According to the technology website MakeTechEasier and Taiwan's Economic Daily, "and Taiwan auto parts manufacturers such as (Heda), BizLink-KY, Heqin (Heqin) and Futian (Tomita) have confirmed that Apple expects to launch the Apple Car, in September 2022 at least two years ahead of schedule," according to the technology website MakeTechEasier and Taiwan's Economic Daily.

"and Taiwan auto parts manufacturers such as (Heda), BizLink-KY, Heqin (Heqin) and Futian (Tomita) have confirmed that Apple expects to launch the Apple Car, in September 2022 at least two years ahead of schedule," according to the technology website MakeTechEasier and Taiwan's Economic Daily.

It is worth noting that there have been many new moves in auto parts factories in Taiwan recently. New auto parts factories are under construction, some existing factories are being relocated, and some existing factories are adding new production lines, and the supply chain says all these changes are for Apple cars.

While there are still many questions about the timing of Apple's car debut and whether Apple is considering launching a full car or a system on other cars, it is credible that Apple has ordered at least some parts from auto parts makers in Taiwan, which in itself is a good development.

It is reported that Apple has been developing self-driving electric cars for as long as other technology and car companies, dating back at least to 2015. Apple is rumored to have been working on Apple cars, and people familiar with the matter said at the time that Apple's car project was known as the "Titan project" (Project Titan).

Apple is even conducting road tests on Apple cars. However, the company is not testing a new self-driving car, but other cars equipped with Apple's self-driving system.

Apple CEO Tim Cook has previously said he thought it would be interesting to combine electric cars, self-driving cars and shared travel services. but it also leaves a question: will Apple's car be a private car or a shared car? Since all known tests of Apple cars are conducted on other cars, it is still unclear whether the Apple car project has shifted to developing a complete car, or just a self-driving system that will be carried out on other cars.
