It's no longer a secret: Apple is preparing its own smart car. At best it will be autonomous and electric, at worstit would only be a software interfaceto theCarPlaythat other manufacturers would have the freedom to appropriate. And if the rumors shared here and there by various analysts try to teach us more about the beast, the patents filed by its manufacturer are much more credible.
Of course, it is impossible to know whether Apple will actually market the technologies it records to avoid plagiarism. But basing yourself on these drawings still allows you to get an idea of what the automobile could possibly look like. To be clear, Vanarama, a kind of Drivy of leasing, has created a rather striking concept of the car...

Design
As you can see in these images, we recognize curves quite close to those of the Cybertruck pickup unveiled by Tesla about two years ago, although very relative if we compare them to the masterpieces that can be other Apple products like the iMac or the iPad Pro. At the front, we find an imposing filtration grid reminiscent of certain German models, while the knob logo is obviously affixed on each side.
The door handles, for their part, are inspired by the buttons installed on the side of certain mobile devices from Cupertino, while the white color appears to be directly inspired by that of the iPhone 4. Inside, the cabin is also very minimalist with a particularly futuristic steering wheel and an XXL on-board screen displaying all the essential information for navigation.

Connectivity
Obviously, this little car has all the apps useful to the driver on the road including widgets to personalize (like on iOS 15), the phone to make calls, messages or even the Apple Music catalog. The seat controls can also be controlled from this interface. Finally, the voice assistant Siri is also there to call on the system orally, so as to less distract the driver.
How much would you be willing to pay for such a vehicle, if it really existed?
