For the past decade, Tesla has creaded the cars of the future: sleekly designed, technically advanced machines that brought with them a vision of how amazing and practical electric cars could be. But now trading as a public company, Tesla is no longer the energetic new kid on the block — and it could be ripe for disruption, if Faraday gets its way. Faraday Future first came into the news last summer when news leaked of its existence and its intention to produ...
