However, a well-known Apple analyst has now predicted that the company will indeed be making a car which […]

Talk about adding fuel to the fire. There have been endless rumors about Apple working on an electric car and now a report from a reputable publication claims that Apple and British supercar maker McLaren are actually in talks for a possible acquisition. There’s really only one reason why Apple would acquire McLaren and that would be to help out with its ambitions to become a car company, it’s not […]

According to earlier rumors, Apple is said to be buying/renting buildings that are related to Project Titan, which for those unfamiliar is Apple’s attempt at an electric/self-driving car. The project also appears to be well underway because we had also heard reports of hardware prototypes being built.
There have been several Apple Car rumors lately, with one of them suggesting that Apple might have bought up several buildings in which further research and development on the car will be conducted at. There was also a recent report that revealed that Apple might just have poached another Tesla executive.
A report from last year suggested that BMW and Apple could be in talks about the rumored Apple Car, and it seems that Daimler was part of those talks too. Given that Apple has no experience whatsoever when it comes to manufacturing cars, we suppose it’s not surprising that Apple could be seeking a carmaker to help them build the vehicle.
Rumors have been circulating for the past few months that Apple is consistently poaching employees from Tesla to get more human resources for its car project.

This high-profile hire comes merely months after the head of Apple’s car project Steve […]
