Faraday Future’s FF91
What you imagine when you think of future cars, may be a car
without wheels or which can fly or which can run on land and water. These are
imaginary but I cannot say these are impossible may be after a decade we might
see cars which can fly and drive itself.
But if we think practically electric cars are the future of
automobile, not just because they are eco-friendly but they also integrated
with some great technology.
Tesla has the biggest share in electric car segment but with
entry of Faraday Future their crown might be at risk. Faraday Future can be a
tough competitor for Tesla.
At CES International 2017 Faraday Future’s FF91 was the talk
of town.
FF91
Faraday Future an electric car maker named after a famous
scientist Michael Faraday unveiled FF91, a car on which any company boasts.
FF91 a four seater sedan that has the acceleration like a Formula One car and
beauty to admire off. It has the ability to learn and adapt to the driver.
The FF91 has 1,505hp engine and can accelerate 0 to 100Kmph
in just 2.39 seconds, making it the world’s fastest electric car and second
fastest car ever made. It will compete with the Tesla Model S P100D which
can reach 100Kmph in 2.5 seconds.
It has a glass roof, 22inch wheels and a 130KW battery and
company claims this car can cover about 608 km on a single charge. The FF91 can
unlock the door by recognising the driver’s face and can learn different things
about its driver and adapt according to that.
The most interesting thing about this car is a “driverless
valet” system. Driverless valet system enables the car to park itself and this
is possible with many cameras, radars and ultrasonic sensors that this car
consist.
Growing Skepticism
Despite all the promises of the company there is doubt as
whether this car will ever become reality. Will this car be ever built? Some
analysts are doubting the company’s financial solidity and overall investment
strategy. In November last year Aecom stopped constructing the $1bn Faraday
Future’s car factory due to unpaid invoices.
In December three key consecutives quit the company in the
duration of a week.
But despite all this, company is on their stand and opened a
section of its website where people can register for $5,000. The car cost may
be around 300,000 dollars.
