I drive a Nissan myself, but from the sounds of it it's about the same. LDW (just warning in my case), FEB + pedestrian/moving object detection, blind spot detection, intelligent/adaptive cruise control. (There's also a lane keeping system option called ProPilot, but I skipped out on that - I don't think I'd trust it in the regular rain anyway)

Anyway, my point is these things are common now, and while getting the full package might cost a premium, the more important parts (like FEB) are certainly becoming fairly standard.

From what I understand, Subaru develops their own. They are the only ones where there are two cameras in the front that both see in color.

We have a 2017 Subaru with all of these and it's really excellent.

I have ProPilot. It's pretty great. In heavy rain it shuts itself off and tells you that it is unavailable in bad weather.

That's great news. ProPilot sounds ideal for dealing with daily stop and go commute without the cost and risk of Tesla
