These OEMs could serve as top-tier parts suppliers for FX, providing key components for two FX vehicles. This marks significant progress for FX and the Global Automotive Industry Bridge Strategy, giving FX the opportunity, subject to securing necessary funding, to establish a globally competitive supply chain and significantly shorten the delivery cycle to meet the strategic goal of rolling out the first model by the end of 2025.

These agreements support FX’s goals of seizing historic blue ocean opportunities of the American AIEV industry and becoming the “Toyota of the AIEV era.”

“By empowering the FX mass-market models with much of the Ultimate AI TechLuxury technologies, we hope to fill the gap in the U.S. mass market and bring AIEVs with extreme price-performance ratio to American users,” said FF Global CEO Matthias Aydt.

“Through collaboration with top OEMs, FX plans to integrate global resources to establish a highly cost-effective supply chain while ensuring quality. By leveraging FF’s extensive product and technology advantages in AI, software, and intelligent internet applications, we aim to quickly achieve our vision of Co-create, An AIEV for Everyone,” said Max Ma, Global CEO of FX.

The Company announced that Xiao (Max) Ma has been appointed Global CEO of FX, reporting directly to both FF Global CEO Matthias Aydt and Founder & CPUO YT Jia. The FX brand has also begun hiring for key positions.
