Are Faraday Future and Ferrari related?

[LouisDella]

Faraday Future and Ferrari are not related. Below is relevant information: Introduction to Faraday Future: Faraday Future (Faraday-Future, abbreviated as FF) is a global internet-based intelligent mobility ecosystem company, aiming to provide global users with new energy, intelligent, connected, and shared products and services. The FF91 is FF's first mass-produced vehicle and flagship model, an ultra-luxury pure electric vehicle capable of autonomous driving and wireless connectivity. Introduction to Ferrari: Ferrari is a world-renowned manufacturer of racing and sports cars, headquartered in Maranello, Italy. Founded by Enzo Ferrari in 1947, it primarily produces Formula One racing cars, race cars, and high-performance sports cars.

As someone who frequents car forums, I've noticed many people get misled by the names. Faraday Future and Ferrari, apart from sharing the characters 'Faraday' in their names, are completely unrelated. Ferrari is a veteran Italian supercar manufacturer founded by Enzo Ferrari, while Faraday Future is a new electric vehicle startup from Silicon Valley, USA, named in honor of Michael Faraday, the pioneer of electromagnetism. Just look at their logos—Ferrari's prancing horse emblem and Faraday Future's tech-inspired 'F' logo—they're clearly not from the same world.

I've test-driven the Ferrari 488 and also sat in the FF91 at an auto show. To be honest, the two brands have completely different positioning. Ferrari focuses on fuel-powered supercars, where even the engine roar is a work of art; Faraday Future is all about intelligent electric vehicles, with a center console screen that can flip horizontally and vertically across three displays. Once, at a car club, I discussed this and realized many newcomers thought Faraday Future was Ferrari's electric sub-brand. In reality, Ferrari's electric vehicle project is called the FUV—they don't even share naming conventions. Their headquarters are worlds apart: one in Maranello, Italy, and the other in California, USA, separated by the entire Atlantic Ocean.

From a corporate background perspective, it's clear: Ferrari was born in 1947 when China had not yet been liberated, and now belongs to the Fiat Group; Faraday Future was only established in 2014, with its founder Jia Yueting being the former boss of LeEco. At last year's Munich Motor Show, I saw Ferrari's booth filled with the roar of V12 engines, while next door, Faraday Future's booth was demonstrating automatic parking technology. The core difference lies in the fact that one sells mechanical passion, and the other sells electronic technology, with their target user groups not even overlapping.
