Germany's Volkswagen is not concerned by any Apple electric car

FRANKFURT (Reuters) - Germany's Volkswagen isn't worried by any Apple plans for a traveler vehicle that could incorporate the iPhone producer's battery innovation, its CEO Herbert Diess said.


Reuters revealed in December that Apple may have sufficiently advanced to construct a vehicle for mass business sectors by 2024, helped by cost cuts in battery innovation.


"The vehicle business is certainly not a commonplace tech-area that you could take over at a solitary stroke," Diess was cited as saying a meeting with Frankfurter Allgemeine Sonntagszeitung.


"Apple won't deal with that short-term," he added.


While Apple's arrangements are not public, Diess said its aims as such were "consistent" in light of the fact that the organization had aptitude in batteries, programming and plan, and that it had profound pockets to expand on these abilities.


"All things considered, we are not apprehensive," he said.


Volkswagen plans to create programming required for independent vehicles in-house to guarantee it can contend with tech firms in the field of electric vehicle information.
