Apple Is Once Again Eyeing the Smart Car Market
Early in February, rumor had it that Apple is once again eyeing the smart car market, both electric and self-driving. Improved batteries and new environment regulations might make smart cars a promising new business area. According to USA Today, the "iCar" is certain to be an electric vehicle costing over $40,000.

Automakers and tech companies have yet to solve the thorniest challenges associated with autonomous driving.
