The Apple Car has no technical existence, but it has been delayed, according to a latest report.
Looking at the dealing with Apple‘s AAPL ultra-secret car task said to be called Project Titan, technology website The Information revealed that Apple has actually postponed its vehicle to 2021. A number of rumors have actually claimed Apple had actually planned a 2020 launch for Apple Car, but The Information’s sources state that the project has actually encountered challenges, and that a person who had actually dealt with the Project Titan team verified Apple has actually pressed back its target launch from 2020 to 2021.
Over the last few years, reports have appeared stating Apple is dealing with an electric vehicle that could come with self-driving features. While the company itself hasn’t acknowledged those claims, Apple CEO Tim Cook has been coy when talk of an Apple Car has turned up, leaks have come quickly and furious from the Project Titan group, and Tesla CEO Elon Musk has explained Apple’s car job as the “worst-kept trick” in Silicon Valley. He’s even called Apple “Tesla’s Graveyard,” a location where Tesla engineers go when they can’t hack it at Musk’s company.
Experts, too, have actually chimed in, stating that Apple, which experienced its first profits decrease since the iPhone’s launch in 2007 last quarter, needs a major brand-new development. A vehicle, they suggest, would fit that mold.
However, establishing a vehicle is much different than making a brand-new mobile phone or computer, and it’s a totally brand-new industry for Apple. Apple has supposedly hired a numerous number of engineers with experience in vehicle technology and its chief of design, Jony Ive, has actually reportedly been researching on automobile design. That all comes prior to Apple packages electric automobile innovation, security standards, and all the other functions required to get an automobile on the road.
