Has It Come To THIS? - BMW 330i Vs Tesla Model 3 - Which Car Parks Itself The Best?

A Tesla Model 3 was recently pitted against a 2019 BMW 330i (G20) in a practical automatic parking test, with both vehicles being required to perform a parallel parking maneuver in a relatively tight spot. The results of the comparative test were very interesting, and they all but show that not all parking assist features are created equal.

The 2019 BMW 330i is quite literally brimming with tech, being equipped with a series of safety and convenience features such as Active Guard Plus, Lane Departure Warning, Collision and Pedestrian Warning with City Braking, and of course, Parking Assistant, which is capable of automatic perpendicular and parallel parking maneuvers. The 2019 BMW 330i even includes Reversing Assistant, a clever capability that the German automaker describes as “automated reversing in confined spaces or situations where the driver does not have a clear view, such as multi-story car parks or entrances to courtyards.”

This is one example by an unreliable source posted on Tesla site. How bad are Teslas that their fans have to keep making up stuff to justify their purchase?

It's interesting when the socialists stab each other. Truthy as a flat-earther....now that's funny.

This kind of competition really reflects the sad state of affairs throughout the automotive press.

It doesn't seem like a biased video, he showed BMW features Tesla doesn't have.

The reversing assistant on the BMW is pretty interesting, didn't know that feature even existed.

Name one economy car that can record every action and do it in reverse automatically? Obviously you didn't watch the video.

They didn't even conduct the tests the same way. I am not a BMW fan but they didn't align it in the proper spot to parallel park the car. You don't line the cars up next to each other, you have to start ahead of the spot more, like they did on the Tesla. Dumb competition conducted by morons or bias.
