All the rumors assure that Apple will launch an electric and / or autonomous car in 2019-2020. At the moment, the project is called Project Titan, in what seems like a clear allusion to how big the project is. But how much would a car with the apple in the front cost? According Gene munster, an analyst at Piper Jaffray, the Apple Car would have a price that would be around $ 75.000, which would be about € 67.600 (unless the conversion was made 1 $ = 1 €).
Gene Munster gave an interview on the website applefanscar.com (yes, it exists) and said what many of us already knew, that «there will be a car (from Apple) that you can order in 2019-2020«, But it is a bit surprising that, according to the analyst, will not ship until 2021. This type of lag is something that we have already seen in some iPhones and, especially, in the Apple Watch Edition, a gold smartwatch that took months to be available. If you're right, early adopters will be able to have an Apple Car in their garage in about 5 years.
"The first Apple Cars will arrive in 2021"
Munster also says that Apple won't make its own carIf not, it will outsource its manufacture to another company. We cannot say that this statement is very revealing, since the Cupertino company does not manufacture practically any of its products itself. For example, the A9 and A9X processors in the iPhone 6s / Plus and iPad Pro respectively have been made by TSMC and Samsung, while the final assembly of the iPhone is usually the work of Foxconn.
At this point, it is important to mention that Munster is the analyst who has been saying for years that Apple is launching its own TVBy this he does not mean a small and relatively affordable set-top box, but a 55-65 inch TV that would surely have a prohibitive price and that I have not seen yet. If I have to act as an analyst and taking into account the price of some cars on the market, I would not bet on an Apple Car for a price lower than € 100.000. We will know who gets more of the two right in the next 5 years.
