Faraday Future Intelligent Electric (FFIE) said Thursday it has agreed to build a future Middle East headquarters in Ras al Khaimah, one of the seven princedoms that make up the United Arab Emirates.
The EV maker said the expansion is part of a deal with Ras al Khaimah's Master Investment Group, owned by Emirati royal family member Sheikh Abdulla Al Qassimi.
Financial terms were not disclosed.
The move is also part of a plan announced last November to begin operations and sales in the UAE, the company said.
Construction of the facility is scheduled to begin before the end of 2024, with the company aiming to move into the facility in late 2025 or early 2026.
The company has signed a lease with Ras Al Khaimah Economic Zone for office space and an engineering workshop as well as an agreement for a 108,000-square-foot in-construction facility as a future operational hub.
