Nanjing subway station revealed its automated guided vehicle (AGV) robotic parking garage, which significantly reduces the time and space needed to park a car. Drivers simply need to book a space using a mobile phone application, leave their vehicle at the entrance of the garage, where a lifter delivers the car underground and a robotic roller transports the car to the parking space. Parking time is between two to three minutes and the design uses up to 40 percent less space than the average lot. The recently completed system, which is currently in its final test phase, is expected to be put into operation following the Chinese New Year.

Renault revealed its new driverless concept vehicle called the EZ-GO at the Geneva International Motor Show on Tuesday. EZ-GO is a Level 4 driverless vehicle, so it can change lanes, turn at an intersection, and keep a safe distance from the vehicle in front of it.

This vertical rotating parking lot saves space and helps make parking more efficient. Drivers simply call an available parking spot down with the touch of a button, park in the slot, and the machine does the rest. The 39-foot-high vertical rotating parking lot installed in China's Nanjing occupies only two parking spaces in width but has six floors and can hold 12 cars. A giant motor rotates the system when another driver wants to park or when someone wants to leave.
