Apple scraps plans to develop self-driving electric car | What was ‘Project Titan’ all about?
After working on it for 10 years, Apple has decided to cancel its plans to build electric vehicles (EV) just when China’s Xiaomi showcased its Su7 at the mobile world congress in Barcelona. What was reportedly known as the Special Projects Group as part of its chief executive Tim Cook’s Project Titan, will not see the light of day even though apple has never publicly acknowledged the project. One person happy with the decision is rival EV maker, Tesla CEO Elon Musk who reacted to a post about this development with a a salute emoticon and a cigarette.
