Faraday Future Holds First Annual Stockholders' Day, Company Provides FX Product Updates, Confirms FX Super One Launch Timing, and Secures 600 New Deposits from Multi-Channel Network (MCN) Agencies

LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Faraday Future Intelligent Electric Inc. (NASDAQ: FFAI) ('Faraday Future', 'FF' or 'Company'), a California-based global shared intelligent electric mobility ecosystem company, held its first Annual Stockholders' Day on Saturday, May 31, at the Company's global headquarters in Los Angeles. Attendees included stockholders and other Company guests who experienced Company presentations and updates, and personalized FF and FX vehicle ride and drive experiences. The event also offered an open Q&A session with FF executives and a special private dinner after the event for stockholders, offering an exclusive opportunity to engage directly with Company leadership. Words of encouragement from some of the Company's newest B2B partners were also delivered at the event. 'I want to personally thank all of the guests for being here at our very first 'Annual Stockholders' Day. It was a genuine pleasure to extend a welcoming hand to everyone who attended this event,' said Co-CEO YT Jia. 'This was more than just another Company event, it showed our unwavering commitment to stockholder engagement, long-term value creation, and full commitment to our 'Stockholders-First' principle.' FX Product and Brand Updates The Company plans to host the first exclusive offline product launch event for the FX Super One on June 29, tailored for five key groups: FF stockholders and investors; B2B sales partners and prospects; global supply chain partners; media, influencers and KOLs; co-creation officers and celebrities. Subsequently, FX will host a large-scale public launch event on July 17, the 'Super One Online Global Product Launch,' targeting retail consumers and opening up the large-scale online B2C paid pre-orders. FX Super One has now officially entered the parts procurement and production preparation phase. Internally, we've already started the countdown sprint toward having our first production vehicle off-line by year-end. Development of our second model and future products is also progressing steadily and according to plan. The Company is seeing strong momentum with B2B pre-orders for the FX brand. With the latest paid pre-order agreements, totaling 600 units, signed with two MCN agencies: CreatoRev and Good Deal, total binding B2B deposits for FX Super One now cover over 2,500 non-binding pre-orders. This marks significant progress toward FX's goal to disrupt the market dominance of some leading market players such as the Cadillac Escalade. CreatoRev and Good Deal will also collaborate as paid co-creation partners, enhancing the AI-MPV experience. This deep co-creation with leading American MCNs marks a breakthrough and key innovation in FX's Co-Creation Ecosystem Online Direct Sales. Through this, we broke away from influencer advertising and pioneered an end-to-end B2B2C co-creation ecosystem model between an automaker and MCN-affiliated creators, a model that's never been seen before in the global auto industry. At this point, FX's B2B pre-orders now expand to three major categories: FF Par (Partner) program; commercial rental and livery companies; and livestream ecommerce MCN agencies. In the first phase, we are planning to expand our reach across eight U.S. states (California, New York, Florida, Texas, Washington, New Jersey, Neveda, and Massachusetts). FX is expecting to unveil the FX 4 product plan in Q3 2025 and begin accepting pre-orders before year end. Positioned as 'the disruptor of RAV4 in the AIEV era,' the FX 4 is the planned model with the greatest potential to become a true blockbuster and unlock the mainstream market within FX's current product lineup. Company Operation Updates On the user operations front, the Company is accelerating the digitalization, systemization, and IT integration of its user engagement ecosystem, a key accomplishment for the mass production and delivery of FX next year. On the after-sales service front, the Company is advancing the FX Service Par program, working to quickly establish collaborations with major automotive service providers, dealerships, and aftermarket partners. The Company is building a robust internal R&D system, especially centered on bringing much of the software and AI, bringing the core technologies, software, and AI capabilities in our $300,000 flagship FF 91 to the FX product line. In the second half of the year, our voice interaction system based on large language models and the full FF ecosystem of services could be deployed in the planned FX Super One and FX 4. The Company is working to complete the full-vehicle engineering, supply chain integration, testing and validation, mass production readiness, and U.S. regulatory compliance for the Super One and launching the hardware development of the FX 4. FF has successfully built a complete cycle for the FF 91—from product definition to after-sales support. Leveraging our 'Light, Swift, and Empowering' model, FX is able to complete this entire process in less time than the industry average. Middle East Updates As part of FF's global strategy, the Company's Middle East facility in Ras Al Khaimah Economic Zone (RAKEZ) is now ready for occupancy. The local team will be taking over shortly, bringing international production capacity another step closer to reality. In the second half of the year, and contingent on available funding, FX aims to begin production of the FX Super One in the Middle East. The Middle East strategy presents four key values: Faster and more streamlined compliance processes; A high concentration of high net-worth users with strong demand for luxury business-class vehicles like the Super One; A critical opportunity to train our teams and validate our operational systems in preparation for large-scale U.S. market execution; and Visibility from FX's production, sales, and delivery, which will demonstrate our value and could bring strategic investors to the region.

