@chrismessina Xiaomi has been doing it for years, building an electric scooter, then a go-kart in collaboration with Lamborghini, etc. For Apple, it would be their first electric vehicle.
@mightyalex Apple has been also making forays into the automotive software category with CarPlay and their recent customizations for Aston Martin and Porsche.
But you're right — Apple hasn't launched any public automotive hardware.
If you click on product images link at the end of the PR, you’ll be redirected to sharepoint! Sharepoint?! Why?
The car looks nice though
@orask what would you expect? It's not like Xiaomi is going to use Google Drive or Dropbox. 😜
@chrismessina It is too shortsighted to oppose China's policies with one hand and sponsor businesses paying taxes there with the other
