Thanks, Chris

I can confirm that my NX I bought here in Texas has all speed DRCC and will work in stop and go traffic; I pretty much use it all the time.

Thanks for the quick response. Maybe the only way to find out for real is to take one out for a test drive at the dealership here in San Diego

Could it be that the Hybrid has it and the others don't? By the way, is it working well enough to not have to intervene often when cars cut you off and similar?

Thanks, Chris

it works very well, its like the car being driving by an instructor, it will break suddenly if someone cuts in, leave enough space between you and the car, I have experienced once where I was in steady traffic at 30mph, someone cuts in, the car breaks to about 20-25mph leaving a gap of 2 cars and then picks up again.

it will always keep a safe distance between you and the car at front of you so in case the car need to stop itself it can.
