Android Auto is about to change the way you drive: 3D Google Maps, redesigned interface, video support, Gemini and more

Android Auto update.

Android Auto is about to see its biggest makeover in years, as the Android Show: Google I/O Edition teases some impressive features. Not only is the interface getting an overhaul courtesy of Google’s Material 3 Expressive design, but it’s also bringing Gemini’s task automation features to the car.

Your driving experience is going to change tremendously with this update, and it gets even better for cars with Google built-in. That’s because apps like Gemini and Google Maps are going to be deeply integrated into the vehicle’s hardware. Soon enough, Gemini will be able to tell you exactly what’s up with that warning indicator light on your dashboard — or perhaps, be used to access climate controls.
