Summon/AutoPark on incline

[Carl_L]

Hi folks and, so sorry if I've broken any etiquette rules with this, as my 1st post.

Currently drive a Volvo XC40 but wanting to go EV. Volvo over-priced, Polestar luurrrvly but, still a poor relation to Tesla.........particularly in regards to charging network.

My issue is this:

I live in a flat with (powered) garage but garage is 60's/70's dimensions and has a slight incline in its approach. I like the M3 but would probably hold out for the MY UK launch and, as such, am worried about width. MY will fit but be almost impossible to get of - auto park should be my saviour but not sure if it will work on my (modest) incline. I think I will be able to drive in up to A pillar & then get out & all will be OK but it's a lot of money to spend to find out I was wrong.

Question: Anyone have any figures on what incline it can handle and/or what improvements are forthcoming? Sorry for long post but the summon/park on an incline may be a deal-breaker for me.

Summon won't work on a slope, or over a lip higher than 1".

Not sure about autopark but I don't think it will identify the garage as a parking space.

You would probably need to get an extended test drive to try and find out for yourself if it is workable, as it sounds like a deal breaker.

Thanks bud. Yup, I pretty much knew I'd need to test drive / rent in order to answer my question but......thought I'd take a chance.

It most certainly is a deal breaker for me but this video (using auto park rather than summon) gave me hope that, if I got get the front of the car in 1st, I might just about get away with it:
