Other new tools Google is bringing to Maps include special features designed for EV users using Google Built-in - car infotainment systems that include bundled Google services. This means you'll no longer need to be in navigation mode to see if your next turn is coming up or what your updated ETA is likely to be. Google is also making it easier than ever to check that you're still going in the right direction by bringing Glanceable Directions to route overviews and lock screens. Meanwhile, Google is expanding Indoor Live View to 1,000 new airports, train stations, and malls.

Search with Live View, the tool that allows you to use to navigate by holding up your phone and seeing information about surrounding businesses and landmarks immediately around you, will be available in new European locations in the coming months, including Barcelona, Madrid and Dublin. The company is also bringing some existing map features to new cities. It's one of several features helping Google continue to keep its mapping tools competitive in a field where Apple and others are snapping at its heels. Using advanced computer vision, the company has fused together billions of Street View and aerial images, before using a technology called neural radiance fields to transform them into richly detailed 3D representations. Along with improved language and search tools, Immersive View is one of the many features to emerge from Google's heavy investment in AI.
