Report: Apple and Volkswagen Could be Planning "iCar" Project

A VW-made iCar could be next in line from Apple's iLife world domination plans

Apple CEO Steve Jobs and Volkswagen's chief Martin Winterkorn met several days ago in California, and plan to meet for further discussions according to the Associated Press. The two companies are apparently working on “scores of ideas,” though none are set in stone.

Industry experts believe that Apple and VW may be working on the “iCar,” or some sort of vehicle concept that would incorporate a significant amount of media devices in its peripheral functionality.

Apple currently works with many automakers, including VW, to provide iPod connections as options for new vehicles. Cars with such connections can automatically interface with iPods to play the stored music through the vehicle’s interface and sound system.

Next: the iDick.
