Apple terminated its autonomous vehicle project months ago. Official authorities also confirmed that the project was cancelled. Here are the details…

months ago AppleIt was reported that the autonomous vehicle project named Titan was shelved. Mark Gurman, one of the most reliable sources, announced this development. According to new news from macReports, the California Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) also canceled the company’s autonomous vehicle testing permit. The news states that the DMV received confirmation from the Cupertino company that the permit was canceled on September 25, and that the permit was canceled as of September 27. Thus, the last nail was nailed in the coffin of the technology giant’s ten-year electric vehicle project.

This permit allowed Apple to use and test the autonomous vehicle on any public road in California. The company received this permission in 2017 and would have been active until April 30, 2025 if it had not been canceled. Apple has been using Lexus SUVs equipped with an array of sensors and cameras to test various autonomous driving technologies on the streets of California.

Apple purchased a testing area in Arizona through a shell company called Route 14 Investment Partners. Lexus SUV models were seen in this area. After the cancellation of the Titan project, activity in the test area was reset. According to industry sources, the technology giant is planning to dispose of the test site in Arizona and a few other locations it owns through different shell companies. Sources stated that the income from sales will be used in different projects, especially artificial intelligence.

October Xiaomi, which aims to reach a weekly delivery rate of 5,000 units in 2020, has taken important steps to increase its production capacity.

Thanks to smart production systems and automated processes, production efficiency has been significantly increased. In particular, the use of artificial intelligence-supported technologies has increased efficiency at every step in the production line, reduced labor costs and ensured stability in product quality. These innovations increase Xiaomi’s competitiveness in the market, strengthening its hand against giants such as Tesla.

Increasing production capacities and expanding its retail presence will play a critical role in achieving Xiaomi’s long-term goals in this market. Thus, Xiaomi will continue to become a strong and permanent player in the electric vehicle market.
