It is understood that FF 91 announced that it will start booking on July 22, with a priority reservation amount of 50,000 yuan. Although the exact price of the "futurist Alliance" version of FF 91 has not been officially announced, it has been reported that the "futurist Alliance version" of FF 91 sells for $280000 in the United States and about 2.8 million yuan in China.

On the evening of July 22, Faraday was officially listed on NASDAQ in the future under the symbol "FFIE". The day's offering price was $13.78 / ADS, opening at $16.80, up 22% from the offering price, with a total market capitalization of $5.4 billion. FF Global CEO Bi Fukang said at the listing site that the merger ensures that FF will deliver a futuristic version of FF 91 on time and with high quality within 12 months. Bi Fukang also said that FF 91 has entered the pre-production stage and will be limited to 300 units (Futurist Alliance version) worldwide, and only a small number of selected users are eligible to be invited to be the first users. It is understood that the first batch of invited car owners will be given three user privileges: Futurist Alliance members, spire club members, and exclusive privileges for the next generation product upgrade program. In addition, FF also launched a futuristic version of FF 91 with a priority booking amount of 20,000 RMB. The FF91 is the first mass-produced model of Faraday in the future, with a maximum power of 1050Ps and an acceleration of no more than 2.4 seconds per hundred kilometers. The new car is equipped with a power battery pack co-produced by Faraday Future and LG, with a battery capacity of 130k and a maximum mileage of 700km.

Jia Yueting said in an interview with the media outside the NASDAQ that the listing of FF is a new starting point, solves the company's biggest funding problem, and then will go all out to achieve the goal of mass production and delivery within 12 months. "at this stage, the goal is to deliver the car to top users around the world in a timely and high quality manner, subverting traditional ultra-luxury car brands such as Maybach, Ferrari and Bentley," Jia said. Jia Yueting also said that FF 91 is not only a high-performance EV, but also an all-around car, a super car robot, and the third Internet living space. it is the only product in the world in the field of intelligent trams that is higher in product and technology positioning than Tesla Model Xhand s plaid.

Relevant industry insiders said that in the global new energy market, there has been a lack of a real luxury brand of electric vehicles. Traditional luxury brands S Maybach, Bentley and Rolls-Royce are luxury representatives of the fuel car era, but lack of technology, while Tesla is the representative of the new energy market, but it has not been enough in luxury. FF, which not only pays attention to the quality of science and technology, but also takes into account luxury, is expected to become the representative of this market, to make up for this market gap. The listing of FF does bring greater opportunities to Jia Yueting, and the mass production of FF91 and Jia Yueting's debt problems may be solved. But the listing of FF will also bring greater challenges, the mass production of FF91 needs more funds, and the subsequent funding gap will continue to be enlarged. Whether FF can be a blockbuster has yet to be tested by the market.
