Blogger tblom shared a rough first ride in Waymo's new Ojai vehicle: the driving feels much jerkier, with random brake stabs and sudden, uncomfortable lane changes, while the interior is plasticky and a big step down from the previous Jaguar I-PACE. Despite being a self-driving maximalist, he came away disappointed. Quoting the post, Sethwinterroth added that the vehicle may be limited by its legacy architecture.
