The VW we've hired doesn't appear to have parking assist. I really dislike the Lane Assist but I have to say that I really like the IQ Drive.
Back home when I use cruise control and I come up the back of a slower vehicle I need to just lightly touch the brake to knock it out of cruise and then hit Resume once the road is clear again. The IQ Drive is great in as much as it slows down behind vehicles traveling slower than your set cruise speed and automatically takes you back up to your speed when the road is clear. I dislike auto-boxes but I think the Cruise/IQ Drive would work even better in an auto. With the manual box you can easily be slowed by the vehicle in front to a speed inappropriate to your current gear, or even stopped, so you may need to change down but dipping the clutch knocks it out of cruise.
