FX品牌與產品戰略
2025年1月,FX首款車型——FX Super One僞裝車亮相。這標誌着FX品牌產品陣容的進一步擴大,與此前公佈的FX 5與FX 6概念車形成互補。FX 5與FX 6分別定位於2萬至3萬美元、3萬至5萬美元兩個價格區間,計劃提供增程式與純電等動力版本。公司目標在2025年底前實現首輛車下線,最終進度取決於資金落實及相關合作協議的簽署。

FF 91 2.0項目持續推進,陸續向名人用戶交付,包括2025年1月向企業家及社羣領袖Luke Hans,以及2024年12月向時尚模特兼設計師Suede Brooks。
AI 戰略與創新
公司已於2025年3月10日正式將納斯達克股票代碼更改爲FFAI,並於3月16日舉辦了FF Open AI Day,彰顯公司在覈心AI戰略上的堅定承諾。FF在打造“All AI出行生態系統”方面取得顯著進展,重點推進個性化AI(Personalized AI)及定製化AI(Bespoke AI)計劃。基於大模型架構打造的AI車內交互系統,未來有望應用於FF 91 2.0以及FX車型。
製造與產品優化
製造方面,公司持續提升生產效率、產品質量與量產可行性。2024年,公司使用兩輛自主製造白車身的新車完成車身結構碰撞測試,來驗證自主生產的白車身結構。成功的測試有效驗證了公司的自主製造能力及整車的安全性、耐久性及性能表現。公司的加州漢福德工廠在2024年實現多項關鍵改進:生產週期縮短40%;客戶工藝審覈(CCA)評分提升50%;通過引入過程質量管控環節,質檢頻次提升了200%。上述成就體現出FF始終堅持“以質取勝”的製造理念,確保每一輛FF 91都達到卓越標準。
公司在阿聯酋工廠的推進亦取得重要進展,標誌着FF全球化佈局及未來增長邁出關鍵一步。FF已在拉斯海瑪經濟區(RAKEZ)預留了一處面積達10.8萬平方英尺的場地,並與RAKEZ進行了首次面對面會談,推動設施建設進度,並確保項目落地與當地利益相關方達成一致。此外,公司已完成設備供應商遴選工作,首階段設備採購合同授予阿聯酋本地供應商,並引入項目管理工具及項目章程,確保阿聯酋項目時間表獲得各方認可。
以上舉措爲未來設施打下堅實基礎,將有力支持公司長期增長和全球佈局。同時,公司還持續提升製造效能,開始在漢福德工廠自主生產FF 91 2.0的座椅的汽車座椅,以進一步優化運營、降低成本並提升產品品質。2024年12月,公司推出FF 91 2.0車載系統的新版本軟件,顯著提升車內諮詢娛樂體驗與用戶控制功能,包括導航系統優化、語音控制範圍拓展以及顯示界面的增強。
人事任命
公司做出關鍵人事變動並持續加強管理團隊建設,以支撐整體戰略及FX業務的發展佈局:Tin Mok被任命爲FF阿聯酋負責人,全面統籌該地區業務;Koti Meka出任首席財務官;Aaron Ma擔任EV研發代理負責人;Lei Gu博士被任命爲FX全球EV研發研究院院長;Xiao(Max)Ma被任命爲FX首席執行官;2025年,Jerry Wang被任命爲FF總裁。這些領導者的加入將爲公司注入深厚的行業經驗與戰略眼光,助力公司高效執行各項戰略目標。

Los Angeles, CA (March 27, 2025) -- Faraday Future Intelligent Electric Inc. (Nasdaq: FFAI) ("FF", "Faraday Future", or the "Company"), a California-based global shared intelligent electric mobility ecosystem company, today announced its financial results for its fourth quarter and full year 2024, highlighted by securing two rounds of funding commitments in September and December 2024, a total of more than $70 million, to support its FF and FX strategic developments. FF also made significant progress in FX product development with two prototype mules shipped to the U.S. in November 2024, and the recent change of its ticker symbol to "FFAI" reflecting its focus on AI technology.
During 2024, the Company implemented significant cost reduction measures across its operations, including a substantial decrease in personnel-related costs, professional services expenses, and general expenses such as rent and insurance. These initiatives contributed to a 75% reduction in year-over-year general and administrative expenses compared to 2023, while maintaining operational effectiveness.
RESULTS FOR FOURTH QUARTER 2024
· Net Loss from Operations: $30.3 million, a 55.3% improvement from $67.8 million in Q4 2023.
· Operating Cash Outflow: decreased by 51.3% to $18.4 million, compared to $37.8 million in Q4 2023.

