TL;DR
- Google is rolling out the ability to change your Google Maps driving avatar directly from the Android Auto dashboard.
- The new “Driving avatar” option lets you choose a vehicle icon and change its color without reaching for your phone.
- We’ve spotted the feature on two devices running Android Auto 17.8.163744 and Google Maps 26.38.01.
Google is finally rolling out one of the small but useful Google Maps changes we first spotted earlier this year.
