New Brochure to download showing the final specs for MY08 (including R36)
The Coolest new function is Park Assist -
Part Assist actively helps the driver when reversing into parallel parking spaces. The system works by using sensors mounted either side of the front bumper together with parking distance sensors front and rear.
To parallel park the driver needs to press the Park Assist button and use the appropriate indicator before the car passes the potential parking space. Sensors in the front bumper then scan the size of the parking space as the car is driven slowly past and the driver is alerted if the parking space is big enough. If there is sufficient space, the driver stops the car, selects reverse and let’s go of the steering wheel.
Park Assist will alert the driver of the intended reverse path in the Multi-Function Display, within the driver’s field of vision. Park Assist then actively supports the driver by taking over the steering control and parks the vehicle in the available space using the ideal course. The driver can however take over the control of the steering at any time and end the automatic parking procedure. The system can reverse into parking spaces on both the left hand and right hand side of the road, for example on one way streets.
