LeEco's Strategic Partner, Faraday Future's Racing Team to Debut at the Formula E Hong Kong ePrix on October 9

BANGALORE, October 7, 2016 /PRNewswire/ --

LeEco's strategic partner, Faraday Future has debuted its new season three race car livery and it will be competing head on with Mahindra Racing, which is the only participating team from India at the championship. This ultimate racing encounter will take place at the beginning of Season 3 (2016/2017) of the Formula E Hong Kong ePrix.  

Codenamed 'Polarity', the livery's focal point is a striking, minimalist contrast between black and white. Reflecting the duality of FF's future product line-up, the vehicle's white nose symbolizes clean energy, harnessed from a number of renewable resources. The juxtaposed black field embodies the assertive, powerful and refined performance that competitive drivers will experience behind the wheel. This complement between black and white also signifies the commitment of Faraday Future Dragon Racing and Formula E to pursue clean energy, elevated performance and a sustainable and forward-thinking future.

Faraday Future became technical partner and title sponsor of the renowned U.S. racing team Dragon Racing in July this year, renaming the team to Faraday Future Dragon Racing.

The California-based electric vehicle start-up Faraday Future has reached a strategic partnership with LeEco and unveiled its first prototype FFZERO1 Concept at CES 2016 (Consumer Electronics Show). In April, Faraday Future laid the foundation of its first Internet-connected intelligent and environmentally friendly factory in the U.S.

In the future, the team will incorporate more Faraday Future technologies, including software, firmware, motors, gearbox and the FF Echelon Inverter to the racing vehicles.
