Adaptive cruise control = cruise control where the car will maintain a minimum set distance to the car in front. You steer, but the car will accelerate or decelerate depending on traffic up to the maximum speed set in your cruise control.

Traffic Jam Assist = Adaptive cruise plus it will steer the car for you. Must touch the steering wheel periodically.

Extended Traffic Jam Assist = Traffic Jam Assist on "restricted access" roads - I read this to mean highways. This is full autonomous driving up to speeds of 40ish mph.
Thank you very much for explaining in detail. Much appreciated! Cheers.
