Yes to all of those. Adaptive cruise control. Lane change assist. Auto braking. Automatic exits. This stuff has been standard for many years now, and every major brand is touching L2/L3 autonomy. Manufacturers just don't market it as "autopilot" or "fully self driving", because that's not what it is.

Sorry - just bought a new Toyota RAV-4; it does not have auto-lane change, the ability to auto merge onto the highway, the ability to auto-stop at the stop-light, etc.

It does have adaptive cruise control and the ability to stay inside the lines, but it absolutely will not automatically change lanes or exit off the freeway.

Some cars might have of them, but separately. Not integrated into full package.
Not true at all. Exits and switching lanes all require confirmation from the drivers in other cars, not in Teslas on FSD
