Volkswagen Polo: Park Assist system - real-life test :: [1001cars]

Park Assist System: this assistance system automatically guides the Volkswagen Polo into parallel or perpendicular parking spaces, and it can also reverse out of parallel parking spaces. It is activated by pressing a button on the center console. Using the indicators, the driver selects the side on which the car is to be parked. If Park Assist detects via the ultrasonic sensors a parking space that is large enough (40 cm of manoeuvring room, front and rear suffices), assisted parking can begin: the driver engages reverse gear and only needs to accelerate and brake (an automatic braking function assists in the event of insufficient space). The car - Volkswagen Polo - takes care of the steering.

Good stuff, one of the best such videos around. Perpendicular auto parking is quite some thing but for the parallel parking I have yet to see a video where the space is really tight. In all these videos you could literally park 2 car lengths in there so the assist is not really needed. We need to have videos for much tighter places.

That’s mostly to show the function. Those cars can get into quite small spaces, it’s scary sometimes 😁
