A while ago, it was rumored that Apple would be joining hands with Hyundai to build its much-anticipated Apple Car. Hyundai even confirmed its association with Apple. However, later there were reports denying the claim, stating that they are no more in talks to work on the rumored tech. But now, according to The Wall Street Journal,&nbsp;car maker Nissan is the latest automaker that might be the manufacturing partner of Apple.&nbsp;When asked about teaming up with Apple at a press conference, Nissan CEO, Makoto Uchida did not deny and said that Nissan “will be looking to work with companies that are knowledgeable, with good experience, through partnership and collaboration.”&nbsp;Also Read:&nbsp;<a href="https://www.mansworldindia.com/wheels/auto/a-walking-car-with-four-legs-hyundai-may-soon-make-this-possible/">A Walking Car with Four Legs?

However, earlier this month both the companies said they are not in talks with Apple Inc on developing autonomous vehicles.&nbsp;Also Read:&nbsp;<a href="https://www.mansworldindia.com/wheels/auto/hyundai-and-apple-to-manufacture-self-driving-cars/">Hyundai And Apple to Manufacture Self-Driving Cars</a>
