With autonomous emergency braking being made compulsory in Europe by 2020 or so, and since that and ACC are closely related systems, plus with the competition from self-driving cars, I very much expect it to be a standard feature by the time you get another car.

Btw, I could almost swear that I already saw it as an option in cars like the VW Polo or similar type. Not 100% sure though--it might have been autonomous braking only.

Agreed. :-)
