BMW to expand urban driver assist to city streets starting in 2027

BMW plans to extend its navigation-guided partial automation into city environments beginning in 2027, with Germany as the first market. The system uses built-in GPS navigation to help steer, accelerate, and brake on both highways and urban streets. In towns, it can assist with lane changes, turns, yielding to other vehicles, and navigating roundabouts. Because it is classified as a Level 2 driver assist system, drivers must keep their attention on the road and be ready to take control at any time. The announcement positions BMW as a competitor to Tesla's Full Self-Driving software.
