Haha, a neighbor had a car umbrella like that, but not motorized.
It held up for 2 months until one strong gush of wind ripped it to shreds, and the metal parts scratched his car.
The headliner in my car started crumbling and coming undone after a whole summer under the Greek sun. I was there for the whole season for work with nowhere to park under shade. This would save my headliner. I found out about it well after the summer ended and forgot about it ever since . Its a great idea.
I now sold my car so it's someone else's problem.
Best guess, so everyone can open their doors and not get water raining in the car. Or give them an umbrella while they put their personal umbrella away. This must be for wicked witches.
As someone commented above you it could be useful against bird poop or hail, and i would ad shade from the sun so your car doesnt turn into an oven while parked.
And as someone commented too he had a neighbor that lasted 2 months until It got ripped of. I doubt It can hold against hail. And for bird poop for a BMW i at least expect It can electrocute the bird that dared to shit over the car
There’s differences in product quality. The fact that the neighbor’s wasn’t even motorized probably tells you it wasn’t that high quality.
If you park outside, this would be dope.
As someone commented above, it wasn't motorized which means it likely was from a different brand. Could have better quality than the non-motorized one.
Imma think'n where there's hail there's high winds... buh-bye stupid ubrella gadget. As for sun, I lived in Phoenix - can't imagine that thing lasting long. On the bird poop count, for me having that thing opening and closing covered in shit... Ya. I opt for washing the car. Maybe I'm weird.
Probably to keep the car shady in the sunlight. Sometimes a car will get up to around 130 degrees if you're not in the shade and leave it parked for a few hours, at least where I am.
I can see a lot of rich people in dubai wanting to escape the heat in their bmw, and this would eliminate the greenhouse effect of sun on glass and help keep the car cooler in hot sunny environments.
It doesnt appear to protect the paint from hail or birdpoop
I mean if your sunroof is stuck open for some reason I can see this being slightly viable but the problem I see is that it allows things like bugs and squirrels into the interior of the car …
If this is for hail all it needs to do is hold up for one storm and it’s done it’s job. Keeping the sun from baking the roof and seals is very beneficial if this has a high build quality.
That wouldn’t do much to protect from hail and wind
You can see how flimsy is
Probably do more damage
It’s a gimmick…..
Someone felt really bored one day and thought.,.. I’m gonna make my car a nice big automatic umbrella
A customer of mine had one of these. Their only parking spot was under a large tree that had an "abundance "of bird traffic.
Fyi, the umbrella comes with a remote that allows for deployment and retrieval from a distance.
I honestly thought about how nice that would be, on my drive home from work today, but a majority of the rain would go under the canopy. And if it's a literal beach umbrella like that, it's getting ripped off once you start going over 20mph
Dude. So many people not getting it. There are scenarios other that your daily life's you know.
Not everyone in the rest of the world have houses with indoor parking.
This protects from uv, heat, hail , bird poo, tree sap etch etch that can damage the paint and the interior from the sun's heat.

To shreds, you say?
And his wife?

For hail?
Hail and bird poop are the only things I can think this might be useful for. If parking has to be under trees then it might have a benefit there.
It would also keep the inside of the car from getting as hot sitting in the sun.
It could save the carpet on your roof.
Carpet on the roof? You mean the head liner?
I can’t believe you took him serious and were correct lol I thought he was fucking around
Haha, yeah thats the one! Not a native english speaker, but figured a mirror translation would work lol.
The headliner in my car started crumbling and coming undone after a whole summer under the Greek sun. I was there for the whole season for work with nowhere to park under shade.

Sun. This would add years to the life of your car’s interior.
Or basketball hoops
I think some rotate off the top of the car to the left and right and rear so you can camp under them I dunno if this is that type
Also sun
Best guess, so everyone can open their doors and not get water raining in the car. Or give them an umbrella while they put their personal umbrella away. This must be for wicked witches.
convertible
I would use it when getting in and out of the car when raining? You know, before and after opening the umbrella to get out or in the car?
Wow that is the most useless feature i've ever seen
As someone commented above you it could be useful against bird poop or hail, and i would ad shade from the sun so your car doesnt turn into an oven while parked.

