Systems and methods for providing a three-dimensional (3-D) parking assist feature include receiving sensor data from a plurality of different sensors with respect to a 3-D volume surrounding a top side of a vehicle, lateral sides of the vehicle, and at least one longitudinal end side of the vehicle, determining a 3-D envelope around the vehicle defined by a closest object relative to each of the top side, the lateral sides, and the at least one longitudinal end side of the vehicle, and outputting a distance measurement of the 3-D envelope relative to each of the top side, the lateral sides, and the at least one longitudinal end side of the vehicle on one or more vehicle display, wherein a negative distance is indicative of an overshoot or interference condition.