As a result, financial stability improved significantly relative to the end of the first half of 2024.
RESULTS FOR FULL YEAR 2024

· Net Loss from Operations: $149.7 million, a 47.7% reduction from $286.1 million in 2023, reflecting ongoing efforts to control R&D and G&A expenses.
· Operating Cash Outflow: $70.2 million, a 75% reduction compared to $278.2 million in 2023, highlighting FF’s continued focus on cost control and operational efficiency.
· Cost of Revenue: increased by $41.4 million year-over-year, driven by depreciation expenses that were $29.3 million greater than in 2023, as additional equipment was placed into service to enhance production capabilities, particularly in paint and body .
· R&D Expenses: decreased by $106.8 million year-over-year, primarily driven by:
- $53.6 million reduction due to salary and headcount reductions because many R&D personnel were reassigned to production roles.
- $35.2 million reduction in engineering, design, and testing costs.
- $14.9 million gain from the settlement of prior year accrued R&D expenses with Palantir.
· Sales and Marketing Expenses: decreased by $13.6 million year-over-year, primarily due to:
- $7.7 million reduction in compensation expense.
- $5.3 million total reduction in general expenses and advertising expenses.
· General and Administrative Expenses: decreased by $39.7 million year-over-year, primarily driven by:
- $23.2 million reduction in professional service fees.
- $10.7 million reduction in insurance costs, primarily related to directors’ and officers’ insurance.
· Non-Operating Loss: $206.4 million, primarily driven by accounting-related, non-operating and non-cash items:
- $188.3 million valuation true-up related to existing and settled convertible notes and warrants.
- $16.6 million in interest expense.
Overall, FF saw a clear trend of improving financial stability. In both Q3 and Q4 of 2024, financing cash inflows exceeded operating cash outflows. This positive cash flow dynamic, combined with a 75% year-over-year reduction in operating cash burn and meaningful cost reductions across R&D and SG&A, reflects the tangible progress FF has made in aligning cost structure with operational priorities, while positioning it for long-term scalability and financial resilience.

The fourth quarter of 2024 represented continued progress for FF with significant advancements in its dual-brand strategy. New capital raised in 2024 will help fund critical initiatives in 2025, including ongoing production and deliveries of the FF 91 2.0 while simultaneously advancing development of the potential mass-market FX lineup. This approach strengthens FF's position in the premium AIEV segment while accelerating FF's potential expansion into the broader consumer market through its FX brand.
In 2024, FF saw significant progress in strengthening its financial position, which has been critical to advancing FF’s strategic goals. On September 4, 2024, Nasdaq officially confirmed that FF had regained compliance with its bid price requirement in Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) and the periodic filing requirement in Listing Rule 5250(c)(1). This achievement followed a series of strategic actions to address previously identified deficiencies. Restoring compliance reflects the resilience and determination of our team, along with our unwavering commitment to transparency and strong governance. It also strengthens investor confidence in our ability to deliver on our long-term strategic vision.
FX BRAND DEVELOPMENT AND PRODUCT STRATEGY
FF unveiled the FX Super One concept in January 2025, an innovative first-class AI-MPV, expanding a potential product lineup alongside the previously announced FX 5 and FX 6 concept models. Targeting distinct price segments, the FX 5 (target base price of $20,000-$30,000) and FX 6 (target base price of $30,000-$50,000) could feature two dual powertrain options: range-extended AIEV and battery-electric AIEV. With aggressive development timelines, FX aims to have one of these models roll off the line by the end of 2025, contingent on securing appropriate funding and finalizing necessary agreements.
The Company has achieved significant milestones in FX product development, with two Super One camouflaged prototype mules shipped to the U.S. in November 2024, marking the commencement of comprehensive development and testing operations on U.S. soil. These prototype mules will undergo rigorous validation across multiple systems, including ADAS capabilities, autonomous driving functions, propulsion performance, intelligent cabin features, and holistic user experience evaluation.
The FX brand strategy aims to seize what the Company has identified as "four blue ocean markets" in the U.S. AIEV market: range-extended vehicles, intelligent vehicles defined as mobile living spaces, AIEV’s priced between $20,000 to $40,000, and luxury AI-MPVs.
STRATEGIC RELATIONSHIPS AND COMMERCIAL MILESTONES
Earlier in the fourth quarter of 2024, the Company's wholly owned subsidiary, Faraday X (FX), signed agreements with top original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) relating to two planned products. These collaborations aim to jointly advance plans for the development, testing, regulatory compliance, supply chain, and production planning of two potential models.
FF entered into a strategic licensing agreement with Grow Fandor, an IP commercialization company. As FF's exclusive licensee for ecosystem products, Grow Fandor will manage the design, development, sales, and operations for certain ecosystem products bearing the FF and FX brands. This collaboration represents a potential new growth driver without requiring FF to contribute any resources for development.
The FF 91 2.0 program demonstrated continued momentum with successful deliveries to high-profile customers, including entrepreneur and community leader Luke Hans in January 2025, and influential fashion model and designer Suede Brooks in December 2024.
AI STRATEGY AND INNOVATION
FF changed its Nasdaq ticker symbol to "FFAI" on March 10, 2025, and hosted an "FF Open AI Day" on March 16, 2025, reflecting the Company's unwavering commitment to its core AI strategy. The Company is making significant progress in developing its All-AI Mobility Ecosystem, including Personalized AI and Bespoke AI initiatives. The AI-driven in-vehicle interaction system, built on large-model architecture, could be integrated into the FF 91 2.0 and into potential FX models.
MANUFACTURING AND PRODUCT IMPROVEMENTS
In manufacturing, the Company made significant strides in improving efficiency, quality, and scalability. In 2024, FF used two newly manufactured vehicles for crash tests to validate its self-produced body-in-white. The successful testing validated FF’s self-manufacturing ability and helped to ensure the safety, durability, and performance of FF’s vehicles. The Company’s Hanford, CA factory made several key improvements in 2024, including: reduced production cycle time by 40%; improved Customer Craftsmanship Audit (CCA) scores by 50%; and enhanced quality control with in-process quality gates, increasing quality checks by 200% times. These advancements reflect FF’s unwavering focus on quality over quantity, ensuring that every FF 91 meets the highest standards of excellence.
UAE Factory Progress was another critical milestone in 2024, as FF expands its footprint and prepares for potential future growth. FF reserved a 108,000 sq. ft. facility in the Ras Al Khaimah Economic Zone (RAKEZ), marking a significant step in our international strategy and also held the first of multiple face-to-face meetings with RAKEZ to advance the completion of the facility, ensuring alignment with local stakeholders. FF has also completed the equipment supplier selection phase, awarded Phase 1 equipment procurement to a UAE-based supplier, and introduced program management tools and a project charter, securing stakeholder approval for the estimated UAE program schedule.
These steps lay the foundation for a facility that could support our long-term growth and global ambitions. The Company continued to improve manufacturing efficiency by announcing plans to insource the manufacturing of its FF 91 2.0 vehicle seats at its Hanford, CA factory. This initiative represents FF's ongoing efforts to optimize operations, reduce costs, and improve product quality. In December 2024, FF released new in-car software updates for the FF 91, enhancing both the in-vehicle infotainment experience and user-focused control features, including improved navigation, expanded voice controls, and enhanced display interfaces.
LEADERSHIP APPOINTMENTS
The Company has also made key personnel appointments and strengthened the leadership team to drive the Company and the FX strategy: Tin Mok was appointed as Head of FF UAE, overseeing our operations in the region; Koti Meka was named Chief Financial Officer; Aaron Ma became Acting Head of EV R&D; Dr. Lei Gu was named as President of the FX Global EV R&D Center; Xiao (Max) Ma was named as CEO of FX; and in 2025, Jerry Wang was named as President of FF. These leaders bring deep expertise and vision to their roles, supporting FF’s execution of its strategies with precision and innovation.
2025 OUTLOOKOVERALL:

