The ZEAKER Waymo vehicle has a massive windshield and front dash area. There are these two little black kind of looking glossy little orbs that are on either side. And they're the air where the airbags are stored because there's no steering wheel. The other interesting thing was that you could add a steering wheel if you wanted, which is important for FMVSS regulations. To me, like I see a lot of pragmatism in the design of this vehicle.
The crew was just back together for a week of car shows and conferences in Los Angeles, where they witnessed and discussed the very latest in mobility technology. On this week's episode they discuss it all, from the new Waymo/Zeekr robotaxi and Toyota's sleek new Prius to a retrofuturist Hyundai concept, an electric Fiat and much more.
