faraday future

Faraday Future, an electric car company backed by a Chinese entrepreneur, said on Thursday it would invest$ 1 billion to build a 900-acre factory in a suburb of Las Vegas.

得到了一位中国企业家支持的电动车公司法拉第未来（Faraday Future）周四表示，将投资10亿美元，在拉斯维加斯郊区建一座占地900英亩的工厂。

Despite LeEco's own car failing to appear on stage, Mr Jia revealed that Faraday Future would perhaps unveil its first production car in January at the Consumer Electronics Show.

尽管乐视电动车未能现身舞台，贾跃亭透露法拉第未来或许会在1月份消费电子展（Consumer Electronics Show）上发布首款量产电动车。

The company is spending$ 1.8bn on an electric-car plant in east China's Zhejiang province and is also a primary backer of Faraday Future, which is building a separate electric car factory in the suburbs of Las Vegas.

该公司正斥资18亿美元，在浙江省建设一座电动汽车制造厂。此外，该公司还是法拉第未来（Faraday Future）的主要投资方之一，法拉第未来正在美国拉斯维加斯郊外建设另一座电动汽车制造厂。

While it is uncertain whether the four-motor, 1000-horsepower vehicle will ever go into production, Faraday Future said it used the same "modular" manufacturing technique that would underpin all its vehicles.

虽然目前尚不确定这款配置了四台发动机、1000马力的汽车是否有投产的一天，但Faraday Future表示旗下所有汽车将全部采用同样的“模块化”生产工艺。

Thanks to constant connectivity and autonomous driving technology, Faraday Future's cars might be owned outright by consumers or rented in a way that Mr Sampson likened to a mobile subscription or a digital media app such as Spotify or Netflix.

由于稳定的联网以及自动驾驶技术，消费者也许可以立即拥有Faraday Future的汽车，或通过桑普森所说的手机订购方式，或是Spotify、Netflix等数字媒体应用来租赁该公司的汽车。

It is also partnering with US-based Faraday Future, a secretive but well-funded developer of autonomous cars in which it is also an investor, to build LeEco's mobile and content services into Faraday's vehicles.

乐视还与美国公司法拉第未来（Faraday Future）合作，计划将乐视的移动和内容服务嵌入法拉第未来的车辆中。法拉第未来是一家神秘但资金充足的自动驾驶汽车开发商，乐视也投资了法拉第未来。

Teasers on social media say that Faraday will unveil the future at the technology event in Las Vegas.

社交媒体上的广告片称，Faraday将在拉斯维加斯的国际消费电子展上揭开未来的面纱。

That announcement appeared to come as a surprise to a Faraday Future executive sitting in the audience, who was shown shaking his head and seeming to gesture to Mr Jia that he did not want the news-shared privately before the stage show began-made public.

贾跃亭宣布这一消息时，坐在观众席里的法拉第未来的一名高管面露诧异，他摇了摇头，似乎示意贾跃亭他不想将该消息公之于众。发布会开始前该消息在私下传过。

Faraday Future, the electric car start-up that has pitched itself as a top challenger to Tesla, is set to miss its shipping deadline for its first vehicle, amid production delays and financing questions surrounding its main backer in China.

电动汽车初创企业Faraday Future的首款汽车将不会按时出货，该公司面临量产推迟以及围绕其在中国的主要投资者的资金问题。该公司一直将自己定位为特斯拉（Tesla）的最大挑战者。

After completing grading and foundation prep work at the site in North Las Vegas, Aecom said: Faraday Future is temporarily adjusting their construction schedule with plans to resume in early 2017.

在完成北拉斯维加斯工厂的土地平整和地基准备工作后，Aecom表示：Faraday Future暂时调整了建设计划，打算在2017年初重新开工。
