The experiment, which puts cars into a 28 to 32 degree angle automatically after parking, was put forward in an attempt to increase the number of vehicles that the garage could accommodate.
 
The project has thus far been a success. According to Shanghaiist, the inclined parking has increased the vehicle capacity of the lot from 24 to 40.

However, it was not disclosed how much they will charge for this automated parking.
