On October 16th, Jia Yueting released a video discussing the mission of Faraday X (FX), the second brand of FF.
Jia Yueting stated that the mission of FX is not simply to compete with Tesla, but rather to do things that Tesla has not achieved. As the pioneer of the new energy industry, the United States has actually been completely lagging behind China's development speed in recent years.
How to truly promote the rapid development of the AI EV industry in the United States, I think it may be a new historical opportunity for FF. Many of these audience groups now have only two choices: either buy Tesla or buy plug-in hybrids. And plug-in hybrid is actually a gasoline car, whether in terms of AI, autonomous driving, or overall handling performance, the experience is closer to gasoline cars, and it is difficult to achieve the ultimate experience like pure electric, so users have no choice.
There is a huge gap between $40000 and $60000, which is the gap for extended range, so we are doing both below Tesla prices and within the same price range as Tesla. The three main price ranges we have announced to the public are 20000 to 30000, 30000 to 50000, and 50000 to 80000, which are currently blank areas and blue ocean markets. We are making every effort to enter this market. What kind of value can be generated by fully reacting FF and FX.
