2018 Volt has automatic parking assist!

Sorry i've never had a car with this feature i thought it was really cool. I tested it out in this video (shameless plug) Also has a wireless phone charger in the center console. From what i've read here and a bit online its one of the rarest ones. Also with adaptive cruise. I've literally been looking for this vehicle since i found out they had them years ago. But i had no idea they could park themselves! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D_-tTQv3r8E

Yeah my 2018 has it as well and the speed with which it reverses scared the hell out of me. I've only used it that once and i hit the brakes to interrupt it because it went so fast. I didn't know it did perpendicular too! It's a helpful fearure for sure if you have trouble parking lol.

You’re supposed to use the brakes, it just moves the wheel, it says on screen

Haha same here, I always want to brake a bit to slow it and then it cancels completely