Ford Issues Massive Recall for 1.1 Million Vehicles This Week

Ford is recalling 1,075,299 vehicles in the U.S. over a software error that potentially prevents the rearview camera from displaying a proper live feed. More specifically, the rearview camera's images may delay, freeze, or not display at all when affected vehicles are in reverse, according to the NHTSA's report. The recall applies to Ford's 2021-2024 Bronco, F-150, Edge, and 2023-2024 Escape, Corsair, F-250, F-350, F-450, F-550, and F-600. The 2022-2024 Expedition, 2022-2025 Transit, 2021-2023 Mach-E, Lincoln Nautilus, 2024 Ranger, Mustang, and the 2022-2024 Navigator are also impacted. A dealer or over-the-air software update will soon solve the problem with the vehicles' accessory protocol interface module (APIM) software, which serves as an operating system for a car's dashboard. This operating system helps a vehicle's infotainment system control programs, including but not limited to apps and navigation maps. There are no warning signs before the described rearview camera problem occurs. Documents related to the issue report that Ford is aware of one minor crash associated with the software problem, resulting in property damage, but no injuries or deaths. The automaker was initially contacted by the NHTSA about the issue in January after receiving three dozen complaints for 2021-2023 Ford F-150 models. Potentially affected owners are scheduled to receive a notice of the recall by mail between May 19 and May 23, whereas dealers were informed of the recall on May 12. Those driving impacted models compatible with over-the-air software updates must be connected to Wi-Fi to successfully complete the remote upgrade or visit a dealer. Ford's recall represented this week's largest recall order, with Toyota coming in second place at 443,444 vehicles. The Michigan-based automaker also leads all manufacturers in 2025 recalls at over 50, and the gap between first and second place is significant, according to CarEdge data. Through May 15, the Volkswagen Group has the second-highest number of recalls in 2025, at 14. General Motors and Stellantis North America are tied for the third-most at 11. Mercedes-Benz and Honda are tied for fourth with 9 recalls through May 15. Stellantis had the most recalls last year at 71. Ford models like the Explorer, Aviator, and Expedition have all undergone seatbelt recalls. The Volkswagen Group had one of the most unique recalls this year when its electric van was recalled due to a third-row bench seat that was deemed too wide for the van's number of seatbelts. Volkswagen dealers are responding by installing trim parts that reduce the rear seat's usable width. While Stellantis dethroned Ford's 2023 position as having the most recalls in 2024, the automaker has recaptured this undesirable status, and the competition isn't even close this year. The Michigan-based automaker has also issued the most recalls out of any manufacturer in history, with the F-150 pickup being the model most associated with its recalls. As bad luck would have it, the truck is yet again making an appearance with its inclusion in the NHTSA's list of vehicles potentially impacted by the rearview camera defect.

1948 Ferrari Sets Record as Broad Arrow Celebrates First European Auction at Villa d'Este

⚡️ Read the full article on Motorious Broad Arrow Auctions achieved a historic milestone at its inaugural European sale this past weekend, held during the prestigious Concorso d'Eleganza Villa d'Este. Headlining the event was a 1948 Ferrari 166 Spyder Corsa, which shattered auction records for the model, selling for an astonishing €7,543,750. The sale, conducted over two days at Villa Erba, marked Broad Arrow's debut on the European stage and its first as the official auction partner of BMW AG. The event drew global attention both in person and online, with more than 8,000 viewers tuning in via Broad Arrow's livestream. In total, 78 percent of lots found new owners, generating a sales total of €31,172,625, including post-auction transactions. 'This sale was not only a commercial success, but a historic one,' said Joe Twyman, VP of Sales for Broad Arrow's EMEA region. 'The setting, the cars, and the energy in the room all came together in spectacular fashion.' The record-setting 1948 Ferrari—believed to be one of the most original examples of the early Spyder Corsa models—was previously never offered for public sale. With Mille Miglia and Targa Florio provenance, the car captivated bidders worldwide, eventually selling after a spirited round of telephone bids. Additional highlights included a 2003 Honda NSX-R that realized €934,375—setting a new auction record for the model—alongside a €2,312,500 result for a 1989 Ferrari F40 Competizione. A rare 1980 BMW M1 built to Procar specification also achieved €602,500 during the BMW-exclusive segment of the auction. Kenneth Ahn, President of Broad Arrow, reflected on the weekend's success: 'This extraordinary debut on the shores of Lake Como underscores our commitment to global growth. We are honored by the support from collectors, our partners at BMW AG, and the Concorso d'Eleganza Villa d'Este.' Broad Arrow's next auction is slated for August 13–14 at the Monterey Jet Center in California, where it will once again present a premier selection of collector cars in conjunction with Motorlux.
