Apple Car: Latest Insights Unveiled

Rumors are circulating that tech giant Apple Inc. is venturing into the electric car realm, equipped with Level 2+ autonomy. The speculation points to a collaboration with premium electric vehicle manufacturer Lucid Motors, making waves as the potential game-changer of the decade. Notably, a series of mergers in the automotive sector has caught attention, with Honda and SONY teaming up to produce the AFEELA, a direct competitor to the Tesla Model S. Dive into the details below to catch up on the latest insights into the Apple Car.

EV Project Titan

If you're a tech-savvy millennial, the upcoming 'iCar' project, also known as 'Project Titan,' promises to be a technical marvel. Elon Musk himself acknowledged the cutting-edge technology behind 'Project Titan' during his BBC appearance. The vehicle is expected to feature a spacious cabin with a forward-facing seating arrangement, creating a social workspace. Each passenger will have access to multiple iPads mounted on the cabin walls, facilitating FaceTime and other conferencing tools. Additionally, innovative features like 'adjustable tinting windows' and a door-to-door extending dash are on the horizon.

Apple Car Delayed Until 2028

Although currently operating under the project name 'Titan,' the Apple Car is slated for a name change upon completion. However, as per Bloomberg reports, the anticipated launch has faced setbacks, pushing the release date from 2026 to 2028. Challenges in final prototype development and patent-related issues are cited as the primary reasons for the delay.

Level 2 Autonomy

Initially designed for Level 5 Autonomy, signifying a fully self-driving car, the Apple Car's autonomy features have been downgraded to "Level-2." This means the vehicle will incorporate limited Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) features, requiring the driver to remain alert and ready to take control of braking and steering when necessary.

Is Apple Partnering with Lucid Motors?

Hints from Apple suggest a potential collaboration with Lucid Motors, leveraging their expertise in the 'engine and battery pack' department. While Lucid Motors boasts top-notch EV technology, speculations about partnerships with KIA and Hyundai have surfaced and faded. The details remain elusive, adding an air of mystery to the Apple Car project.
