Faraday Future Starts Testing 91 For Pikes Peak Climb

As promised back in February, Faraday Future is getting ready to climb Pikes Peak this summer. Today, the company released some more information about the climb attempt as part of its “testing series.” The automaker is starting a video series called, “Testing the FF 91,” which, “will chronicle the detailed testing efforts made by FF’s engineers to bring a new species of electric mobility to the market and push the limits of FF’s technology in a variety of demanding environments.” This particular demanding environment, of course, is a 12.42-mile route that takes 156 turns to reach the 14,115-foot summit.
