Why it matters
The INDI One was a start-up's attempt at a five-seat electric crossover built around an in-car computer that its makers called a supercomputer. It reached the stage of a working prototype shown in 2022 at a Foxconn plant, which was to build prototypes and possibly mass-produce it.

02Production & history
Production
Every figure says what it counts.
No production figures recorded yet.
History
INDI EV, based in Southern California, announced the car in 2021 with a planned 95 kWh battery, all-wheel drive and a stated starting price of about 45,000 dollars. The design was led by Andre Hudson. In October 2022 INDI EV and Foxconn revealed the INDI One at Foxconn's Lordstown plant, under a memorandum on prototype building and possible contract manufacturing.
A planned stock-market merger was ended in June 2023, and in October 2023 the company filed for Chapter 11 protection. The cached reports give no production run.
