Rumors of Apple automobile surface
Environmentalists, Apple fanboys and fangirls, and connoisseurs of electric cars, rejoice: the latest in innovation might literally be rolling around the corner within five years.
Apple is reportedly hoping to add a new flagship project to its list of phones and personal computers within five years: an electric car.
Although Apple has made no such official statement to the public revealing its intentions, Bloomberg cited several unidentified sources that claim to have knowledge of the project.
According to these sources, the team working on the electric car has around 200 employees including people from Tesla, car battery maker A123 Systems, and several other automobile makers and supply firms.
The project is reportedly under development near the Cupertino headquarters under the codename “Project Titan.” Rumors and unidentified sources disagree about the existence of self-driving technology and the actual car’s design but generally agree that Apple Vice President of Product Design Steve Zadesky is leading the project.
At this point, the Internet has publicized rumors galore. One particular rumor reported by the Wall Street Journal indicates that “according to people familiar with the matter […] Titan initially is working on the design of a vehicle that resembles a minivan.”
People should first be reminded that a company made famous by its innovative design would not stick to a minivan.
Currently, the details on the project remain highly ambiguous and unclear. Reputable news sources have been debating left, right, and center about the potential success of the electric car based on unnamed sources and facts created on the Internet.
Until the company officially comes out with more information about Project Titan, it might be prudent for Apple aficionados to look out for the Apple Watch, set to release in April.

![“I wasn't discouraged by some of the obstacles we faced. I learned a lot from the leadership. I found that different people need different ways of receiving feedback — you can't [just] tell them to do something and expect the best. [Some] people needed more incentive. A large part of my role was to figure out what worked for everyone and to figure out how to lead all these separate individuals as a team,” Suhana Bhandare (’26) said.](https://harkeraquila.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/SuhanaBhandare_JasmineHansra-1-1200x798.jpg)

It’s important pushing through that — getting around that brick wall, climbing over it or clawing through it,” Yash Sachdeva (’26) said.](https://harkeraquila.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/YashSachdeva_RamBatchu-copy-1200x1002.jpg)


















![“[Building nerf blasters] became this outlet of creativity for me that hasn't been matched by anything else. The process [of] making a build complete to your desire is such a painstakingly difficult process, but I've had to learn from [the skills needed from] soldering to proper painting. There's so many different options for everything, if you think about it, it exists. The best part is [that] if it doesn't exist, you can build it yourself," Ishaan Parate said.](https://harkeraquila.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/08/DSC_8149-900x604.jpg)
