VIDEO: Luxury car “vending machine” in Singapore

It may look like a supersized Hot Wheels car pack, but this is the “world’s largest luxury car vending machine,” which is owned by Autobahn Motors, a dealership based in Singapore.

The “vending machine” is actually a structure with four columns, each with 15 levels. Technically known as an Automotive Inventory Management System (AIMS), up to 60 vehicles can be parked within it, which as you can see, consists mainly of some exotic machinery.

As one video demonstrates, storing a car is a pretty simple process. Simply park the car in an elevator shaft, select an open slot via a tablet, and the car is sent to its spot. The company notes that storing or retrieving a car only takes between one to two minutes, good news for those in a hurry.

Aside from being a cool-looking building, the “vending machine” is meant to help increase parking efficiency and to save space, which is particular important in Singapore. For those interested in paying a visit, Autobahn Motors can be found at 20 Jalan Kilang, Singapore.

    Looks more like new parking system for modern city like Tokyo & S’pore where they are short of space & only the rich can afford to park.

    The supercar ownership is one of the densest in the world. But their supercars hardly stretched their legs in the road of the republic…..esp. with the speedlimits imposed.

    Also, imagine a supercar is inching away in traffic jam just like Tom Dick and Harry’s econo-box.

      I can say it will NEVER happen even after 5 years. The Return On Investment(ROI) will not be justifiable.

    its funny though…all the malaysian i know that work there….earning apparently a lot but still live in some pigeon hole…owning a car….most can only dream seriously…even when they can afford one its probably a very expensive corolla
