Does it follow the car in front's speed on the highway while keeping you in the lane?

I would absolutely love a car that could do that well while I still paid attention while listening to podcasts/audiobooks.

I haven't tried any newish midtier cars, only been in a friends Tesla which is beyond my needs.

These niche applications are 100% what car companies should have focused on from the beginning rather than robotaxis.

My Jetta GLI can do this. ACC is good, if there’s a hard stop it will beep at me to brake, or brake itself hard later. The lane centering worked great in WA (with a tweak to the options to enable stronger centering) and works pretty good in CA (lane lines aren’t always as clear). Basically I only have to give a very light touch on the steering wheel, the car mostly just follows the road.

The system overall is not perfect but it’s great in stop and go and pretty good in regular traffic.

My single test drive with a Civic was similar but I didn’t test out the ADAS so much (and they wanted too much for it).

Recent Toyotas like a Corolla can do this.

Yep you can rent any modern Corolla and test the feature out. Most rental cars have this

Yes for the most part. It’s good enough to say look around and enjoy the view off a bridge or check a text message but not enough to write a long text or read an article
