Apple electrified car project
Apple electrical car project
The Apple electrified car project, codenamed “Titan”, [1] is an electrified car project allegedly undergoing research and development by Apple Inc. [Two] To date, Apple has yet to comment on any plans to make an electrified car.
It is rumored a substantial number of Apple employees are working on this project. [Three] [Four] [Five]
The project was rumored to be approved by Apple CEO Tim Cook in late two thousand fourteen and assigned to Vice President Steve Zadesky, a former Ford engineer as project in-charge. [6] In January 2016, Steve Zadesky was reported to be leaving Apple for individual reasons after sixteen years. [7] [8] For the project, Apple was rumored to have hired Johann Jungwirth, the former-president and chief executive of Mercedes-Benz Research and Development North America (Jungwirth is now working for Volkswagen Group), [9] as well as at least one transmission engineer. [Ten] [11] [12] [13]
Apple co-founder and CEO Steve Jobs had plans to design and build a car, according to Apple board member and J.Squad Group CEO Mickey Drexler, who said that discussions about the concept surfaced around the time that Tesla Motors debuted its very first car. [14] Former Apple iPod Senior VP Tony Fadell confirmed that Steve Jobs was interested in an Apple car back in 2008, shortly after the original iPhone was introduced. [15]
Reports indicate that the company has been suggesting incentives to Tesla employees to join Apple. [16] The Wall Street Journal reports that the product would resemble more of a minivan than a car, [Three] and The Sydney Morning Herald says that production could embark as soon as 2020. [17]

2015 Edit
In May 2015, Apple investor tycoon Carl Icahn stated that he believed the rumors that said Apple would inject the automobile market in 2020, and that logically Apple would view this car as “the ultimate mobile device”. [Legitimate] [Nineteen]
In August 2015, The Guardian reported that Apple were meeting with officials from GoMentum Station, [Two] a testing ground for connected and autonomous vehicles at the former Concord Naval Weapons Station in Concord, California. [20]
In September 2015, there were reports that Apple were meeting with self-driving car experts from the California Department of Motor Vehicles. [21] [22] [23] [24]
According to The Wall Street Journal, it will be a battery electrified vehicle, originally lacking total autonomous driving capability, with a possible unveiling around 2019. [25] [26] [27]
In October 2015, at The Wall Street Journal ‘ s WSJDLive conference at The Montage resort in Laguna Beach, California, Apple CEO Tim Cook stated about the car industry that: “It would seem like there will be massive switch in that industry, massive switch. You may not agree with that. That’s what I think. “We’ll see what we do in the future. I do think that the industry is at an inflection point for massive switch.” Cook enumerated ways that the modern descendants of the Ford Model T would be shaken to the very chassis—the growing importance of software in the car of the future, the rise of autonomous vehicles, and the shift from an internal combustion engine to electrification. [28]
In November 2015, various websites reported that suspected Apple front SixtyEight Research had attended an auto bod conference in Europe. [29]
Also in November 2015, after unknown EV startup Faraday Future announced a $1 billion U.S. factory project, [30] some speculated that it might actually be a front for Apple’s secret car project. [31] [32]
2016 Edit
In 2016, Tesla Motors CEO Elon Musk stated that Apple will very likely make a compelling electrified car: “It’s pretty hard to hide something if you hire over a thousand engineers to do it” [33]
In May 2016, there were reports indicating Apple was interested in electrical car charging stations. [34]
On July 29, 2016, Bloomberg Technology reported that Apple had hired Dan Dodge, the founder and former chief executive officer of QNX, BlackBerry Ltd.’s automotive software division. According to Bloomberg, Dodge’s hiring heralds a shift in emphasis at Apple’s Project Titan, in which the company will give very first priority to creating software for autonomous vehicles. However, the story said that Apple will proceed to develop a vehicle of its own. [35]
On September 9, two thousand sixteen The Fresh York Times reported dozens of layoffs in an effort to reboot. [36]
2017 Edit
After a period of no fresh reports, car project news flared up again in mid-April, 2017, as word spread that Apple joined a host of other companies (some widely known, others obscure) permitted to test autonomous vehicles on California roads. [37]
In mid-August, various sources reported that the car project was focusing on autonomous systems, now expected to test its technology in the real world using a company-operated inter-campus shuttle service inbetween the main Infinite Loop campus in Cupertino and various Silicon Valley offices, including the fresh Apple Park.

2017 Edit
After a period of no fresh reports, car project news flared up again in mid-April, 2017, as word spread that Apple joined a host of other companies (some widely known, others obscure) permitted to test autonomous vehicles on California roads. [37]
In mid-August, various sources reported that the car project was focusing on autonomous systems, now expected to test its technology in the real world using a company-operated inter-campus shuttle service inbetween the main Infinite Loop campus in Cupertino and various Silicon Valley offices, including the fresh Apple Park.

Apple electrical car project
Apple electrified car project
The Apple electrified car project, codenamed “Titan”, [1] is an electrical car project allegedly undergoing research and development by Apple Inc. [Two] To date, Apple has yet to comment on any plans to make an electrified car.
It is rumored a substantial number of Apple employees are working on this project. [Three] [Four] [Five]
The project was rumored to be approved by Apple CEO Tim Cook in late two thousand fourteen and assigned to Vice President Steve Zadesky, a former Ford engineer as project in-charge. [6] In January 2016, Steve Zadesky was reported to be leaving Apple for individual reasons after sixteen years. [7] [8] For the project, Apple was rumored to have hired Johann Jungwirth, the former-president and chief executive of Mercedes-Benz Research and Development North America (Jungwirth is now working for Volkswagen Group), [9] as well as at least one transmission engineer. [Ten] [11] [12] [13]
Apple co-founder and CEO Steve Jobs had plans to design and build a car, according to Apple board member and J.Team Group CEO Mickey Drexler, who said that discussions about the concept surfaced around the time that Tesla Motors debuted its very first car. [14] Former Apple iPod Senior VP Tony Fadell confirmed that Steve Jobs was interested in an Apple car back in 2008, shortly after the original iPhone was introduced. [15]
Reports indicate that the company has been suggesting incentives to Tesla employees to join Apple. [16] The Wall Street Journal reports that the product would resemble more of a minivan than a car, [Three] and The Sydney Morning Herald says that production could begin as soon as 2020. [17]

In May 2015, Apple investor tycoon Carl Icahn stated that he believed the rumors that said Apple would inject the automobile market in 2020, and that logically Apple would view this car as “the ultimate mobile device”. [Legal] [Nineteen]
In August 2015, The Guardian reported that Apple were meeting with officials from GoMentum Station, [Two] a testing ground for connected and autonomous vehicles at the former Concord Naval Weapons Station in Concord, California. [20]
In September 2015, there were reports that Apple were meeting with self-driving car experts from the California Department of Motor Vehicles. [21] [22] [23] [24]
According to The Wall Street Journal, it will be a battery electrical vehicle, primarily lacking utter autonomous driving capability, with a possible unveiling around 2019. [25] [26] [27]
In October 2015, at The Wall Street Journal ‘ s WSJDLive conference at The Montage resort in Laguna Beach, California, Apple CEO Tim Cook stated about the car industry that: “It would seem like there will be massive switch in that industry, massive switch. You may not agree with that. That’s what I think. “We’ll see what we do in the future. I do think that the industry is at an inflection point for massive switch.” Cook enumerated ways that the modern descendants of the Ford Model T would be shaken to the very chassis—the growing importance of software in the car of the future, the rise of autonomous vehicles, and the shift from an internal combustion engine to electrification.
