The facility will support the production of both the company's FF- and FX-branded models.

Shanghai (Gasgoo)- Faraday Future (FF) announced on May 23 that it had held a formal handover ceremony for its first regional facility in Ras Al Khaimah, United Arab Emirates. The facility will support the production of both the company's FF- and FX-branded models.

The announcement follows a formal agreement signed on May 21 during the "Make it in the Emirates 2025" summit. At the event, FF's wholly-owned subsidiary, Faraday Future Middle East FZ-LLC, and the Ras Al Khaimah Economic Zone ("RAKEZ") sealed the partnership on-site.

The 108,000-square-foot facility will encompass an office, engineering workshop, and operational hub. The facility will support both the FF brand and potential FX models, serving as a hub for operations across the GCC, with potential future expansion into Europe and North Africa.

"Ras Al Khaimah offers exceptional infrastructure, visionary leadership, and strong regional connectivity—making it an ideal location for building a smart and sustainable mobility ecosystem," said Matthias Aydt, Global Co-CEO of FF. "We are proud to establish this regional gateway, which could generate up to 200 high-skilled jobs locally."

FF added that the site is expected to become operational in the second half of 2025. Looking ahead, the company plans to develop regional R&D capabilities and a localized supply chain in Ras Al Khaimah to further its strategic vision of sustainable and AI-driven mobility.

On February 5, Changan Automobile unveiled its global sodium-ion battery strategy, and the world's first mass-produced sodium-ion battery passenger vehicle was officially introduced. Test data shows that the vehicle equipped with CATL's sodium-ion battery delivers nearly three times the discharge power compared to conventional lithium iron phosphate vehicles with the same battery capacity under -30°C conditions. In extreme cold environments of -40°C, it maintains over 90% capacity retention, and it can still discharge stably even at the extreme low temperature of -50°C.
