Faraday Future announced the California Air Resources Board (CARB) has certified the FF 91 Futurist as a zero-emissions vehicle (ZEV).
The Zero-Emission Vehicle (ZEV) program is part of CARB’s Advanced Clean Cars package of coordinated standards that control smog-causing pollutants and greenhouse gas emissions of passenger vehicles in California.
The ZEV certification paves the way for FF to launch the all-electric FF 91 Futurist in California, and nine additional states that have adopted CARB’s ZEV requirements.
“CARB’s ZEV certification is an important step in the process of bringing the FF 91 Futurist to market,” said Dr. Carsten Breitfeld, Global CEO of Faraday Future. “One of FF’s founding principles is that we believe everyone has the right to breathe clean air. As a forward-thinking leader in clean energy EV technology, we’re confident Faraday Future, and its electric-powered offerings will be an asset in creating a future without smog-lined skies and greenhouse gas emissions.”
FF has announced the official certification of 381 miles of EV range from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
FF 91 Futurist’s propulsion architecture was designed to achieve unmatched levels of performance and efficiency, complete with 381 miles of range. The system produces 1,050 horsepower and accelerates the car from zero to 60 mph in less than 3 seconds. FF 91 Futurist’s EV range is based on a vehicle that is fully equipped, with ample power, 22-inch wheels, loaded with technology, luxurious interior space, and features that set it apart from all others. FF has tested and developed this car to offer the user a smart device on wheels with luxury, technology, performance, and superb emission-free EV range.
The FF 91 Futurist was designed in the company’s headquarters in Los Angeles, engineered in Los Angeles, Silicon Valley, and China, and is currently in production-intent phase at the FF ieFactory California. The FF 91 Futurist’ “Global DNA” reflects the talent at FF and across the globe, with support from top-tier suppliers from countries such as Italy, Germany, Japan, the Netherlands, China, Belgium, Switzerland and more.
Faraday will be able to launch its FF91 luxury vehicle without additional funding
