Faraday Future has just released two new images of its first production model set to debut at CES early next month.
Although we had hoped that the model would debut in production guise, one of these teasers reveals that it will still be a concept, as evidenced by the use of non-road-legal cameras in place of the wing mirrors.
Beyond these cameras, the above teaser shows an intriguing taillight design which has a pattern to mimic the front grille and includes an illuminated FF logo in the center. Also visible is a flowing roofline and a rear windshield which stretches right back to the rear fascia with no apparent decklid in sight.
As for the second teaser, it shows what appears to be a retractable LiDAR sensor that pops up from the roof and has been seen previously affixed to heavily camouflaged prototypes.
Although Faraday’s first model appears promising, many doubts about the company still exist, particularly in regards to its current financial situation.
Will Faraday Future cement itself as a legitimate rival to Tesla or will it collapse like Fisker? Sound off in the comments.
