Apple Expected to 'Share Information' on Apple Car in Coming Months, Analyst Says
Apple can be expected to shed some light on its highly secretive internal project called "Project Titan," a codename for its self-driving car sometime in the next 3-6 months, according to Wedbush analyst Dan Ives.
Ives made the comments during a segment on CNBC Television, in which he reiterated Wedbush's belief that Apple will not actually release a consumer car until at least 2024. Ives says that even with a release years out, the company will need to release "some information" to "lay the groundwork for an Apple Car." Ives believes that Apple will open up publicly about its future car ambitions sometime this summer.
When pressed on the timeframe, Ives says that Apple needs to "find the partners" for its self-driving car, which
concides with reports that the tech giant has been in talks to partner with several car manufacturers for the production of Apple Car.
Apple has reportedly been working on a self-driving car for the past number of years, and a flurry of reports in the past few months have further cemented the company's rumored car ambitions. The Apple Car, which Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo says will not be released until at least 2023, is expected to be produced and manufactured by a third-party contractor but remain an Apple-branded product.
More recently, a report out of The Korea Times suggests that Apple is "very near" to signing a deal with LG and Magna to build the Apple Car.
