Apple Electric Car | According to Rumours, “Project Titan” has moved behind the scenes. Apple is said to be looking to build its own electric and autonomous car, equipped with in-house battery technology, which would offer a greater range and more safety.
The Apple Electric Car is still on track and could become a reality in the years to come. In any case, this is what the Reuters press agency reports this evening, which was able to obtain exclusive information about the “Titan project”, initiated in 2014.
According to Reuter’s informants, Apple would have returned to its initial project, namely to design a complete electric and autonomous car, after having thought for a time of content to create an autonomous driving system that it would have supplied to other manufacturers.
According to these anonymous sources, Apple would call on a partner – to date unknown – to assemble the Apple electric car, which would avoid costly investments.

It would also have formed partnerships with third-party companies to produce certain elements, such as Lidar, which allow an autonomous car to map its environment in 3D. However, the machine would benefit from Apple’s expertise in Lidar, and could also embed sensors derived from those already fitted to high-end iPhones and iPads.
The main innovation of this vehicle would lie in its battery technology, whose “single-cell” design would save significant space. Apple thus largely hopes to increase the autonomy of its vehicle. In addition, it would be based on lithium-iron-phosphate technology, which is safer than the traditional lithium-ion used in our smartphones.

Reuters would like to point out that Apple’s plans could (still) change. It could be that the firm finally decides not to market a car in its name, to supply its system to a traditional manufacturer. In addition, possible problems posed by the pandemic could postpone vehicle production to at least 2024.
