“Shrouded in secrecy and speculation, Apple’s mysterious ‘Titan’ electric car project is believed to be in development at a top-secret facility hidden in plain sight, discovered by AppleInsider just minutes away from the company’s California headquarters,” Neil Hughes and Mikey Campbell report for AppleInsider.
“Whether or not the mythical ‘Apple Car’ ever becomes a real product, the company is tinkering away on a top-secret automotive project,” Hughes and Campbell report. “Sources familiar with the development of ‘Titan’ say it’s well beyond the concept stage, with serious work underway at a site located off of Apple’s Cupertino campus.”
“It is unclear if this secondary campus is ground zero for ‘Titan,'” Hughes and Campbell report. “But AppleInsider can confirm that Apple does indeed have a large presence at the location, and that numerous automotive-related renovations, including an ‘auto work area’ and a ‘repair garage,’ have been constructed on the premises.”

iPonder with $750+Billion you can tinker in the garage for quite some time 😳
The “top-secret hidden facility” apparently has an Apple logo on the front and lots of glass in the garage doors for curious folks to peek in.
Why bother to post an image like this? It is utterly ridiculous.
Sounds cool. Like a high tech James Bond SPECTER lear.
The text under the photo says it’s a poor render of an Apple garage. It’s not an actual photo.
Agree.. Specially including one of Marc Newsons worst designs.. The car !
It’s an “artists rendition” pulled out of the artist’s arse. It exists only in his rectal-cranially interpositioned but defenestrated viewpoint of the world.
These leaks could be “look what my left hand is doing” while they distract from something more imminent
