It seems it's been a while where EV maker Faraday Future has been hanging by a thread.In the past year or so, the company has barely avoided bankruptcy and being evicted from its California headquarters. Following a cash infusion, the company has worked hard to stay afloat, even showing off two prototype mules and announcing plans to ultimately offer a sub-$30,000 electric van early this year.So how has it been going since?
On today's episode of Quick Charge, it's back to your regularly scheduled news programming with reports that Tesla employees are getting fired for asking Elon to step down as the new Model Y flops hard in the global marketplace. We've also got a new electrified Volvo XC70 and Micah has a close call with the law! We've also got a deep dive into Tesla sales in China through April, and how they compare to 2024 and 2023, along with a reminder to the Elon faithful that Faraday Future is, somehow, still a thing, and to look both ways before pulling out into a bike lane. Source Links Tesla (TSLA) shareholders get excited for ‘Tesla prototype' that turn out to be a competitor's Faraday Future starts shipping FF91 with many buzzwords and a $309K price Faraday Future's FF91 is finally here, and I was the first media to drive it Tesla employees ask Elon Musk to resign, confirm massive demand problem, get fired for it Tesla (TSLA) slows down in China despite new Model Y production Volvo teases all-new XC70 PHEV with 125 miles of electric range for 2026 All the EVs you can buy with 0% interest financing in May 2025 [update] A cop nearly smeared me across the bike lane.

For those of you keeping track of the handful of EV startups still standing, you may not have thought Faraday Future was one of them.The California company, established in 2014, made news in February when it was revealed that the automaker had been served with an eviction notice from its Gardena headquarters – one it narrowly evaded in the end after making some payments and agreeing to some fresh terms.In May, Faraday warned investors it could potentially file for bankruptcy – AND, that it was at risk of being de-listed by the Nasdaq.
We're back! After a nice break for the holiday Marques, Andrew, and David waste no time getting right back into the newest gadgets and announcements. With Ellis and Adam both out sick, Mariah is in control of the producer table so you know it's going to be a good one.

Noticias Económicas y Financieras Hay nuevamente exuberancia en los mercados mientras los operadores celebran con estilo luego de la primera lectura del IPC del año que descendió. No importa que la caída haya sido minúscula y que la tasa de inflación aún se mantenga muy por encima del 3%, lo único que importa es que el presidente de la Reserva Federal, Jay Powell, ha señalado que el próximo movimiento de tasas con toda probabilidad será hacia abajo y no hacia arriba. En ese sentido, los principales índices están alcanzando nuevos máximos históricos, el repunte de las acciones de memes se ha recargado y casi parece que están a punto de entregarse nuevos controles de estímulo (no se haga ilusiones). Mientras busca evitar una crisis inmobiliaria más profunda, China ha anunciado un amplio paquete de rescate que incluye flexibilizar las normas hipotecarias, permitir a los gobiernos locales comprar unidades para convertirlas en viviendas asequibles y prometer más esfuerzos para garantizar la entrega de viviendas sin terminar. Las medidas se producen cuando los precios de los bienes raíces residenciales se desploman en China, y en abril se presenciaron las caídas secuenciales más pronunciadas desde que comenzó la crisis en 2021. Las acciones chinas terminaron la sesión al alza tras la noticia, con el índice compuesto SSE $SHCOMP terminando con un alza del 1% y El índice Hang Seng Properties aumenta un 2.5%. $WMT Walmart está en el punto de mira después de lograr un trimestre potente. El minorista más grande de EE. UU. se benefició de los compradores de altos ingresos que buscaban precios más bajos, así como del crecimiento de la publicidad digital. Las acciones alcanzaron máximos históricos el jueves, y los analistas de Wall Street confían en que la racha ganadora puede continuar dada la capacidad del gigante minorista para ganar participación de mercado y su enorme expansión de margen. El analista de Sudáfrica, Justin Purohit, es un poco más cauteloso y dice que los gastos relacionados con nuevas iniciativas y la competencia actual de Amazon $AMZN, Aldi y Kroger $KR pueden, en última instancia, alcanzar a Walmart. Había expresado esperanzas de acuerdos de licencia de datos durante su proceso de IPO, y acaba de cumplir su gran deseo. Una nueva asociación llevará el contenido de Reddit $RDDT a ChatGPT de OpenAI al permitir que la empresa respaldada por Microsoft $MSFT acceda a su API de datos. Las acciones de Reddit se dispararon más del 14 % en las operaciones previas a la comercialización tras el anuncio, por lo que OpenAI también se convertirá en socio publicitario de Reddit. $FFIE Faraday Future se dispara en aparente breve contracción. La Corte Suprema dictamina que la estructura de financiación del CFPB es legal. Los accionistas de Boeing decidirán si Calhoun permanecerá a bordo. Los envíos de carbón de Baltimore se reanudarán antes de lo previsto.

