Actually it is just a first step. What they really are shooting for is you pull up to the front door of some building, jump out of the car, tell the car to go search for a legal parking space (could be a mile

Tesla “Reverse Summon” being tested in Canada with these three modes​

If you don’t know, Reverse Summon is when your car would drop you off and then drive off by itself to find a parking spot. That is the opposite of the current Smart Summon feature, which comes to you from a parking spot.

According to u/110110, a moderator of the TeslaMotors subReddit, Reverse Summon is being tested with three different user-selectable modes.

The different modes determine what kind of parking spot your car will attempt to find – “closest to the door,” “near cart returns” (for those owners who like to live on the edge), and “end of the parking lot” (for those who don’t want door dings).

According to the Redditor’s source, a Tesla employee, the feature is “currently quite good.”
