Apple has had some people talking for a long time now but now people are talking about something different.
In 2014, Project Titan was started at its Cupertino headquarters.
It was tasked with creating an electric.
Its now speculated that Apple will launch their car somewhere between 2023 and 2025.
Road Tests
In 2017, the Californian D.M.V.
granted Apple a permit.
They could test their autonomous cars on public roads.
It is also working on a project called PAIL which stands for Palo Alto to Infinite Loop.
This project will serve as an employee shuttle within the Silicon Valley area.
By 2015, things had changed and they had hired Mercedes Benz Research and Development executive Johann Junhwirth.
People whove worked for smaller companies such as Mission Motors and Andretti Autosport have also been hired.
This is probably done under the roof of a shell company called SixtyEight Research.
Cutting Costs
Apple also invested with Chinas equivalent of Uber, Didi Chuxing.
This makes sense because a ride hailing service would be very keen to cut down on costs.
There are reports that Quanta is supplying Apple with what are called Autonomous Driving Solutions.
It seems Apples is complex and multi-faceted and is Silicon Valleys equivalent of the Manhattan project.
Something very big and important is taking place but we will all have to wait and see what happens.
