Check out this google car that can talk to it's owner
For generations, tech companies like Google have been incorporating their technology in vehicles, but with this new partnership, drivers would be able to drive around inside a Google-branded vehicle for the very first time.
Fiat recently introduced the latest limited version Fiat 500 "Hey Google" family of vehicles, which include Google Assistant technology that allows users to connect with their cars remotely, as well as Google logos and design features on the outside and inside of the vehicles.
On Wednesday, Stellantis, the Italian automaker, revealed the partnership with Google in a press statement touting three new limited edition Fiat 500s-the Fiat 500, the 500X crossover, and the 500L multi-purpose cars, as "the intersection between Google technology and coolness."
The three vehicles, which vary in size from the two-door subcompact Fiat 500 to the four-door crossover SUV Fiat 500X, are all loaded with Google technology.
On the control panels of the cars is a 7-inch touchscreen with Google Assistant installed in. Users can now sync to their car's dashboard using Google Assistant on their smartphones or the Google Nest Hub.
According to Fiat and Google, new vehicle owners will be able to communicate with their cars remotely. “Just say the words ‘Hey Google, ask My Fiat...' anywhere you are, even on the sofa at home, to check out, for example, where the car was parked; how much fuel is present, How many [miles] have we traveled in the day; where is the closest approved workshop,” Fiat says in a public statement.
Drivers may also ask Google Assistant to remind them to shut the vehicle doors or trunk, according to the company.
Aside from the technology, the Fiat 500 "Hey Google" cars all have thin, circular "Hey Google" logos on each side of the vehicle, just in front of the side mirrors, as well as other Google-colored components.
A "Welcome Kit" with a Hey Google-branded tote bag, a key cover, and a Google Nest Hub is also included with the vehicles.

The latest limited edition Hey Google Fiat 500s will be obtainable “soon” in ten European countries, such as the United Kingdom, France, Spain, Germany, Italy, Austria, Switzerland, Belgium, the Netherlands, and Poland, according to the companies.
The new vehicles' prices are yet to be announced by Google and Fiat. When Make It reached out to Fiat for comment about whether the cars would be sold in the United States, a representative did not immediately respond.
Google has previously collaborated with automakers such as Ford and General Motors to install its Android Auto app in vehicles, allowing drivers to communicate with in-car infotainment displays and even monitor the music with voice commands, When you 're within the vehicle, you can use the navigation system or other attachments.
Apple (which is rumored to be working on its own car) has its own in-car tech platform, Apple CarPlay, and Amazon has Alexa Auto.
