Park Assist

The Park Assist parallel parking system helps the driver to manoeuvre into parking spaces with ease – even into tight spots. Ultrasonic sensors compare the available space with the length of the vehicle and gauge, more accurately than the human eye, whether the parking space is suitable. From an optimum starting position, which can also be defined by the system, the vehicle is automatically steered into the parking space – in one or several manoeuvres depending on the model. The multi-stage procedure is able to use even smaller parking spaces. The driver’s task is to control the accelerator or brake; he remains in control of the vehicle at all times and can deactivate the system immediately by taking over the steering or by braking to a standstill.
