An American living in China was left stunned when her taxi driver ‘airbended’ his car into a parallel parking space.

TikToker Chey Pope shared a video online in which her taxi driver showed off an awesome feature in his car.

With just his fingers and a touchscreen, the driver was able to parallel park his vehicle.

This is parking assistance that we’d all be desperate to have.

This Taxi driver ‘airbended’ his way into a parallel parking space

Chey Pope is an American living in China, and as you might expect, that’s come with some cultural shocks.

In most people’s minds, cultural shocks would be differences in language, customs, or eating habits.

But for Chey, it was a car feature that really left her stunned.

She was in the back of a taxi when the driver said:

“Look at this.”

He then proceeded to ‘airbend’ his car into a parallel parking spot.

Yes, you read that right.

With a flick of his hand on the screen, the driver was able to park the car effortlessly.

“What kind of witchcraft and wizardry is this?” Chey wrote in her video’s caption.

Viewers were also left stunned by the demonstration.

“What kind of sorcery? I needed this yesterday,” one commenter wrote.

“China is living in the year 2075,” another gushed.

China really is living in the year 2075

It feels like every time we hear about China, there’s some innovative product coming out to blow our minds.

Do you remember this humanoid robot with realistic facial expressions?

But in the field of cars, we have to say that China is really upping its game.

With the government compiling lists of ‘cars of the future‘, it’s no wonder that we’re seeing the rise of brands like BYD and the Geely Geome Xingyuan.
