Wont really work as someone explain earlier it doesnt detect parking line but detect space between 2 cars instead.

Hi there,
I'm a big fan of autonomous tech and L2 autonomous driving was why I bought it over anything in the price range; but the autopark doesn't cut it. I have even tried it on higher end imported cars and it's mostly a hit and miss. For my X50, I feel its about 20%-30% success rate (anecdotally).

This is because it works 1) only when between 2 cars (i.e. doesn't work in empty parking garage), 2) most of the time it doesn't detect the lot fast enough and you have to drive quite a bit in front of the lot before the prompt comes up, 3) when attempting to autopark, sometimes it tries to park at a non-existent lot (e.g. between two poles/columns), or may give up in the middle of the autopark and ask you to take over.

So from this, the X50 reviewers are correct in that it's not very useful yet.

I would say this: if you are very patient and want the autopark to work, it probably will. If you prefer to park faster, then you will probably manual override. Would recommending testing in a showroom to find out.

Good luck  thumbup.gif

I wont use autopark because of

1. Slow
2. Parking space must been between 2 car
3. If either car senget, the X50 will park senget as well (not following parking lines)
4. Nerve wrecking, moving the car till the sensor give long beeps/too close to other car or object

What would your advice be for someone buying it for the main reason it can autopark?

Wait until the technology is matured more. The x50 autopark is a gimmick, it is not really working yet.

Oh yes!!!!!!! 1 billion times more useful than autoparking, it really makes parking much much easier. And the 360 camera works excellent.

Hi all, just to check when I test drive I notice the 360 camera video doesn't seem high res. Can we change the camera to higher res? Not sure if anyone have done it.

Is it a problem of Proton´s chinese operating system or why are the names of the radio stations not shown, only frequency? Quite ridiculous in 2021, isn´t it?

MY SA say anything below 2.5 considered good.
2.3 seems pretty decent but definitely not the lowest

Believe it is software lock. Not hardware lock. Got people tried to change with original binyue hd camera but still low res.

My car doesnt coat... That wiper real smooth, honestly first time see wiper that smooth.

About the camera, yes. Even we can crack it or bypass it. I yet seen any meaningful reason to upgrade 720/1080p or higher.
Becuase most of the time you use it only need a glance of it see got object on the road or no(parking mostly).

I dont denied the benefit of upgrade, just not that important...
