Keep in mind that these are ALL HIGHLY SPECULATIVE articles with ABSOLUTELY NOTHING from Apple in which they confirm this in the least. AND ... they won’t either, because Apple doesn’t do that with any of their projects they are working on.
ALSO ... whatever it is that Apple is working on, they’ve said before that for every “YES” (okaying final production for something) they have 1,000 “NOs”!!
I wouldn’t depend on any outside article which tries to speculate that Apple is making a car ... :-) ...
