Faraday Future Intelligent Electric Inc. (NASDAQ:
FFAI) (“Faraday Future”, “FF” or “Company”), a California-based global shared intelligent electric
mobility ecosystem company, today announced the establishment of FF EAI-Robotics Inc., headquartered in California, and officially launched
its first batch of Embodied AI (EAI) humanoid and bionic robots—FF Futurist (full-size professional humanoid), FF Master (athletic
“action master” humanoid), and FX Aegis (quadruped security/companion), with the first batch of deliveries planned for the
end of February, and with the target to be the first in North America to deliver both humanoid and quadruped robots simultaneously.
The unveiling occurred at the annual National
Automobile Dealers Association (NADA) Show in Las Vegas, NV. In addition to the three robotic entries, the Company unveiled the “Three-in-One”
FF EAI Robotics Ecosystem Strategy, Technology and Product, which includes three core components: EAI Device, EAI Brain & Open-Source
and Open Platform, and EAI Decentralized Data Factory.
The full video of the event can be found
here: https://www.ff.com/us/NADA2026/
FF not only launched the first three FF embodied
intelligence (EAI) robots but also opened paid non-binding pre-orders and full sales, as it strives to achieve initial deliveries in the
same month, targeting to become the first U.S. company to deliver both humanoid and quadruped robots and one of the industry leaders in
EAI robotics.
As of today, the total number of FF EAI Robotics
units covered by non-binding and non-refundable paid B2B deposits has reached more than 1,200, which marks a terrific start for the Company’s
robotics goals. These B2C preorders were made by entities receiving compensation for cocreation activities.
EAI Robotics and EAI Vehicles:
With this new strategy, FF looks to take the
lead in opening a new AI frontier—starting in the U.S. This dual-track growth model, driven by both EAI vehicles and EAI robotics,
could define a new growth curve for the Company.
This move is a natural extension of the AI
DNA that has been embedded in FF since day one. It is also the inevitable evolution of the vehicle-as-robot concept the Company proposed
ten years ago.
Second, this replicates and upgrades FF’s
Auto Industry Bridge model, based on full regulatory compliance and localized deployment of data, software, AI, cloud services, and operating
systems, FF could integrate a global EAI supply chain to deliver robots with a high price-performance ratio, filling a critical market
void in the United States.
Third, the AI robotics business features lighter
investment, faster delivery, and could generate positive operating cash flow more quickly.
Fourth, EAI robotics and EAI vehicles act
as twin engines driving FF forward. They work hand-in-hand across R&D, manufacturing, sales, and service. Combined with FF’s
Dual-Flywheel, Dual-Bridge, and Dual-Public-Company structure, they could create a strong ecosystem synergy and open a new growth curve
for the company.
“Today marks a pivotal and exciting
point in FF’s history, one that we’ve been planning for some time now,” said YT Jia, Founder and Global Co-CEO at FF.
“Working alongside humans, we believe EAI robots will help reshape productivity models and drive a new leap forward in productivity
through human–machine symbiosis.”
Robots:
Three robotic forms were introduced at the
NADA event. FF Futurist, FF Master, and FX Aegis. First, FF Futurist, is positioned as a full-size, professional EAI humanoid robot—an
all-around expert for professional roles. It is targeted to become the first humanoid robot in the United States to achieve mass production
and delivery.
Second, FF Master, positioned as an athletic
EAI humanoid robot. It is an all-intelligence action master that truly understands you. We believe that it will be one of the most cost-effective
humanoid robot products in the U.S. market.
Third, FX Aegis, positioned as a professional
quadruped EAI robot for security and companionship. It is a loyal, practical guardian, and will be one of the earliest robot friends to
enter your daily life and work environments.
FF Futurist: Is a full-size,
professional EAI humanoid robot—your all-around expert for professional roles. He was built for the real world. To take on serious
jobs, work alongside people. Powered by the NVIDIA Orin platform, he can deliver up to 200 TOPS of computing power, with support for continuous
upgrades and expansion. That means he doesn’t just understand complex environments—he can grow with every new task, every
new industry, and every new challenge.
He sees the world in detail with industry-leading
perception. He has a perception system that combines multiple high-resolution cameras, fisheye camera, RGB-D camera, 3D LiDAR, and tactile
sensors. With Wi-Fi and 5G, He can support remote control, VR teleoperation, and collaborative work.
FF Futurist will have 28 high-performance
motors, peak torque of up to 500 Newton-meters, a power density of 125 Newton-meters per kilogram, 3-hour operating time and hot-swappable
battery design. He can support natural interaction in up to 50 languages, and features a fully customizable, interactive facial display.
Combined with tailored software solutions, he can deliver a thousand faces for a thousand robots, adapt to different people, different
roles, and different moments.
FF Futurist Usage Scenarios:
He can be seen in many roles including in hotels, showrooms, and museums, basically a multilingual super concierge. In retail, dealerships,
and real estate, he is the most professional super sales advisor. On stage, at launch events and shows, he is a composed and versatile
super host. In schools, institutions, and labs, he is a forward-looking research and teaching assistant. In theme parks and pop-ups, he
can be the most intelligent brand ambassador. In the next phase, he can be entering homes and factories, as a friendly household assistant
and a productive industrial partner, giving people back more time for creativity and innovation.
