The company's investors Apple asked to buy Tesla, one of the most popular car manufacturers in the USA, during the general meeting of shareholders, which took place yesterday. At least one of the company's shareholders suggested this idea yesterday, Tim Cook being asked if Apple intends to buy Tesla in the near future or not. Responding, Tim Cook spoke about the CarPlay system and the more than 40 car models on which it is available or will be available in the coming years, Apple concluding partnerships with many car manufacturers.
Given that his answer was evasive, Tim Cook was asked again about Apple's plans vis-à-vis Tesla, and this time the Apple CEO joked that he didn't know how to give another no - answer to the question. Practically, Tim Cook did not say that Apple will not buy Tesla now or in the future, but he just avoided giving a clear answer to the question, so a possible acquisition is being analyzed in Cupertino. Whether Apple will do it or not remains to be seen, but if it buys a car manufacturer, then it will have to pay over 8 billion dollars for it.
