This marks FF’s official entry into the East Coast market and also serves as a strategic foundation for FF’s future market expansion, potentially opening doors to a broader high-end user base in the area.

The New York State market represents a growth opportunity for both FF and, eventually, FX, given its status as one of the world’s largest and most influential economic hubs as well as a growth market for EVs. Expanding into this market could not only enable FF and FX to establish and strengthen their positions within the U.S. EV industry but also increase brand visibility. FF is working closely with stakeholders to refine Company offerings and ensure the best services are provided to customers.

“The East Coast market represents a significant opportunity for both FF and our future FX brand, and we are excited that Univest has both joined the FF family and will also help us establish a presence in New York and on Wall Street,” said Matthias Aydt, Global CEO of Faraday Future. “This is not just another sale for the Company, it is a milestone—placing our first car in New York lays the foundation for not only additional sales of the FF 91 2.0 but also for potential future FX models.”
