The feature at the time of writing was available on Google Maps for iOS (yes, yes, we appreciate the irony), so if you have got an updated version of the app on your iPad or iPhone, this is how you can make your navigation experience more, well, vehicular:
As simple as that. We would have loved to have more vehicle options in the coming days, as well as more color options. And some sounds would not harm the cause either although they might be distracting. But all said and done, we love the vehicular touch that Google Maps has got. We so hope it comes to Android soon. You can download Google Maps for iOS from the iTunes App Store. It still costs nothing.
