The United Kingdom’s The Guardian reports that the tech company is currently making an electric car, with help from the British government.

According to Carbuzz, the government has provided 174 million pounds ($246 million) for the tech company.

This is probably because this new venture is expected to create "over 500 jobs, mostly in engineering."

Dyson’s CEO, Max Conze, revealed this possibility in 2015 when he said, "like our friends in Cupertino (Apple) we are also unhealthily obsessed when it comes to taking apart our products to make them better."

Looks like the electric car business is the latest trend.
