- Recently, Google announced AI-powered Live Lane Guidance for Google Maps, initially available on the Polestar 4 in the U.S. and rolling out in Sweden in the coming months.

- Google demonstrated the feature with a GIF video on its NewsFromGoogle account, showing audio and visual cues plus gentle on-screen nudges to signal when to merge.
- More than two billion people use Google Maps monthly, making the update meaningful, though its effectiveness in denser city driving remains uncertain and Polestar 4 availability limits immediate impact.
