Faraday Future unveils FX Super One MPV to rival Escalade
FX Super One features unique LED display and advanced technology features.
Faraday secures $105 million in financing for FX Super One launch.
Faraday Future Intelligent Electric Inc. unveiled its FX Super One MPV Thursday in Los Angeles, saying the first in its new line of affordable mass-market electric vehicles under the FX brand will compete with luxury SUVs such as Cadillac's Escalade.
The Gardena, California-based company (Nasdaq: FFAI) said it now has more than 10,000 'binding deposits' for the vehicle, even though the company hasn't released a price tag for it nor said when it will go on sale.

Faraday said the FX Super One MPV will have some unique features when it eventually hits the road, including its FF Super EAI F.A.C.E. (Front AI Communication Ecosystem), which is an external super LED display on the front fascia that will replace a vehicle's typical grill. With multiple changing front-screen images, the technology brings 'each vehicle a unique expression — 'a thousand faces for a thousand cars,'' Faraday said.
Other features touted by Faraday include floating rear zero-gravity seats; all-wheel drive; a longer wheelbase than the Escalade; a high-strength steel structure; a refrigerator; enhanced range on the highway using AI hybrid extended range technology (coming soon); a Dolby Atmos audio system; LiDAR, millimeter-wave radar, ultrasonic radar and HD camera sensors; and several seating configurations, including four-seat, six-seat and seven-seat choices.
The company will build the FX Super One at its factory in Hanford, California, located in the San Joaquin Valley region of the greater Central Valley.
The unveiling comes after Faraday said earlier this week it secured about $105 million in new cash financing, including $82 million of new financing commitments, to support the launch of the FX Super One model. The company also intends to use the funds to accelerate development and distribution efforts for its FF and FX brands and AI-related technologies.

Qualcomm (QCOM) Q2 Earnings Preview: What to Expect From Upcoming Report
July 29- Qualcomm (NASDAQ:QCOM) will reveal Q3 FY2025 results on July 30 after the market close. Wall Street expects adjusted EPS of $2.71, a 16.3% rise from a year ago, and revenue of $10.34 billion, up 10.1%. Investors eye the report amid worries that Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) will shift to in?house modem chips next year, potentially trimming Qualcomm's handset chip sales. Smartphone market pressures and tariff risks in China also weigh on sentiment. Warning! GuruFocus has detected 6 Warning Signs with QCOM. Still, analysts note Qualcomm's growing footprint in IoT, automotive and edge AI. Bernstein's Stacy Rasgon keeps a Buy rating with a $185 target, calling Qualcomm heavily out of favor yet undervalued given its diverse product lineup and expected double?digit earnings growth. He says it's worth keeping on investors' radar. KeyBanc envisions wider semiconductor power with the help of demand in A as well as new product ramps. It predicts positive prospects of Qualcomm in Q3 but warns that second part of 2025 can have backdrafts due to Apple moving to other modems and sluggish Android market in China. The results will help to understand what degree of offset of challenges related to the handset is possible to be achieved by the divisions, which are engaged with non-smartphone, and whether Qualcomm will be able to quality its growth trend up to the end of the year. Based on the one year price targets offered by 30 analysts, the average target price for Qualcomm Inc is $177.50 with a high estimate of $225.00 and a low estimate of $140.00. The average target implies a upside of +10.21% from the current price of $161.05. Based on GuruFocus estimates, the estimated GF Value for Qualcomm Inc in one year is $160.62, suggesting a downside of -0.27% from the current price of $161.05. Gf value is Gurufocus' estimate of the fair value that the stock should be traded at. It is calculated based on the historical multiples the stock has traded at previously, as well as past business growth and the future estimates of the business' performance.