FF Master: Is an athletic EAI
humanoid robot—your all-intelligence action master who truly understands you. He can be more than just an AI companion but instead
a real companion who helps in everyday life. At home, he can study with your kids, chat with your parents, and help you unwind. When you
are away, he helps you check in on your home through remote video and sensors after the upgrade to make sure everything is okay. He can
adapt and learn new skills. He has 30 degrees of freedom in his body, not counting his hands.
FF Master Usage Scenarios: At
events, he can be a “Chief Interaction Officer.” In classrooms and labs, he can be a hands-on assistant for research and training.
He can constantly evolve, maybe become your personal trainer, your outdoor companion—stepping beyond the living room, exploring
further, and discovering more possibilities of life.
FX Aegis: Is a professional,
embodied AI quadruped robot designed for security and companionship. Aegis is naturally adaptable to complex environments. Its peak joint
torque can reach 48 Newton-meters, easily overcoming obstacles of about 13 inches and climbing stably on slopes of 40 degrees. Aegis supports
Wi-Fi and 5G communication and can also expand to remote operation capabilities, allowing it to work continuously outdoors, in industrial
sites, and even in areas far from network coverage.
Aegis is highly adaptable both structurally
and functionally. It comes standard with a quadrupedal structure, while also supporting an optional four-wheeled version; it can flexibly
expand with LiDAR, depth cameras, communication modules, and even robotic arms, fire extinguishers, and professional security plugins
according to task needs—allowing it to seamlessly integrate into different scenarios.
On the software level, it can connect with
home, campus, and industrial security systems, achieving continuous patrol, status feedback, and intelligent linkage. Aegis also comes
with mature autonomous patrol and follow-me capabilities. It can perform stably without frequent human-machine interaction. Outdoors and
on the road, it can follow alongside, providing lightweight assistance and safety assurance.
FX Aegis Usage Scenarios: On
the road, it’s a reliable traveling partner. In factories and law enforcement—it functions as a professional security pioneer.
In emergency rescue and high-risk environments, it is always the first to enter the scene. And in asset inventory and small item delivery
tasks, it is also a punctual, silent mobile messenger.
Robotics Pricing/Sales/Service:
Today, FF also announced the pricing for its
three embodied AI robots. It is as follows:
The FF Futurist series, starting
from $34,990.
The FF Master series, starting

the embodied AI robotics industry is reaching a critical moment—a tipping point where technological breakthroughs are giving way
to large-scale commercialization.”
FF’s Robotics Brand Vision:
Through FF EAI-Robotics Inc. and the brand
slogan “Solving real-world problems with EAI, and building a civilization of human–machine symbiotic productivity,”
FF positions embodied AI robots, together with vehicles, to drive the next stage of productivity and civilization evolution.
“6-3-3” Industry Applications
& Practical Value:
Built on six leading tech/product advantages,
FF introduced the “6-3-3 Industry Applications and Practical Value” framework: six commercial & public-service scenarios,
three family service scenarios, and three industrial scenarios, covering needs across enterprises, public institutions, households, and
tech-enthusiast individuals.
Four Trends:
FF outlined four key “Four Trends”
for the robotics industry—General & Autonomy, Profession & Expertise, Data as an Asset, and Protocol-based Ecosystem, defining
the path from single-purpose machines to a scalable human–machine symbiotic ecosystem.
FF Par - FF’s Co-Creation User Ecosystem
Partner program:
FF Par introduces two major upgrades to the
traditional dealership model. First, a business model upgrade. Instead of relying solely on one-time vehicle sales, FF Par enables a sustainable
revenue model built on vehicle sales + user operations + intelligent terminal ecosystem operations. Partners can share in the long-term
value across the product lifecycle—without bearing traditional risks such as high inventory pressure, high operating costs, or pricing
instability.
Second, a capital model upgrade. Partners
are brought into FF’s co-creation ecosystem—meaning dealers don’t just sell products, they become stakeholders, directly
participating in and sharing the long-term capital value. Upgraded dealer & partner platform – FF Par redefines the traditional
dealership model with a user-operations-driven partner platform that upgrades both business (vehicle sales + user operations + intelligent
terminal ecosystem) and capital models (partners becoming FF-level value sharers), and positions future dealers as “intelligent
terminal operators” selling both vehicles and robots.
FF firmly believes that FF’s user co-creation
ecosystem will inject new vitality into automotive dealerships across the United States—offering an innovative solution built on
user operations and intelligent terminal ecosystems. FF also believes that the future sales channels for robotics will highly overlap
with automotive channels. Tomorrow’s car dealers can evolve into “intelligent terminal operators”—selling both
vehicles and robotics products.
Looking over the long-term, FF believes that
global robot ownership could reach tens of billions of units over time, potentially far exceeding the scale of today’s global automobile
fleet.
