It also detects spaces that are not marked by white lines. In addition, the system can now assist with leaving a parking space, even when the vehicle was previously parked manually. If the function is activated, the system automatically carries out the parking maneuver.The "CITY PRO" feature that enables a seamless point-to-point driving experience, even in dense city traffic, will be available at a later date.

This includes video streaming from Disney+, YouTube, Sony RIDEVU and more.
