All these inter-firm movements only confirm one thing. The autonomous car project becomes more and more concrete at Apple. Even though it has been mentioned for years, we seem to be entering a decisive phase.

Finally, the icing on the cake, Christopher Moore left Tesla under very difficult conditions. Indeed, the manager withdrew following his testimony before the California Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV). In the latter, he explained that Elon Musk’s statements regarding his self-driving cars “did not correspond to reality”. Atmosphere.
