2017 Pikes Peak To Witness Titanic Electric Car Battle
Faraday Future plans to make a run at the infamous Pike Peak International Hill Climb where it will face off with its rival firm, the Tesla.
Electric car startup firm, Faraday Future, plans on making a run at the infamous Pikes Peak International Hill Climb in late June where it will compete against a modified Tesla Model S.
It is reported that Tesla will bring an FF 91 prototype to run at the hill climb event which in recent years, has experienced a massive increase in numbers of electric cars and motorcycles competing.
The electric cars have an added advantage at the Pikes Peak compared to the vehicles with internal combustion engines which lose significant amounts of power as the air at the height of 14,000 feet mountain becomes thinner.
However, Faraday will face off with the modified Model S P100D. Unplugged Performance, a tuning company that specialises in Teslas, will be running car at the event.
Now, if Faraday Future cannot outpace the Tesla, it could be yet another PR failure for the company.
According to the emerging reports, this year's Pikes Peak will be streamed live for the first time since Sebastien Loeb's record-breaking run in 2013.
