Taycan Active Parking Assist not working in NYC

[Av0789]

Hi all,

I am wondering if anyone else has this happen to them. The last two times I drove to Manhattan from NJ, the second I entered out of the tunnel into the city, the active parking support showed not available. I was extremely frustrated because the city is where it is most needed, I left the car parked and locked. Turned it back on and it is still not available, left manhattan, the second I entered jersey city, it shows available. Since this happened twice, it is hard for it to be coincidental. It has worked in the other boroughs or any suburb. Does anyone know if there is some liability issue where Porsche has blocked use of it in Manhattan, seems very weird….

Don't know about Manhattan specifically – but its definitely location aware. Porsche recently announced that Active Parking Assist was now available in – wait for it – The Vatican!

Autonomous parking is not legal in NY therefore its GPS-disabled.

Hmm.... Is Taycan vying to be the next pope-mobile?

Hmm this is specific to Porsche? I have other cars that parallel park in NY with no problems.

It has to do with how NY classifies self-parking. Some are considered autonomous, some are not so allowed. I dont know thre details sadly.

But Taycan's self parking is not allowed:
