Great video learned more about the car from this than from the Mercedes Benz garage salesman or their after sales cheers Tomas keep up the great work your doing
that last back-in parking spot was tight... can't even open the door for groceries or baby stroller! i'm glad the parking spaces where i live aren't that small...
Parking assistance is very nice while you are "learning to know" your new car. Once you have been using the assistants 3-5 times, you know the measurements of your car pretty good and may park a lot quicker than the car itself.
From my experience with the 2018 version of park assist, the car needs far more space than the 2016 version. If it doesn't like the space, no "P" within the block appears. Not very good. I have spent countless occasions going backwards and forwards by spaces big enough for the car to fit in, waiting for the info to appear on the screen (I eventually did it manually) which on a main road is not fun, or safe. Back to the drawing board. When I returned to the dealer, even the salesman said he didn't use it.
Mark Lyttleton nothing beats the good ‘ol manual parallel parking training. I fear one day humans will use less and less of their faculties and devolve further.
exactly what I thought, though more likely the car or cars behind you would have had to stop and be covering your parking spot so you would end up looking like a fool who has stopped in the road for nothing and then have to drive on
Ashton Kee one day ? Wake up ! Cars will drive fully autonomous within the next 10-15 years, manual control will be dead soon, driving a car is not defining mankind and our ability, its just another activity like sports as if you do it often you will just get better, some people like to park themselves and some love to use the assistant...
Holy shit look at that parking at 03:30, he really did it on its own, this tech is really craz nowadays, I would never expect it to park it in this tiny gap...
I can tell you that it feels even more weird than it looks, when you try this for the very first time. It takes A LOT of bravery to "let go" because the car actually rushes into the gap sometimes :)
The driver side is on the left, so if only the driver gets in the car, no one will touch the a class. But I agree, it's still a cramped space and wouldn't leave my car there either
Hello, I have a question to rear parking manouver. I saw that you came "from rigth to left side" but as you wanted to leave the parking the car has automaticly turned left so in the opposite direction "from right to left side". So is it possible to choose in which direction the car will leave the parking?
would be good BUT there's a major issue...the fact that for both parallel parking the other parking when the car finds the space and tells you to stop....the car is stopping way way too far after the space lol the only way you could use it is if your on a road with no traffic or other cars behind you because there is so much space behind the car that other cars would be stopping behind you covering that parking spot lol you don't need that much space when you do it yourself so the car shouldn't
If you are an average driver, you really don't need the parking assistant. It's only useful when you are learning your new car. Still quite impressing tech, though. Just imagine a world of self-parking cars. That would be quite a lot of space spared. PLUS I am waiting for the moment I can speak into my clock: "KITT, c'mere!" - and I'll be fetched right by my own car right on the doorstep🤣
It’s a very good video but the care goes forward so far from the parking place. Anyone can take that and I think behind the drivers will get confused and angry. Hmmmm especially if the driver is a female. 🥴☺️

Finally someone that does the parking video! Keep it up
Nice one, thanks for this. Confidence growing that this feature is in my next purchase. :)

With that kind of gap and overshoot, people coming from the back would have mercilessly stolen that parking spot already lol 😆

Wish those wheels were available in the UK! They’re Europe only.... look so much better

Nicely shown. Great video. Thanks
Great video!! Congratulations, keep working like that!! 👌👌
4:40 thats tight, i wouldn't leave my car there, that white car would dinge your doors getting in

Great tutorial...you gave us somethings different like in-out view. Well done
Mercedes my favorite car
Will try this in my CLA.
Mine doesn't work every time, not sure why. Are there certain cases when it does not find parking spaces even if there are some around?
Yes, the space should be wide enough. Sometimes such system cannot detect properly the parking slot due to e.g. visibility
Thanks:)@@1001cars
in your case, which required to reverse and park right side parking. is the car need to switch to reverse gear and give a right signal first ?
Yes, it needs these driver's action before the start.
Thanks so much for your video

You put your indicator on which direction you want to leave.
Does all A class have this or is it an additional option?
It is optional
More videos like that! :)
Is done very nice thank you.
When car automatically parks, do you need to press brake, or does car do it itself?
Info from the description: In the process, acceleration, braking and gear-changing is automatic if the 7G-DCT dual clutch transmission is installed.
@@1001cars cool, my 176 has to change forward and reverse gears and brakes👍, was also s bit hit n miss detecting spaces
would be good BUT there's a major issue...the fact that for both parallel parking the other parking when the car finds the space and tells you to stop....the car is stopping way way too far after the space lol

Is that Mercedes lowered? Looks good and lower than in other videos with 19” wheels
Yes :) It is a AMG trim and it is lowered
at 2:40 what would happen if there was cars behind would it still work
no
It would stop for cars
Do you have to break or does it do itself
As I wrote on the movie: no you don't have to.
Is this a new channel? I can recognise your face from other videos
thank you
but how does it work with manual gear?
It doesn't, only available on AUTO cars :-(.
@@heephstan Thats not true. my mate has it in his manual gear mercedes.
fm_98 what year and model?
@@1990Thunderbolt 2017 GLA
It prompts you to select the gears
Impressive! 😀👍
Who would need help parking in that BIG space ? It should be used in narrower spaces, if its really any help
Can I see your movie about such system with narrower space? :)
If you are an average driver, you really don't need the parking assistant. It's only useful when you are learning your new car.

No way but I’m the kid red ranger from mighty morhin
4'41 You are supposed to get out of the car !!
I did that :) It wasn't the best position but it was possible :)
awesome~

En todas estas pruebas hay mucho espacio con lo que no me fiaría mucho .. que tal aparcar en Ciudad?
The second parking slot was really narrow. Show me your parking slot where you park manually.
Wao
U mnie to nie chce dzialac
The black one could have done it too lol
I find it incredible that car makers these days are making cars for people who cannot drive.
