Apple and Hyundai plan to make Apple Car a driverless car, according to CNBC

Media such as CNBC take for granted the association between Apple and Hyundai for the manufacture of Apple Car and their plans are beginning to be known.

During the last two months, news has exploded about Apple’s plans to reach the automotive sector. If your intention was known for a long time, the fact that it seems that you have already formalized plans with a large manufacturer serves to think that this is not too distant an ambition.

Apple wants to enter the sector, but building an assembly and distribution chain is a bet that requires too much investment at a structural level, which is why it seems to have found in Hyundai a company to work with after formalizing the great agreement that will bring the one that for now It is known as Apple Car, according to CNBC.

A few days ago, this collaboration that would be carried out by the Kia Motors brand, belonging to Hyundai, was already taken for granted, and now we are beginning to know what this may mean. First of all, the Apple Car would be manufactured in Georgia, United States.

Another aspect that has attracted special attention is that some sources have informed CNBC that ” Apple Cars  will not be designed to have a driver .” This would mean that at first they would surely be used for transport and distribution, they would not be focused on individuals. In addition to being last kilometer vehicles, according to 9TO5Mac.

Who knows if a second step would also work on transforming them into autonomous taxis, but the legislation that still prohibits this type of vehicle and the problems and delays in implementing a technology on which much of Tesla’s promotion is based is well known. , but it is never fully autonomous.

As for launch dates, they are talking about at least 3 or 4 years of development, so we could present ourselves in 2025 before seeing the Apple Cars circulate, this would be about 10 years after the plans of the company began to sound. company.

There are many doubts to be resolved, such as whether Apple will work with more manufacturers, if your car will be part of the Kia Motors line or will it be a start from scratch or the ambitions that exist to reach the international market. Surely, we will soon clear the doubts, as soon as Apple and Hyundai release a statement that transforms the rumors into certainties.
