Apple targets car production by 2024, Reuters

 

Apple's car has been discussed several times before, but it did not get water. Apple's reputation as a maker of valuable electronics products could be ideal for entering the car market. However, Apple has never been so keen to take part in the fierce battles of conventional car manufacturers. But this time it may not be possible for the Cupertino-based hardware company to miss out on the fancy electric car market. Reuters says, this Apple car will be seen in 2024.

An exclusive news release from Reuters announced the arrival of the Apple Car for the first time on a specific date. The report claims that Apple's self-driving car will have a 'battery of unimaginable technology'. And for the LIDAR technology used in such cars, Apple has to resort to a third company. Monosell battery in this car will guarantee long life and distance. However, the report does not specify in detail how these proprietary technologies will be incorporated into this potential car.

Earlier, Huawei had asked the FCC to reconsider its decision. However, the company also rejected the application on Thursday. The FCC has since begun the process of removing China Telecom from US-based operations.

According to the BBC, the FCC has also instructed subsidies to allow small carriers to remove and replace Huawei parts. However, it will not be possible for the commission to provide such subsidy on its own without the consent of Congress.

FCC chairman Ajit Pai said Huawei has close ties with the Chinese military, intelligence, and the ruling Communist Party. There is communication at all levels of the organization, from the elementary class to the founder. Also, the concern about Huawei is not just speculation: independent researchers have identified multiple security vulnerabilities in Huawei devices and it is more insecure than other organizations.
