Level Four autonomous system allows Mercedes luxury saloons to park without a driver at Stuttgart airport

Bosch and Mercedes-Benz have obtained commercial approval to introduce their autonomous valet parking system in Germany.

The Level Four autonomous driving system has been approved for use at Stuttgart Airport’s P6 garage, where it can park – and return – cars without the driver. 

It works via the Mercedes Me smartphone app. Drivers book a space in advance and leave their vehicle in a drop-off zone, at which point the system checks whether the route to the space is clear.
