BYD’s self-parking car comes with a guarantee
The Chinese automaker has rolled out a major update to its God’s Eye autonomy platform, now capable of Level 4 self-parking.
That means a BYD car can fully park itself – even in tight spots – without the driver doing a thing.
And if it hits something, BYD covers the damage, not you.
The brand confirmed on Weibo that it will fully absorb any repair costs from parking mishaps involving its self-parking tech in China.
Owners won’t have to go through insurance, and their future rates won’t be affected.
The feature even includes smart safety extras, like auto-folding mirrors and sensors that detect hanging obstacles to avoid collisions.
It’s a massive vote of confidence in a space where other carmakers are yet to offer similar coverage.
Why this could change the game for autonomous features
Plenty of brands offer self-parking, but none back it up like this.
Tesla, for example, has faced ongoing criticism over its AutoPark system, and doesn’t offer damage protection if something goes wrong.
BYD’s approach flips that script – not only launching more advanced parking features, but also owning the risk.
That could be a serious selling point as more buyers weigh the pros and cons of autonomous tech.
The promise also shows how competitive the Chinese market is getting.
With brands racing to win trust, BYD’s self-parking guarantee sets a new bar and puts pressure on others to follow.
Whether or not they do, BYD’s message is clear: they believe in their car – and if they’re proven wrong, they’ll pay for it.
