Hyundai Denies Involvement in Apple Car Development

After months of rumors of Apple’s alliance with the Hyundai Motor Group for the development of the Apple Car, the Korean automotive giant has finally confirmed that neither Hyundai nor Kia have any part in it.

A report from early January had stated that the Hyundai Motor Group was in talks with a tech-firm based in Cupertino for a potential partnership in the development of the Apple Car. Without divulging the names of its potential partners, the Hyundai Motor Group had then redacted its statement, claiming that it is currently in talks with ‘multiple firms’ with the interest of perfecting autonomous driving technology.
