In case you haven’t heard, the Lexus LS 460 sedan, starting at $61,715 and the longer LS 460 L at $71,715, will actually park itself. The magic behind the parking assist isn’t just the availability but making it user friendly. Lexus is really stepping up innovation and change with this new car. The car parks itself but here’s how:

But the car won’t do everything for its owner. Drivers must identify a parking space roughly 4 feet longer than the LS, pull up ahead of it and put the car in reverse. The navigation screen switches to a rearview camera image with a box and four arrows. The driver pushes the desired arrow for the targeted position, then hits the “OK” button on the screen and lets go of the wheel. If the driver touches the gas pedal or exceeds 2.5 miles per hour, the system will deactivate. The system won’t work on a sloped street.
