Along with the Tesla plant in Nevada Faraday future broke ground on a new plant in Nevada as well.http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-3540360/Faraday-Future-reveals-Nevada-megafactory-hopes-topple-Tesla-1billion-facility-build-mystery-electric-car-2018.html There has been some speculation on some blogs that the U.S. order for Litarion cells was from either Tesla or Faraday Future. In the German article it stated the order came from a U.S. startup "behind a strong partner". The speculation is that Faraday Future is a front for the Apple EV. This is all just speculation but you have to wonder who their U.S. order came from. If Faraday Future is not the front for Apple then that just adds another major new player. We will have to wait.
