BMW ConnectedDrive Unlocked: Parking Assistant Plus.

We all know that parking can be one of the most frustrating parts of driving, especially in busy car parks or tight spots. At Sandal, we want to help make your driving experience smoother, safer and more enjoyable – and that’s where BMW Parking Assistant Plus comes in.

Available through BMW ConnectedDrive, Parking Assistant Plus takes the pressure off parking by combining cutting-edge technology with clever driver support features. It’s designed to give you complete confidence when manoeuvring, whether you’re reversing out of a driveway or squeezing into a city space.

What is Parking Assistant Plus?

Parking Assistant Plus builds on BMW’s standard parking technology with even more intelligent features. It uses a combination of high-definition cameras, ultrasonic sensors and automatic steering support to help you park like a pro – every time.

Key Features You’ll Love.

360° Surround View - Enjoy a full bird’s-eye view of your surroundings thanks to front, rear and side-mounted cameras. Whether you're near a low wall, another vehicle or a tight corner, you’ll see exactly what’s around you before you move.

Automatic Parking - Once the system detects a suitable space, it can steer the car into it for you – parallel or perpendicular. You stay in control of the gear and pedals, while Parking Assistant Plus does the hard part.

Reversing Assistant - This clever feature remembers your last forward manoeuvre (up to 50 metres) and can reverse the car along that exact path. It’s perfect for backing out of narrow driveways or parking spots with limited visibility.

Remote Control Parking (with Professional upgrade) - Move your BMW into or out of a tight space while standing outside the car, using the My BMW App on your phone. You can even save regular parking paths for extra convenience at home or work.

Why It’s Worth It.

  • Saves time and hassle in tight or busy spaces

  • Gives you more confidence with crystal-clear camera views and sensor feedback

  • Reduces the risk of bumps and scrapes thanks to full surround monitoring

  • Adds a real touch of luxury with effortless, high-tech features that do the work for you

Owner Feedback.

Many BMW drivers find the 360° view to be the most valuable part of the system. One owner shared,

“The camera quality is fantastic. It helps loads with parking in multi-storeys where space is limited.”

Others appreciate the convenience of remote and memory parking.

“I love being able to guide the car out using my phone, especially when someone parks too close.”

Some users mention they don’t always use the automatic parking, but say the visual tools alone make the upgrade worthwhile.

Terms and Conditions.

Please remember that the driver assistance systems do not relieve you of your driving responsibility. Drive in an anticipatory manner and adjust your driving style to the applicable traffic situations, visibility conditions, and other circumstances to avoid accidents. The driver must remain in control of the vehicle at all times.

BMW ConnectedDrive Services are optional paid subscription services. Availability and pricing dependant on vehicle specification. Full Ts&Cs visit bmw.co.uk.
