Notes payable bearing annual interest																								On March 30, 2018, the cash funding was restructured via an agreement in the form of notes payable bearing an annual interest rate of 12.00% and maturing on December 31, 2020. The notes payable are unsecured and there are no covenants associated with these notes payable.Faraday & Future (HK) Limited F&F HK provided an aggregate principal loan in the total sum of $212,007 to the Company as part of the agreement on March 30, 2018. On June 27, 2019, the Company entered into a note payable cancellation agreement for a portion of the note payable with F&F HK effective January 1, 2019 and simultaneously the note payable was assumed by a third-party lender. The agreement cancelled $48,374 of principle and $5,805 of unpaid interest due to F&F HK. There was no loss or gain on the extinguishment of note payable due to the net carrying amount of the note payable extinguished being equivalent to the reacquisition price of the new note payable.

Ltd  Between December 2017 and July 2018, the Company executed several notes payable agreements with Beijing Bairui Culture Media Co., Ltd. (“Bairui”) for total principal of $27,329. Bairui was previously controlled by the Company’s founder and former CEO. Each note payable originally matured one year after its issuance. The notes payable originally bore interest of 0% per annum. The notes payable are unsecured and there are no covenants associated with these notes payable. During the year ended December 31, 2019, Bairui forgave $2,487 of the outstanding notes payable. Due to the notes payable having below market interest rates, the Company imputed interest upon entering into the notes payable resulting in a notes payable discount and a capital contribution due to the related party nature of the arrangements. During the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company recognized interest expense of $3,476 related to the accretion of the discount. As of December 31, 2019, the unamortized discount was $3,557. On January 1, 2020, the Company executed an amendment to consolidate the notes payable into one note for the same amount, extend the maturity date of this note payable to December 31, 2020, and increased the interest rate from 0% to 12%. Since the cash flows of the modified note payable exceeded the cash flows of the original notes payable by more than 10%, the modification has been accounted for as an extinguishment with a loss on extinguishment of $314 recorded in gain on extinguishment of related party notes payable, notes payable, and vendor payables in trust, net in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss during the year ended December 31, 2020. The net carrying value of the original note payable of $20,842 was replaced with a note payable with a fair value of $21,156. Additionally, accretion of $2,586 was recorded in interest expense during the year ended December 31, 2020 related to the unamortized discount.     As of and for the Year Ended December 31,     2020   2019  Outstanding principal  $—   $24,399  Accrued interest   —    —  Interest expense   4,073    3,476  Unrealized foreign exchange (gain) loss on principal   —    443  Unrealized foreign exchange (gain) loss on accrued interest   —    —  Principal payments   —    —  Interest payments   —    —  Proceeds   —    —  CYM Tech Holdings LLC On August 28, 2020, the related party notes payable with F&F HK, Leview, and Bairui were restructured to consolidate the lenders and extend the maturity date through June 30, 2021, transferring both the principal and accrued interest to the new lender, CYM Tech Holdings LLC, wholly-owned subsidiary of F&F HK.     As of and for the Year Ended December 31,     2020   2019  Outstanding principal  $240,543   $—  Accrued interest   64,827    —  Interest expense   10,134    —  Unrealized foreign exchange (gain) loss on principal   —    —  Unrealized foreign exchange (gain) loss on accrued interest   —    —  Principal payments   —    —  Interest payments   —    —  Proceeds   —    —  The related party notes payable that were restructured were the following: Before Restructuring  Lender  Principal  Faraday & Future (HK) Limited  $149,081  Leview Mobile (HK) Ltd   66,859  Beijing Bairui Culture Media, Co. Ltd   24,603  Total  $240,543  After Restructuring  Lender  Principal  CYM Tech Holdings LLC  $240,543  The restructuring has been accounted for as a troubled debt restructuring because the Company has been experiencing financial difficulty and the conversion mechanism results in the effective borrowing rate decreasing after the restructuring which was determined to be a concession. Since the future undiscounted cash flows of the restructured note payable exceed the net carrying value of the original notes payable due to the maturity date extension, the restructuring is accounted for prospectively with no gain or loss recorded in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. The Company concluded that the conversion features do not require bifurcation based on the derivative accounting scope exception in ASC 815 for certain contracts involving an entity’s own equity. (2)On January 28, 2019 and February 1, 2019, the Company borrowed $7,000 and $3,000, respectively from Evergrande Health Industry Group Limited (“China Evergrande”). China Evergrande is an affiliate of a significant shareholder of the Company. The notes payable matured on June 30, 2019 and were in default as of December 31, 2020 and 2019. The notes payable bear interest at an annual rate of 10.00% if repaid through June 30, 2019 and increased to 15.00% per annum thereafter. The notes payable are unsecured and there are no covenants associated with these notes payable.