After a significant deep-dive into the NIO swapping news, Tu then asks Lei about the announcement that Stellantis will use CATL to supply them batteries for the EU market. This in addition to the recent investment that Stellantis had made in Chinese EV company LeapMotor. The conversation transitions over to the US and Tu and Lei's thoughts on how the final IRA language is going to shake out and how it may affect the automakers that manufacture inside the US which is just about all of the non-Chinese legacy automakers.Tu and Lei then get into their experience in LA, both going to Faraday Future's Investor Day and then to the LA Auto show and watching the Lucid Gravity unveil. The podcast closes out with Tu and Lei discussing the popularity of extended range electric vehicles (EREVs)

I get that headlines and the outrageous is what gets people talking... I mean that's what I am doing right now on this podcast episode. However, if electric cars are to really take hold of the mass market, we need these new companies to get away from these outrageous concepts. A $250,000 electric car as your first option is insane, considering the market we are in and who you ultimately want to attract. What would the trickle-down effect be of a niche manufacturer, just starting out, pricing their car for the 1%? How is this sustainable? Where are the actual $40,000 and under electric cars that the masses will buy? On this episode of CarQuicks I am basically venting about the ridiculousness of the Faraday Future FF91 announcement and the reality that these electric car start-ups aren't building companies for mass adoption. They are building headline story media companies. Sit back and enjoy... this is CarQuicks.

About Apex.AI Apex.AI is a Palo Alto, Munich, Berlin, Stuttgart and Gothenburg-based company that is developing breakthrough safe, certified, developer-friendly, and scalable software for mobility systems. Our software products are based on proven open-source software, such as ROS or Eclipse iceoryx, so that we don't spend time redeveloping what already works. Instead, we fork software that has been developed and proven in use by large developer communities. We then add what is missing: Functional safety, flawless performance, and support for application in commercial and safety-critical products. In order to do so, we have developed a proprietary process to rework open-source software in record time such that it conforms to the highest requirements of the applicable functional safety standard. We launched our award-winning first product Apex.Grace, formerly known as Apex.OS, after three years in 2020 and have taken it through certification in record time for launch in 2021.

Tu and Lei end this week's podcast with a discussion on what it takes to be successful in the global EV space, something they feel that only two companies can really claim for now - BYD & Tesla.

Lei heads to California for a family vacation so Tu takes over for this week's headlines.Tu and Lei kick off this week's pod by talking Faraday Future's pre-production vehicle that was unveiled earlier in the week. Lei moves the conversation over to the news that NIO is getting into mobile phones and how this is a trend that other automakers and technology companies will follow. Tu broadens the discussion on NIO and the implications of the increased capacity coming online later this year for them. The discussion heads over to the brewing Tesla vs. BYD biggest EV maker in the world title that both are vying for with their recent announcements of increased capacity. Tu talks about how the west has not only begun to pay attention to China EV Inc but also China Battery Swapping Inc with the news that CATL will be launching a battery swapping service. Where does battery swapping fit into the charging infrastructure conversation and who will end up taking on that technology? Tu explains why battery swapping lends itself so well to the China market.Lei closes out the pod detailing his experience renting a Hertz Tesla Model 3 for a week in California. It looks like Tesla has another convert!
