"In a move that surprises absolutely no-one..."

Did anyone really expect anything to come of the Apple self-driving car project? Although they are a technology company, expanding into the auto industry doesn't seem very apple-y.

I still expect something to come of the project. It sounds like they are going more in a Cruise-like direction (only building the electronics, not the whole car) which makes a lot of sense.
They'll unveil the innovative, never-before seen self-driving car.

Naturally, the iCar will lack audio jacks and a cigarette lighter, to allows for a better form factor.

don't forget doors. How can you make something sleek and sexy with a door? Brakes will be installed in version 2.
Won't run on normal fuel. You need Apple Approved iPetrol from authorized dealers. Pre-Order now!
