Apple car announced for 2019

Apple started with a basic computer and went from the iPod, to the iPhone, now the iCar? Apple announced that they plan to release their first car in 2019, according to a report fromThe Wall Street Journal’s Daisuke Wakabayashi.

The group of people working on the car is called Project Titan, which consists of 600 people, and Apple plans to boot that number to triple in due time. According to The Wall Street Journal the executives in Apple are calling this a “committed project”

Apple is building a car from scratch and that is obviously no easy task so the 2019 release date is subject to change. Rumors are that the car will be able to operate without a driver but that is also unlikely. The self-automated car is a new technology and Apple does not want their first car to be one that operates on its own.

Back in August, The Guardian reported that Apple would start seeking a testing facility for testing autonomous vehicles and in February they plan on developing their own electric car as well.
