Does anyone know when the Geely Zeeker and Hyundai Ioniq5 will be ready? I know the Zeeker is doing road testing already. I’m not sure if the ioniq5 is doing road testing yet. With all of these new cities being announced they must be getting close.
Do Waymo cars have different "personalities" in different cities? It occurred to me that drives in different places drive differently and maybe the cars adapt.
Is Detroit the first Waymo city that sees more than a negligible amount of snow? It will be interesting to see Waymos snowy road debut.
Waymo was doing tests in NYC earlier this fall but it looks like there are legal difficulties to getting actual approval in New York: https://www.thecity.nyc/2025/09/09/waymo-driverless-cars-nyc...

Lol I hope google using the ioniq5 will get the whole iccu issue some attention.
Yes! Very excited, anyone know when it's coming to Portland and Seattle?
Seattle, at least, already has Waymo cars in the "human-driven data gathering" mode that this article is announcing.

I have noticed them change driving style over time in SF, so I would imagine they would adjust to a city over time as well
Yes, it's trained in part on local driver data
