Those reports were taken seriously by both tech and car analysts because Apple has had car ambitions stretching back years—and because Apple is huge.

Wedbush analyst Dan Ives expects a formal announcement in 2021. “At this point it’s a matter of when, not if, Apple will enter the EV race over the next few years,” wrote Ives in a Monday research report. He assigns an 85% probability that Apple will make an announcement in three to six months and calls Hyundai and Volkswagen(VOW.Germany) his top two choices for an Apple partnership.</p>\n<p>Hyundai has its own modular EV platform. That’s one reason Ives likes Hyundai as a possibility, although other auto makers, including General Motors(GM), have similar approaches to electric-vehicle development. Volkswagen, for its part, has big EV ambitions. It is also a large shareholder of QuantumScape(QS), which is pioneering solid-state, lithium anode EV batteries. Those batteries promise lower cost, better safety, faster charging, and more range. Both things could make Volkswagen attractive to a partner.</p>\n<p>Ives covers mainly technology stocks. He covers Apple, rating shares outperform and has a $175 price target for shares. He also covers Telsa stock, rating shares Hold with a $950 price target for shares. Bernstein analyst Toni Sacconaghi, covers both as well. He rates Apple stock Hold and has a $132 price target for shares. He is more bearish on Tesla though. He believes an Apple car would make it harder for Tesla to meet its volume growth goal of 50% a year on average for the next few years. “The automotive market has historically been highly fragmented, with strong regional brands and preferences,” wrote Sacconaghi in a recent research report. “It is uncertain to us that amid massive new competition and entry, the market will ultimately become more consolidated and/or have one outsized winner.”</p>\n<p>That’s bad news for Tesla in his mind. He rates Tesla shares Sell and has a $180 price target for the stock, well below where shares are trading.</p>\n<p>Morgan Stanley analyst Adam Jonas covers cars and not Apple. But he is bullish on Tesla stock, rating shares Buy with an $880 price target. An Apple car entry could speed EV penetration, which would benefit all EV makers. In addition, Tesla “can iterate industry-leading battery technology for another four or five years before Apple may be on the scene,” wrote Jonas in a recent research report. “But at some point, today’s EV players must share the sandbox.”</p>\n<p>More EV players, however, aren’t enough to shake his confidence in Tesla stock. In addition to Tesla, Jonas recommends stock in GM and supplier Aptiv(APTV) to get exposure to the EV theme.</p>\n<p>RBC analyst Joe Spak also covers car stocks. He, like Jonas, rates GM and Aptiv stock Buy but rates Tesla stock Hold. The emergence of an Apple car, for Spak, highlights the need for car makers to adapt at faster rates. “Otherwise they could get left behind, whether it’s by Apple or someone else,” wrote Spak in a recent research report.</p>\n<p>Overall, Wall Street appears to believe few things about the iCar: It will be a premium self-driving product, and will be built by an existing auto maker. It is good news for Apple stock, but it might not be that disruptive to the existing industry—initial volumes will be small, and it will boost consumer interest in EVs. What’s more, news of an Apple car will drive incumbents to improve.
