According toBloomberg, a magazine from the American East Coast often considered rather reliable on the subject, the Apple Car would be far from potential commercialization. In fact, Cupertino has still not selected the service provider who will assemble its intelligent vehicle. This is, to date, still not official although a lot of unofficial information about it has been coming for several months.
Among them, a collaboration with the South Korean equipment manufacturerHyundainotably made the headlines. But relations between the manufacturer and Tim Cook's firm have since deteriorated,as we had already been able to report a few weeks ago.
Betting on the competition
Among the potential reasons for this distance,Bloombergcites in particular exchanges between Apple andother brandsautomobiles. The names of the main interested parties, for their part, remain confidential and are not mentioned in the source's article. However, we can probably already disqualify Ford, which is working with Uber on its own alternative, or even Toyota for its part rather close to Waymo.
It also seems that the very management of Hyundai and Kia (the latter partly belongs to the first) are fighting over the supposed Apple Car contract. However, if the press knows it, then it is possible that it has also reached the ears of the teams ofTim Cook, who carefully avoids the subject.
