The big news with Drive AutoPilot is that Nvidia is offering it commercially to vehicle manufacturers, kind of like, say, Brembo does with brakes. A company wants to add these features to its vehicles, so it contracts with Nvidia, which then supplies it with an appropriate system, but that system isn't exclusive to said automaker. It's a lot cheaper for the carmaker, and probably a lot better than trying to develop these incredibly complex systems on their own.

In terms of actual functionality, Nvidia is making it sound like the system should be on par with Tesla's most recent version of Autopilot, which we've experienced and found to be impressive. Alongside Nvidia's announcement of Drive AutoPilot, automotive suppliers Continental and ZF announced that they have systems based on Nvidia's platform. Nvidia expects the system to be out and in the wild by 2020.
