KIA battery not that great. Even if it is not competing with TSLA, Apple needs a good battery without which it is suicide as no one come forward to buy or lease.
Apple sales are not for brand, but for quality and reliability

Why do you think theyâd use Kia battery? The article specifically says Apple will select the hardware and software. All Kia would do is assemble the car similar to how Foxconn assembles the iPhone.

let Apple make its own car.
Sound familiar. Heard similar from BlackBerry CEOs, handset manufacturers, Swiss watch makers, âŚ
As reported by Reuters today, Volkswagen Group CEO Herbert Diess said that heâs ânot afraidâ of an ââApple Carââ and that Apple will not be able to overtake the $2 trillion automobile industry overnight.
Why does he need to comment on a rumor? Does it mean he know Apple will be making an Apple Car? Is he afraid of TSLA? Not afraid too? Why does he think Apple Car has the potential to overtake the $2T auto industry? eventually? Does it mean he knows quite a bit of details about the Apple car?
BUY AAPL!!!
Dinosaurs like VW donât know anything about software. They themselves said so. At least American car firms can tap on SV expertise. European car firms are gonna be roadkills.

The best thing about Musk is he slayed the German invincibility myth. Or course Toyota already owns the durability title
Germans made boat load of money from Elon. and convinced Elon to built the most expensive auto plant from start. It further reinforces confidence in German engineering.

Elon is deeply impressed with German engineering. Infact this whole Tesla is German creation once you look at history of Panasonic Europe R&D, later MB shares and whole production engineering⌠Elon is building relationships where ever German engineering Influence.
he is not stupid. he already know who can build complex engineering projects that can seemlesly integrate mechanical engineering power of Germany.
Elon next step will be Russia if he get some positive response. hype will continue.

The time to enter the AV market is now.
The electric-vehicle sector is âentering a golden ageâ as factors like battery technology, regulatory incentives and tax credits, and more affordable models create âa perfect storm for demand,â Ives said in a note on Monday.
Ives speculated that Apple could strike a strategic partnership with Hyundai, Tesla, Ford, Nio, or Volkswagen.
The top two choices, according to Ives, are Hyundai and Volkswagen. Hyundai has âhugeâ production capabilities thanks to its proprietary Electric Global Modular Platform, and its robotic assembly design could fit well with Appleâs software and autonomous integration capabilities, Ives said.
Volkswagenâs so-called modular electric drive matrix âis a next generation design framework that would allow easy integration of new models from the likes of Apple,â Ives said. Volkswagen is also invested in QuantumScape, which could develop a differentiated battery pack for electric vehicles with its solid-state battery technology, the note said.
âŚcould lead to a bull-case scenario in which shares of Apple surge 66%, to $225.
