Remote parking

[Ted64]

I have just bought a new Terramar V2 1.5. I’ve downloaded the my Cupra app on my iPhone and linked it to the car. I can’t see a remote parking function on the app, although the car is supposed to have this functionality. Has anyone else found the remote parking feature or used it?

Congrats on the car.

My guess is that you are referring to this function listed in the brochure:

Intelligent Park Assist (with parking
route memory)

Nothing to do with the App - is managed within the car. I've never tried it - falls into the bucket of 'when I need functions like that then I'll be taking the bus'!

The remote parking function allows the driver to exit the vehicle and pilot it remotely using the APP. It's for entering and exiting tight parking spaces.

You set the parking spot from within the vehicle.

Once initiated, you have to keep your finger on the button within the APP to keep the vehicle moving.

I'll be guided by your vastly superior experience James_R but the Cupra App I have isn't capable of this function - is it specific to pure EVs I wonder?

 

[James_R]

I've only ever personally seen it on a Tavascan, that's not to say it isn't available on other models though.

Thanks guys! Mmmm yes it’s that function that you are talking about James. It’s listed as a feature of the terramar on the Cupra website but I can’t see it on my app. Does anyone have experience of actually using it on a Terramar or is the brochure and website inaccurate and the Terramar is missing the remote parking feature?

 

[Ted64]

Oh and other than that I am really loving the car!

 

[James_R]

Send me your VIN number and I'll have a look at the build data

 

[Ted64]

I sent my vin in a message to you James.

 

[James_R]

Yes I replied, your vehicle has intelligent park assist.

 

[Tell]

A hidden feature . Perhaps someone can show where it is on the app with a screenshot. May be it is supported in the car but not written into the app yet ?. Android or Apple ?. Just a thought.

 

[Ted64]

Thanks so much James! I think remote parking might be hidden- I will try to figure it out with the manual.

Let's hope it's not like the phone remote (BMW car) in Tomorrow Never Dies...we know how that ends up .

That was some movie scene that!





*disclaimer - unfortunately Pierce Brosnan is generally too busy filming Mobland season 2 and Paul & Shark adverts to help you remotely pilot your car out of a tight space.
