The Apple car rumor gained some legs this week with a report that brings some interesting new insight. Though a bit shy on verifiable details — it cites unnamed people familiar with Apple’s plans and vaguely refers to people inside Apple — the report suggests the company will triple its current 600-person team to 1,800 people as it ramps up its car development effort, code-named “Titan.” Previous Apple car reports have linked Apple’s hiring of automobile experts to Titan, with some assuming Apple even poached Tesla employees.
I agree with your assessment and logic. I keep hearing the "other side" argument and can see it, but Apple does have a history of marching to a different drummer. And while I doubt very much that I would ever buy an Apple car (or Google car or Tesla) I am far from the target buyer.
And one of the coolest parts of Apple making an "iCar" (if we can name it!!) is to listen to the Apple haters while they come up with yet another snide comment about the Apple lovers!
