Abstract

The parking assist apparatus includes a sensor that detects an object by receiving a reflected wave reflected by the object by a transmitted wave, and a controller that executes parking assist control for parking the vehicle in a parking space set based on a detection result of the sensor. The controller provides a predetermined margin to a size of a peripheral object, which is an object detected by the sensor and exists around the parking space, in a provisional direction in which the parking space is narrowed. The controller executes parking assist control using a size of the peripheral object to which the margin is provided. When the size of the peripheral object newly detected by the sensor becomes larger than the size to which the margin is provided, the controller executes parking assist control using the size of the peripheral object newly detected by the sensor.