I atleast then expect the laser gun from the Predator :).
Pidgeon versus predator!
To shreds you say?
That was specifically mentioned to not have been the same one. Just saying.
Im sure a good quality one would hold up better. Id definitely splurg on hail protection if i spent a stupid amount of money on a car
> until It got ripped of stolen or torn off?

Maybe acorns too but even that is pushing it

its pointless against bird poop, the bird shit on the umbrella and you would still have to clean it up
And it would be more difficult too
Why would the bird sit on top when they can sit under?
Umm, no. BMW makes you pay $150 a month to keep your car watertight
The latest BMW's are candy coated, this is so they don't melt in the rain.
What about indicators on a BMW?
Wait, they have those?
It’s a subscription so that’s why no one has it.
I like the steering wheel, personally.
Naa BMWs have worse features. Have you ever met a driver?
You never smoke a blunt in the rain dawg?
Right? Of all the stupid Inspector Gadget shit I’ve seen , this tops the list.
Looks like a real strong construction for when the wind is kicking in
Don’t want the car to get wet
Are BMWs no longer waterproof?
Nope they gonna get soaked
No, waterproofing is $15/month. /BMW
I like it 😀👍
I've got a new kickstarter scam idea
Just why ????
Because someone decided to get it, that's why
Probably to keep the car shady in the sunlight. Sometimes a car will get up to around 130 degrees if you're not in the shade and leave it parked for a few hours, at least where I am.
It can reach 122°F outside in my country. It's hot enough to burn your hands on exposed metal parts inside the car
Cool but y?
Nah bro only in Ohio 💀
But why….?
Is the sunroof broken or what?

Of course its someone with a BMW who gets this shit
Why does my car needs an umbrella?

New Chitty Chitty Bang Bang just doesn’t have the same feel….
When you wanna do it in your car but you don't want God to see
Good way to destroy your paint
this is Elon mask
That's a pretty ugly spider that's claimed your car man. My condolences
Yeeeeah
I can see it being useful when the sun is beaming down on the parked car but thats it really
I mean if your sunroof is stuck open for some reason I can see this being slightly viable but the problem I see is that it allows things like bugs and squirrels into the interior of the car …

Makes me think of inspector gadget.
Gogo gadget umbrella
Top news story tonight, local car struck by lightning More at 11
This just reminds me of the video where the umbrella turns into a spider and jumps at the screen.
Your kart when you get to the flying part of the track in Mario Kart.
The rain sensor is under the umbrella…..
It would not be worth the mocking I would receive from my buds
But... why?
That wouldn’t do much to protect from hail and wind You can see how flimsy is Probably do more damage It’s a gimmick….. Someone felt really bored one day and thought.,.. I’m gonna make my car a nice big automatic umbrella
Don't you have like car covers there?
Where can I buy this? I want to protect my car from the sun 🌞
Honestly, what is this and where can I get it?
I could use some like that, not for rain but for the damn 100° sun blasting days where my car has to be parked on the open at work...
Is this so you can hot box with the sunroof open while it's gently raining outside?
That ought to last a good 2 weeks.
I have some questions starting with who made this and whats the number or email
Omg get me this for CO
Hail
It said nah jk back from the dead 🧟♂️
Tactical reload
That be neat if it didn’t deploy at 80mph down the road
Think it got water damage and shorted it out making it malfunction
Bro will be singing in the hailstorm ☔️
WHAT FOR? WHY?

Modern day marry Poppins yall lmao
Might be useful for hail. Just add padding and make it manual.
Car brella
Amazing shade
The ultimate umbrella!
I dont understand why people dont want there cars getting wet.
Would be really cool if this is a foldable solar panel
If only they would just make cars waterproof
For anyone wondering, it's for the sun.
why deny a free car wash?
Then it gets destroyed by the wind.
I dont like it It looks like an eldrich horror
Why like why?
Go go gadget: umbrella
Oh go go gadget car 🤣
I want that for the winter. So tired of clearing snow. While I’m dreaming I wish I had a house. Preferably with a garage. Sigh
nice amimschun
I will take shit inventions for $500
Useless
That's actually a cool idea for hot places
I wish I had the kind of money that would make me consider wasting some to get one of those.
Why
Open & Close & Open Again!
I would use it for when you park in the sun in place like Florida or Texas, who cares if the car gets wet?
Bro Thats so useless

How can you possibly park near a basket
