Park Assist with memory function. The Passat has launched with an enhanced range of state-of-the-art assist systems. These include the optional or standard Park Assist Plus system and the new memory function for Park Assist, depending on the equipment version. The basic function of Park Assist Plus is a system that is already familiar from other Volkswagen models and allows assisted driving into parallel or bay parking spaces. Assisted driving out of parallel parking spaces is equally possible. The Passat takes over control of acceleration, braking and steering for this purpose. A new feature is the memory function for the enhanced Park Assist Plus. With this feature, the system records the last 50 metres driven and thus the parking situation. The parking manoeuvre can be stored when the Passat has come to a stop. When the vehicle reaches this position again, it automatically offers to take over parking. Independent driving out of a parking space is also possible. Up to five parking manoeuvres can be stored.
