  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.

  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.

    Seattle, at least, already has Waymo cars in the "human-driven data gathering" mode that this article is announcing.

  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.

    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