Looking ahead to the remainder of 2025, the Company’s focus remains on delivering high-performance, intelligent electric vehicles of both FF and FX brands, while strengthening manufacturing capabilities, advancing technology and AI initiatives, and enhancing financial stability. As FF looks to the future, the Company’s focus is clear. First, the Company plans for the first FX vehicle to roll off the line by the end of 2025 and start taking refundable prepaid orders from Q2 2025. With the FX strategy, the Company expects to make high-performance, technology and AI equipped vehicles more accessible and affordable. In the meantime, the Company will continue to deliver the FF 91 2.0 to serve the newest spire users and co-creators.
As global trade dynamics continue to evolve, including the recent announced U.S. automotive tariff, FX’s flexible and forward-driven model positions the Company to respond swiftly to regulatory changes while optimizing cost efficiency and supply chain agility.
FF has also committed to initiate AI Hybrid Extended-Range Electric Powertrain development which could be applied to potential FX models pre-production. The Company recently announced the establishment of Future AIHER AI Hybrid Extended-Range Electric Powertrain Systems Inc. (“Future AIHER”). This newly formed wholly owned indirect subsidiary of FF is dedicated to the design and development of AI-driven range extender systems and solutions for Extended Range Electric Vehicles (EREVs).
Additionally, FF is focused on optimizing funding costs—ensuring the Company secures the capital it needs without excessive dilution. FF is also committed to maintaining Nasdaq compliance without a reverse stock split.
The completion of the Company’s first-generation smart cabin, powered by AI Agent technology, could be fully deployed in the FF 91 and prepared for integration into its potential FX series models, by the end of 2025.
FF is taking a forward-looking approach to self-driving technology, focusing on: preliminary research into end-to-end autonomous driving using large-scale AI models; and defining the autonomous driving technology roadmap for the FX series and next-generation models.
In summary, 2025 will be a pivotal year for FF. With a strong focus on driving technological innovation, and maintaining financial discipline, the Company is positioning itself for long-term growth and success in the EV market. And above all, fighting to enhance stockholder value for both institutional and retail investors.
