It’s
Google’s new 'house-made self-driving' car, and its front-grill “face” was
designed to look friendly.
Unlike Google’s autonomous cars of the past — with a whirring device on top, but otherwise like any other car — its new prototype has no need for the trappings of a driver-ful past. Instead, it’s designed from the ground up as a car meant never to have a driver.

While some design choices help with functionality — the squat, round shape of
the car gives the sensor at the top better visibility — others are specifically
meant to help the car fit in when it clearly sticks out.
