WATCH: New Volkswagen Arteon parks itself

Does the VW Park Assist actually work? Ntsako Mthethwa puts it to the test.


Whenever an opportunity to drive the latest car on the market comes up, I grab it.

Last week, I attended the all-new Volkswagen Arteon launch in Johannesburg.

The Arteon has been one of the much-anticipated cars for the year 2018, as it is the VW CC’s replacement, and it wins in the looks department.

I will not tell you the changes and driving dynamics implemented on it until my detailed review comes out in a week’s time, of course.

So my driving partner, Wezile Bonani (Bay FM), and I put to the test the VW Park Assist.

The Arteon parked itself quickly and easily. It simply steers itself into parking spaces with the touch of a button.

All you have to do is work the pedals.
