Faraday Future Files Three Patent Applications Through its Future AIHER Subsidiary Relating to AI-Powered Hybrid Extended-Range Systems
Future AIHER is positioning itself to lead commercialization and innovation through a two-phase strategic plan. In the short term, it would focus on integrating existing third-party range extender technology into the planned Faraday X (FX) vehicles, which could enable a faster market entry. In the long term, Future AIHER would aim to design and develop its own AI-driven range extender solutions, leveraging advanced technology to enhance efficiency and potentially expand commercialization opportunities to other mobility OEMs including air, ground, and ocean applications, such as electric vertical takeoff and landing (EVTOL) aircraft, commercial trucking, and electric boating industries.

China Matters' Feature: Low-altitude Economy -- A New Industry Reshaping Global Transportation
BEIJING, June 10, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- From electric vehicles (EVs) to the 4,500-kilometer high-speed railway network that accounts for two thirds of the global total, China is forging a connected world with its outstanding strength. In the field of transportation, China is pioneering a brand-new frontier: the low-altitude economy. To put it in a simpler way, vehicles can transform into flying machines to facilitate people's daily travels. In the future, flying taxis, delivery drones, and airborne adventures are poised to redefine transportation. With the emergence of such companies as DJI drone, China accounts for over 70% of global civilian drone sales. EHang, a Guangzhou-based tech pioneer, has become the world's first company to secure full aviation certifications for its passenger-carrying flying vehicles. The market value of China's low-altitude economy skyrocketed to over $70 billion in 2023, achieving an impressive annual growth rate of 33.8%. What's more, a new low-altitude route between Shenzhen and Zhuhai cuts the three-hour drive down to a 20-minute flight. Faster, more affordable, and with Instagram-worthy views: this is how urban mobility is redefining itself. None of this would be possible without cutting-edge technology. With 5G-Advanced networks tracking aircrafts in real-time, drones can now help plant crops, deliver packages, aid disaster relief operations. This sector's rapid growth highlights its potential to reshape logistics, tourism, and emergency services, signaling vast economic opportunities. Technological advancements in renewable energy, Al, and telecommunications have accelerated the development of low-altitude technologies, while government support and private investments fuel the progress of the entire industry. By integrating radar systems, 5G networks, and Al-driven monitoring, China aims to build a secure, efficient low-altitude ecosystem for future generations.

Qantas to close low-cost arm Jetstar Asia
Australia's Qantas said on Wednesday it will close Jetstar Asia, the group's Singapore-based budget airline, as it reels with rising supplier costs, higher airport fees and intensifying competition among low-cost carriers. The move will free A$500 million ($326.40 million) in capital for the flag carrier to invest in its fleet renewal plans. Qantas said that 13 Jetstar Asia Airbus A320 aircraft will be progressively redirected to Australia and New Zealand. Jetstar Asia continues to be negatively affected by rising supplier costs, high fees at airports and rising competition in the region, fundamentally challenging its ability to deliver returns comparable to the stronger performing core markets in the group. Group CEO Vanessa Hudson said the company has seen some supplier costs rise by up to 200%, materially changing its cost base. 'We are currently undertaking the most ambitious fleet renewal program in our history, with almost 200 firm aircraft orders and hundreds of millions of dollars being invested into our existing fleet,' Hudson added. The low-cost unit has faced intensifying competition from Southeast Asian budget carriers, including Capital A's AirAsia and Singapore Airlines' Scoot. Qantas launched Jetstar Asia over two decades ago, in a bid to capitalize on the growing demand for low-cost air travel in the continent. Jetstar Asia is currently expected to post an underlying EBIT loss of A$35 million in the current financial year. The airline will cease operating on July 31 and will continue flights for the next seven weeks.
