Review about Remote Smart Parking Assist

Evholic_20 · Dec 5, 2024

Hi! I wonder how the remote smart parking assist would work for tight spaces. Have you guys tried it? Any risks in using it? I guess it takes a while until the car gets parked. Imagine waiting at the entrance of a busy parking space because someone is using the feature to get out of a tight space, haha!

When I first tried it I was feeling the same as I was feeling while watching satisfying videos on YouTube.

The feeling you have when you are inside, and the car does its stuff on its own is pretty unique. Though, I have never used this feature trying to park in a tight spot.

I’ve given the RSPA a shot in a crowded garage, and while it’s cool, I’d say it’s best used when you’re not rushed. It does take a little time, and people might get impatient if there’s a line behind you. As for risks, I’ve noticed the sensors are pretty sensitive, so it avoids obstacles well. Just make sure there’s enough room for the car to do its thing, and you should be good.

Tried it only twice. I was too tired to do the parking myself, so I used the remote smart parking assist. I don't trust it too much, this is why I am not using it more often. BTW, the space was pretty large when I used the feature.

Let's be honest, I mostly use the remote parking to get out of my tiny garage. It's more of a party trick for when I show off the house. I'd never risk it in a real parking lot – I'm too scared someone's going to ding my car! My family thinks I'm crazy because I always park a mile away from everyone else.

Remote smart parking assist is likely pretty slow and methodical, which, as you point out, could be a bit of a wait for other drivers if someone's using it to maneuver out of a tight spot in a busy parking lot.

I haven't personally tried it, but I imagine there's a learning curve and it might not be perfect in every situation. If the sensors misinterpret something or if a pedestrian or another car suddenly appears, it could cause problems.

Best to use it cautiously in controlled environments at first to get a feel for how it works and to always be ready to take over manually if needed.
