Deep dives

Apple's iCar delay and missed opportunities

Apple's iCar project, dubbed Project Titan, has been delayed once again, with a new target launch date of 2028. The self-driving aspect of the car has been abandoned, and it will now feature advanced cruise control. This represents a missed opportunity for Apple, as the greatest cost in terms of the project's 10-year timeline and hundreds of millions of dollars spent is the missed opportunities the company could have pursued instead. They could have focused on manufacturing diversity, AI, or expanding into other industries. The delay raises questions about the strategic direction of the project and its ultimate value.
