Parking assistant vs plus in the UK

When looking at the countryman electric I was checking out the configurator in the uk. I noticed that Level 3 includes parking assistant plus with multiple cameras but parking assistant also comes as standard.
I have a 2022 countryman and paid for the comfort plus package then which included parking assist plus which is self parking. It finds a parallel parking spot and parks itself.

My question is, does the standard version of parking assistant park itself now or do you have to get level 3 for this? (And that’s pretty pricey!).

Sorry to derail but does the parallel park work?

That's one thing I'd probably tick, living in the country I never learnt to parallel park, I just can't do it 😒

in my 2022 Countryman it works very well. You just need two cars/obstacle in between the free spot and it works well. I use it on London roads all the time.

I believe the standard Parking Assistant will parallel park as before. The Plus version adds 360 degree cameras and, as well as parallel parking, can reverse park (or park forwards) into tight spots in car parks for example.
MINI has posted a video on YouTube demonstrating this.

That's very helpful to know. It was hard to figure out if it was included. Not all other cars include this.
