A vehicular driver assistance system includes a front camera module (FCM) disposed at a vehicle. The system, responsive to processing captured image data, generates FCM lane information including information regarding a traffic lane the vehicle is currently traveling along. An e-Horizon module (EHM) generates EHM lane information including information regarding the traffic lane the vehicle is currently traveling along. The vehicular driver assistance system determines an FCM correlation using the FCM lane information and sensor data captured by at least one exterior sensor. The vehicular driver assistance system determines an EHM correlation using the EHM lane information and the sensor data captured by the at least one exterior sensor.

A method for controlling a vehicle active chassis power system includes determining, via a processor, a minimum output voltage/current threshold for an aggregated power supply associated with an active chassis operation, and generating an aggregate State of Function (SoF) indicative of a maximum voltage/current budget for an output of the vehicle active chassis power system. The aggregate SoF is based on a primary power source voltage/current output and a power storage voltage/current output. The method further includes causing to control an active chassis power system actuator based on a minimum voltage/current value associated with the aggregate SoF. Causing to control the active chassis power system actuator can include publishing the aggregate SoF to a braking actuator, a steering actuator, or to a domain controller that actively distributes an aggregated power supply capability SoF to a braking actuator and a steering actuator based on one or more present vehicle states.
