TL;DR Summary

Google announced a sweeping Maps update featuring Immersive Navigation, a new 3D driving view that renders buildings, streets, and terrain with smart zooms and lane guidance to reduce guesswork; Gemini handles the spatial understanding behind the feature, while 'Ask Maps' adds an on-map AI assistant for finding places. The update also highlights entrances and nearby parking, supports hands-free navigation, and is rolling out today to eligible Android and iOS devices in the US with CarPlay/Android Auto expansion coming later, marking Google Maps' biggest navigation upgrade in a decade.
