but a factory set up in a former tire manufacturing plant in Hanford, California, has started production of its first electric vehicles for delivery to customers.
Faraday Future, founded in 2014 with a goal to compete in the high-end luxury electric vehicle market against the likes of Ferrari and Maybach, unveiled the first production body of its flagship FF 91 Futurist crossover in a ceremony last week at its FF ieFactory on Idaho Avenue, south of Hanford, California.
Company executives rolled the car body — without motors, batteries, wheels, seats and other interior systems and features — out of the paint shop on a large cart to applause from assembled employees inside the factory on March 29.
