People have been worried if Faraday Future (FF) would ever build a car. Turns out, it's been testing its first model for "almost a year," according to a company press release.
SEE ALSO:Daimler and BMW reportedly walk away from Apple Car development talksSo far, the test car has been subjected to some seriously rigorous extreme-weather testing. It's been pushed to the max in temperatures from searing heat of summertime desert roads to severe cold-weather conditions well below zero on the Fahrenheit scale.
Before you keep your eyes peeled for a camouflaged FFZERO1 rolling through your town, the car FF is testing is a mule. In the automotive industry, a mule is a car that has the technical components of a future model, like the powertrain, the suspension, the electrical architecture, the battery, the control system, but it doesn't necessarily have the production exterior components.
So even if Faraday were driving an FFZERO1 in your neighborhood, you might not recognize it or even give it a second glance.
If you're wondering what a FF production car might look like, though, you can consider the recently unveiled LeSEE luxury EV concept car from Chinese tech giant LeECO, which is the company funding Faraday.
