Apple’s long-rumored electric car might be delayed: Rumor

Apple’s foray into the electric cars world might be delayed again. Even though the Cupertino-based company has yet to acknowledge their car project, media outlets have reported on the rumors before. According to Bloomberg, the all-electric Apple car might be pushed into 2026 and could cost below $100,000. Furthermore, Apple is said to be still working on the design in a “pre-prototype” stage.

Bloomberg also reports that this Apple EV won’t be fully autonomous. Instead, drivers will alledgedly only be able to activate the self-driving features on highways, similar to the Level 2+ features in the BMW i7 or in the GM’s Super Cruise and Ford’s BlueCruise. Initially it was believed that Apple wanted to offer a vehicle with “Level 5” autonomy.

The rumormill further churns out that the Apple Car would use a technology system codenamed Denali powered by a processor that’s “about four of Apple’s highest-end Mac chips combined,” according to Bloomberg. The same outlet says that the chip is believed to have reached an advanced state of development.
