When a little more than a year ago rumors began to emerge that Apple would be developing its own smart car, many voices scoffed at such a project. The main reason? The fact that the company with the bitten apple did not have any experience in this industry. We know that the Apple Car could arrive approximately in the year 2020, but the experts assured that it would take Apple about ten yearss to catch up with the rest of the manufacturers in the market.
Points of view in the auto industry are beginning to change. The CEO of the German manufacturer Daimler has assured that «Apple is doing a good job with its vehicle«. At no point has Apple confirmed that it is developing a smart car, but the clues it is leaving are more than evident by now. The technology company has hired dozens of experts in the automotive industry.
The CEO of Daimler has confirmed that “companies specializing in technology must be taken more seriously, like Google and Apple, since they are doing their homework well. These have been his statements after a visit to Silicon Valley:
“Our impression is that these companies can do much more than we had originally imagined. And we also have to emphasize that they show great respect for our achievements. We had conversations with these companies, but I am not going to talk about their content. I will only highlight the fact of the spirit of innovation that exists in Silicon Valley.
