This feature is possible thanks to a combination of artificial intelligence and information from the US Department of Energy.
The new Lite Navigation feature allows cyclists to quickly see important details and keep their eyes on the road.
Users can glance and see trip progression, ETA, and even route elevation on Google Maps.

Lite Navigation will roll out to Android and iOS over the coming months.
Google worked alongside ride-sharing services like Donkey Republic to make the feature possible.
