Is there a way to use the 3D Views or 3D Perspective in Google Maps API?

I am trying to use the 3D View / 3D perspective in a project. I can't find any tutorial, sample or documentation for this feature.

Expected View

PS: There are a few question about showing 3D Buildings from SketchUp, that is not what I am asking.

Is Street View available in Google Maps free API?

The Street View Static API is charged for each request to embed a static (non-interactive) Street View panorama. Cost starts at 0.007 USD per each (7.00 USD per 1000) with a usage limit of 30,000 maximum queries per minute.

I know this isn't exactly what you're looking for but cesium.js is a pretty awesome (and I'd say more powerful) library for 3d mapping which can use the google satellite basemaps. It supports 3d terrain but I'm having trouble finding the demo at the moment.
