Boooom!! Wtf happened to Collision avoidance assistance?? Isn't the car supposed to steer away, in case of an imminent crash?..

What I also find disappointing is how Pilot Assist reacts (brakes..) suddenly and abruptly when it registers a car in front- compared to, for example, Tesla's Autopilet's progressive, gentle slowdown..

It relies on the driver to start the maneuver. If you look at the dashboard footage, as he/she starts to turn the wheel City Safety kicks in and helps out.

I thought the Volvo did pretty poorly in comparison to many of the others, nearly all of which picked up the stationary vehicle at lower speeds and braked gently.

You're right- I missed this line..

"City Safety engages by amplifying the driver's steering input, which only occurs after the driver has begun an evasive manoeuvre - and then only if the driver is not steering enough to avoid a collision."
