Faraday Future

Faraday Future Intelligent Electric (NASDAQ: FFAI) is an El Segundo, California company founded in 2014 and long known for its much-delayed FF 91 luxury electric car. In early 2026 it pivoted into robotics, rebranding itself a 'Physical AI ecosystem company' under founder and global CEO YT Jia, and now sells a range of 'embodied AI' machines through FF.com, Amazon, and RobotShop: the full-size FF Futurist humanoid (from $89,900), the compact FF Master education/entertainment humanoid (from $9,990), and FX Aegis wheeled-legged quadrupeds. The hardware is widely reported to be white-labeled from Chinese OEMs such as AgiBot, so in October 2026 FF detailed a 'Built in USA' roadmap — US assembly of robots from February 2027 and 'Made in USA' devices and FCC-compliant parts by late 2028, backed by a pledged $5B over 10 years — partly to get around the July 2026 FCC ban on new Chinese-made humanoids. FF says it had shipped more than 550 robots (mostly quadrupeds) by September 2026, with a record 158 in August, but remains financially fragile with disclosed going-concern risk.
