INRIX, a provider of connected car services and movement analytics, has rolled out its off-street parking service in the Mercedes-Benz E-Class in Europe and will launch shortly in the US.

This feature will enable vehicle drivers to find, compare and navigate to available off-street parking spaces with the help of COMAND infotainment system.

INRIX executive vice president and general manager of automotive Andreas Hecht said: "In the era of the connected car, having access to dynamic parking information is no longer a luxury for drivers but a necessity.

"INRIX off-street parking plays a critical role for customers who expect a high standard of performance and innovation in their driving experience."

INRIX off-street parking offers drivers parking information in real time.

This information includes routes to the closest garage locations, detailed rates, limitations and restrictions and real-time occupancy.

It also provides access to comprehensive and accurate parking database that includes more than 29 million confirmed spaces in over 90,000 accessible locations spanning 4,000 cities in 64 countries.

INRIX off-street parking will show only those parking spaces that are publicly accessible and non-restricted, including both free and fee locations.

In 2013, INRIX launched its off-street parking service, followed by integrated on-street parking solution in June 2015.

Last August, INRIX purchased ParkMe, a provider of parking location, availability and reservations worldwide.
