Apple electric car will get unusual batteries

Apple's secret Titan project continues to be overgrown with details. According to unofficial data (and others are not yet), the computer giant is developing a small electric car, which intends to offer for short-term rental within its own network of car sharing.



The design of the city car is one of the biggest mysteries. On the Internet you can find only extraneous predictions of the appearance of the car, such as this.

Apple has signed a secret agreement with a South Korean battery developer. MacRumors claims that this may well be a small startup Orange Power, interesting for its project of hollow lithium-ion cells. According to ETNews, this design improves ventilation and eliminates the need for a complex and heavy cooling system.



In the model, much attention will be paid to the convenience and speed of charging the traction battery (we would not exclude the wireless option).

The company intends to build a car with broad integration into the network. Among other things, a group of specialists assembled by Apple will work on the issue of autonomous driving. However, the autopilot will not appear on the first version of the car. It is known that the new product will be produced by the Austrian contract manufacturer Magna Steyr. However, such details will emerge a lot, because with the completion of the project, the Americans do not intend to hurry. According to the latest information, the release of the serial version of the electric car Apple shifted from 2019-2020 to 2021.
