Apple getting into electric cars hasn't gotten an official word on that yet. They are still trying to invent the technology for self driving electric cars, with a goal for 2019. They might just license the IP to the other car makers if they find they can't make the cars themselves.
Some states like Michigan have laws that if you sell cars in their state you have to make the car in their state. So Apple would have to build a factory in Michigan to sell cars there like all of the rest. Smart phones, tablets, computers don't have that requirement and can still be made in China.
About 6 years ago I tried to get money for what I called the iAuto device that ran Android and replaced a car stereo and did GPS and played music and videos and other stuff. But I couldn't get it crowdfunded. I figure if Apple can't make electronic cars, they'll make a device like the iAuto based in iOS that replaces a stereo in cars and runs apps and can even use smart cars to auto park and collision detection and other stuff.
