WELCOME!
In 2019, electric vehicles and autonomous
driving are again the hottest topic in the
automotive industry, a global phenomenon
where non-traditional players like Tesla were
able to claim market leading positions agains
classic competitors like Volkswagen,
Mercedes and Toyota.
Battery prices fell 35 percent in the last 24
months and are on a trajectory to make
unsubsidized electric vehicles as affordable as their gasoline
counterparts in the next six years.
The number of commercial charging stations is also growing quickly in
part because they are relatively cheap—costing $3,000 to $7,500 per
port. When attached to a business, they can attract customers, and
encourage them to stay longer and spend more.
By 2040, long-range electric cars will cost less than $22,000 (in
today’s dollars), according to the projections. Thirty-five percent of
new cars worldwide will have a plug.
The highlight clearly was Tesla’s success to secure more than 400,000
reservations for their Model 3. Production has begun in mid 2017 and
Tesla deliveries for 2019 are ramped up to 5,000 units per week with
eventually 10,000 units per week being planned.
Also Autonomous Driving has seen major breakthrough with Tesla
demonstrating fully functional AV technology in their Model S.
Many agree that a shift is under way that will lead to widespread
adoption of EVs in the next decade. It’s looking like the 2020s will be
the decade of the electric car.

Introduction

4. In the late 1890s electric vehicles (EVs) had outsold gasoline cars ten to one. EVs
were dominating roads and dealer showrooms. Several automotive companies
started out as successful EV companies such as Oldsmobile and Studebaker.
However, their focus later Transition to gasoline-powered vehicles. The first car
dealerships actually dealt exclusively for EVs.
Early production of EVs was accomplished by hand assembly. In 1910, volume
production of gasoline powered cars was achieved with the motorized assembly line.
This breakthrough manufacturing process killed off all but the most well-financed car
builders. Independents, unable to buy components in volume died off. The infrastructure
for electricity was almost non-existent outside of city boundaries – limiting EVs to city-
only travel. Another contributing factor to the decline of EVs was the addition of an
electric motor (called the starter) to gasoline powered cars – finally removing the need
for the difficult and dangerous crank to start the engine. Due to these factors, by the end
of World War I, production of electric cars stopped and EVs became niche vehicles –
serving as taxis, trucks, delivery vans, and freight handlers.
In the late 1960s and early 1970s, a rebirth
of EVs prompted was by concerns about air
pollution and the OPEC oil embargo. In the
early 1990s, a few major automakers
resumed production of EVs – prompted by
California 's landmark Zero Emission Vehicle
(ZEV) Mandate. Those EVs were produced in
very low volumes – essentially hand-built
like their early predecessors. However, as
the ZEV mandate was weakened over the
years, the automakers stopped making EVs
– Toyota was the last major auto maker to
stop EV production in 2003.

8. Faraday Future is an American based start-up that is Chinese-
backed and that is focusing on developing intelligent electric
vehicles. The company was established in 2014 and is
headquartered in Gardena, California. The companies financial
backer is LeEco, a Chinese consumer electronics company.
In 2016, the company debuted its first concept
vehicle the single-seat FFZERO1. The FFZERO1
has 1,000hp (750 kW) that can go up to
200mph.
FF announced plans to build a $1 billion electric
car factory in Nevada in 2016 and it received a
$300 million incentive package in order to build
the factory.
The company ended up not doing a lot more
than moving some dirt around on the land it
acquired and finally abandoned the plan last
year while it was running out of cash.
They instead bought an old tarp manufacturing
facility in a farm town between Los Angeles and
San Francisco and announced plans to convert
it into a high-tech electric car factory.
Despite the significant change of plan, the
company still claims that it can bring its first car,
the FF91, to production in 2018.
