The park assist system is an aid that detects available parking spaces and maneuvers the vehicle into parallel and perpendicular parking spaces. The park assist system controls the vehicle movement during a maneuver using the steering, acceleration, gear selection, and braking.

The park assist system comprises of five main modes:

  1. Parallel parking: For reversing into a parking space that is parallel to the carriageway.
  2. Perpendicular parking: For reversing or driving forward into a parking space that is at a 90° angle to the carriageway.
  3. Parallel park exit: For exiting a parking space that is parallel to the carriageway's direction of travel.
  4. Perpendicular park exit: For exiting a parking space that is 90° to the carriageway.
  5. Remote park assist: Allows the driver to perform all of the previously identified park assist parking modes from outside of the vehicle using a remote device, such as a smartphone. Remote park assist also enables the driver to control the vehicle by remote device to perform a forward and backward maneuver which, for example, is useful for parking in a residential garage.
