Philip Houska The fact that Apple secretly working on a project related to the automotive industry, few people today contradict. Codenamed "Project Titan," Apple is said by many to be working on its own electric car, but it will now lose a major figure. Leaving Cupertino is Steve Zadesky, who was the head of the project and worked at Apple for sixteen years.
Zadesky began his career by participating in the development of iPods and iPhones, and in the last two years he has been very often associated with the alleged production of an electric car, and was even supposed to hold one of the leading positions. According to the information The Wall Street Journal however, his departure from the person associated with this issue has nothing to do with the development itself, but with personal reasons.
Zadesky was given permission in 1999 by the company, which he joined in 2014 after leaving Ford Motor Company, to deal with Apple's entry into the electric car market, where he planned to launch his electric car codenamed "Titan" in 2019.
However, based on information from people associated with this project, 2019 most likely meant only the fact that engineers will complete the final modifications on the expected product, so it could take another few years before the public would see the electric car in its full beauty and on sale.
According to insider sources, the team faced some problems regarding the bad distribution of the planned goals, but despite these inconveniences, Apple pushed them forward to ambitious deadlines that were not so easily achieved.
The company has never officially disclosed that it is working on an electric car, but the situation is that it is she hired a lot of veterans from the automotive industry and experts in both battery and self-driving technology, proves he's on to something. Even the CEO of the company, Tim Cook himself, on the occasion of the conference The Wall Street Journal held in October said that he he believes about the massive change in the industry, referring to the fact that self-driving technology is gaining momentum and becoming more important than ever.
