Apple initially kickstarted its Project Titan back in 2014 and intended on entering the auto industry with its innovation of advanced fleets of vehicles. ‘The car is the ultimate mobile device, isn’t it?’ Apple’s COO Jeff Williams had said in 2015.
The company has neither acknowledged nor denied its secret car project and the rumours surrounding it. However, according to reports the company will decide the future plans of its self-driving project called Project Titan by late 2017.
