Apple car hype
Apple’s momentum is setting the pace for other digital and electrical manufacturers. Designers and engineers work tirelessly to bring new ideas to life. Let’s peek behind the curtain to reveal a few concepts – a first preview of what’s to come.
The launch of the new Apple Car
The electric car is being prepared for release in 2024. It is not yet known for sure about the appearance and detailing of the model, as several options are being considered:
- A similarity to the Tesla;
- Apple Car;
- an electric car made by Toyota;
- autopilot or classic;
- Apple Car by Mercedes-Benz.
Each manufacturer has a unique signature and it is now difficult to predict the final result. Knowing Apple’s style suggests that innovative materials with exclusive design and advanced integrated technology will be chosen for the electric car.
Tesla or Magic Mouse – examples of the concept
The majority of experts agree that the Apple Car will appear in Magic Mouse and Tesla. The given idea will appeal to fans of streamlined forms, laconic body of black colour, matte surface, unusual headlights, glass roof, and absence of a bonnet. Work is also underway on a single-element electric motor with increased range. The car is likely to get a windshield patented by the company in late 2020, the feature of which is an alert if even a minor crack appears.
Concept hatchback
According to another version, the new product will have a futuristic, aerodynamic design with softened lines, streamlined forms and concealment of all visible details. The emphasis is on smart pretentiousness rather than functionality. The external resemblance to the Tesla is obvious. There is a suggestion that the electric car will not have a steering wheel, and will run on autopilot. For driver and passenger convenience, the car could get digital displays showing important information about the car, the ability to track news, answer calls, watch movies, control the temperature in the cabin, and adjust the seats.
Japanese footprint in the concept
It is possible that the production of the Apple Car will be entrusted to Toyota. In that case, the electric car will be styled in minimalist and luxury design. Expect shimmering colours, tiger-eye headlights and flowing lines, highly regarded by creative, communicative people. There may be a refinement and improvement of the model that was unveiled on YouTube about ten years ago. The unusual tyres, the glass body, the doors that open upwards and sideways and the car’s resemblance to a beetle attracted the attention of viewers.
Less plausible are rumours that the new car will take on the features of Mercedes-Benz.
Expectations and reality
The project’s strict secrecy makes it impossible to get to know the final version of the Apple Car before it is unveiled. It could be that the manufacturer is searching for the most suitable variants or refining the layout. One thing is certain – an Apple product cannot be of poor quality. After all, the company uses exclusively cutting-edge materials and invents non-standard and complex shapes with the introduction of a recognisable feature – LED lighting.
