One of the biggest headaches for city drivers is finding a parking space, and with Mayor Bloomberg expanding bike lanes and instituting bike share programs, parking will be even scarcer for New York City drivers. Fortunately, Audi is adding a parking navigation service for all Audi connect subscribers, making it easier to find the perfect spot.

INRIX Park services checks parking space availability and compares the hours and rates for nearby parking garages using Audi’s navigational system. The service was first unveiled last week at the Telematics Detroit 2013 conference, and already, the word is that INRIX is easy to use. In the words of INRIX President and CEO Bryan Mistele, it is “easier” and more intuitive than a smartphone.

INRIX Park services is now standard for all vehicles equipped with Audi connect, so current Audi owners can access it via their Audi MMI Navigation system. For more information about the features currently offered by Audi connect, click here.
