What I said is that the cars will be networking with each other and relaying information within the network. This should reduce the reliance on sensors needed by an individual car and will enable the cars in the network to act as a single entity which will probably increase the efficiency of the system.

Connectivity is going to be a thing in the future. We need to have a universal networking protocol that allows my toaster to talk to my car or washing machine. OTOH, my guess is that those Mercedes won't be sharing any parking info with cars they consider inferior.
