The present application discloses a smart vehicle sunshade with storage function, which includes a box body, an umbrella body, a drive mechanism, a wind speed sensor and a controller. The box body includes an umbrella body compartment, a trunk and a sealed compartment. An umbrella body compartment door is arranged on an upper side of the umbrella body compartment. The umbrella body includes an umbrella handle, an umbrella opening mechanism, a folding rib and an umbrella surface arranged outside the folding rib. The drive mechanism includes a connecting spindle, an umbrella rotating mechanism, an umbrella rotating drive mechanism and a swing mechanism. The present application can not only detect the wind speed in real time, automatically close the umbrella body when the wind speed is too high, and can automatically restart by a preset time, which effectively improves the service life of the umbrella body.
