Lithium Dreams: How The Apple iCar Could Crack The Automotive Industry.

Motor1 Apple iCar Imagined.

We are waiting for the electric car from Apple for so long that it is almost totally fading from the news flow these days. The counter-rumour that Apple is not really working on the electric iCar, but just on autonomous driving software was very effective as well.

Dear Tim Cook, just bring it on! Just send enough defibrillators to every HQ of all automakers in the world and announce that Apple is making the real electric iCar! Please have some mercy: they are literally choking on their own cancer hazard pollution "surprised" that it is really so bad, like 12 times above the limits even for the new diesel models. according to CNBC

And if you are not making it, let's all just move on and we can forget about Apple becoming the first Trillion Dollars Market Cap company. You can release another ten types of Apple Watch and double the size of the iPad - you will not get there. You need a new drive, a new market - like $4 Trillion transportation industry to crack.

You will not be able to buy Tesla anymore, Elon Musk has made it alone. Even we are developing our lithium projects without your billions already. Everything is in place: Lithium Technology, people are waiting for the best electric cars like Tesla Model 3 to buy and you have the CAPITAL. Enough to start making millions of the best electric cars only Apple can make and sell with your iconic brand. Stop sitting on your cash offshore, make a strategic alliance with Tesla and start building Lithium Gigafactories on every continent. Bring the prices of lithium batteries down to $100 per kWh fast. License the Tesla Model 3 powertrain and built your iCar around it. Make it with 200 miles range for $20k and save the world or charge twice and get to the Trillion Market Cap faster.

This article is the best compilation of all available information on Apple iCar I have seen. Great job, Greg Kable! You can find my personal history of waiting for the Apple Electric iCar on the links below. And I do hope, that the real Apple iCar will be looking much better! At least like imagined by Motor1 above. The most important new information for my followers - if it is true we can be very close to my millions of electric cars:

"Those who have held talks with the Apple president during the past 12 months, including executives from Audi, BMW, Fiat Chrysler, Ford, General Motors and Mercedes-Benz are under no illusion of the company’s intentions. They are convinced Cook has already given the go-ahead to the partly autonomous iCar and expect it will be launched by 2021 as a precursor to a fully autonomous successor model to be introduced around 2026 as regulatory conditions are altered to allow features such as fully automated parking.

Apple’s goal? An initial 500,000 sales annually, according to those that have met with Cook. That might not sound like much for a company that manages to shift some 230 million smartphones each year. However, it is an acceptable target for a company new to the automotive scene and 10 times what another one of California’s electric car start-ups, Tesla, managed in 2015. As a further point of reference, combined sales of the BMW i3 and i8 totalled just 29,500 last year."

Lithium Race: South Korea’s Battery Technology Expected To Be Used By Apple For Its Electric Car.

Are they making it or are they not? Rumours are running wild about Apple and its electric car and now I have another one this time from South Korea.

"We have another rumour swirling around Apple Electric Car. It is coming to change our world overnight - it is impossible to keep the lid on this kind of groundbreaking development for Apple forever. Tesla Model 3 now has more than 400,000 reservations in just two weeks and it was a total shock to the auto industry. Hot money is chasing the supply for EVs as now it is apparent that the future will be electric. Lithium is the magic metal at the very heart of rEVolution."

Lithium Race: Bottled Electricity - Does Apple Lease Former Pepsi Bottling Plant For Electric iCar?

"As you already know, that the Next Big Thing is based on the Miracle of Bottled Electricity. Lithium Technology allows us to store electricity: the most efficient form of energy known to us - in the very efficient way. Tesla Motors has demonstrated what it means in practice: acceleration of Porsche 911 and smooth silent drive for 300 miles on a single charge. Now cheaper lithium batteries change everything. In order to become the first $1 Trillion Market Cap company, Apple has to play Electric iCar right. People will pay a premium for Apple, but I was always advocating a strategic alliance with Tesla. Tesla has all technology in place, Apple has capital, huge brand and Foxconn cheap manufacturing base. Two last pieces to the puzzle: Foxconn is building its own electric cars plant in China for $800 million and Lithium Batteries Megafactory. Mysterious Foxconn electric car for $15k can be another groundbreaking development. In the end, the Tesla Model 3 can provide the best powertrain and almost all iPhones and iPads are made in China by Foxconn. Lithium is at the very heart of this Energy rEVolution. Stay tuned for our new mix tracks for the International Lithium launch party. Read more."

Lithium BOOM: Concept Video "More Than A Car - Apple Electric Car."

Apple is solidly on track to deliver Electric Car and it will ignite the mass market for electric cars overnight. International Lithium is building the vertically integrated lithium business with Ganfeng.

"We have another catalyst for our Lithium Universe. Elon Musk confirms the obvious to our industry, but magnified by BBC and his star power this message will reach far and beyond our very small community: now mainstream investors will be rushing to find how to play the Next Big Thing - mass market in Electric Cars. Next will be the official announcement from Apple about its Electric iCar - you just cannot hide it any more, Tim Cook, bring it on! Read more."

Future Of Building Lithium Supply Chains For Robots: ILC and Ganfeng J/Vs And The Largest Auto Market In The World In China.

"As we are discussing here, Lithium Technology will power us for the next 50 years and after that Robots. If you look into the real advance in the Silicon Valley these days it is not about just Cars being fully Electric and autonomous very soon. Silicon Valley giants like Apple, Google, Tesla, Amazon, Facebook, Twitter and Uber among others are going for the real change not only in the $10 Trillion market related to the automotive sector, but they are igniting the tectonic shift in our civilisation. Robots are coming. Read more."

Lithium Race To A $1 Trillion Dollar Market Cap: Electric iCar - Apple Registers Apple.car And Apple.auto.

Oscar Raymond from Macworld reports the latest confirmation that Apple is taking Electric iCar seriously and, as we have discussed before, we can hope that it is coming very soon to bring to Apple the status of the First Trillion Dollar Market Cap Company and to all of us mass market for electric Cars! They just have to play it right, everything else is ready for this jump - Lithium Technology is here.
