This system assists with steering, accelerating, and braking for other vehicles and pedestrians within its lane. The official page also notes the availability of Full Self-Driving Capability as an optional upgrade. 

This more advanced system is described as enabling automatic driving on city streets and navigating complex intersections. The final capabilities and regulatory approval for these features in the UAE are to be confirmed.
