Tesla Autopilot fell to number 7 in Consumer Reports' driving assistance systems ranking. The ranking was: Ford BlueCruise, Chevrolet/GMC/Cadillac Super Cruise, Mercedes-Benz Driver Assistance, BMW Driving Assistance Professional, Toyota Safety Sense 3.0, Volkswagen Travel Assist, Tesla Autopilot, Rivian Highway Assist, Nissan/Infiniti ProPILOT Assist, Honda Sensing, Volvo Pilot Assist, and Hyundai/Kia/Genesis Highway Driving Assist.

"The 12 active driving assistance systems we tested were put through their paces around the track at our 327-acre Auto Test Center in Connecticut and on a 50-mile loop on public roads between September and December 2022. Each system was rated for its performance in 40 separate tests, such as steering the car, controlling the speed, and keeping the driver safe and engaged with the act of driving. Additional features such as automatic lane changes or reacting for traffic lights were not evaluated in this test."

"Consumer Reports testers evaluated the way each of the 12 systems performed within five specific categories: capability and performance, keeping the driver engaged, ease of use, clear when safe to use, and unresponsive driver."
