A control system for a vehicle includes a camera disposed at the vehicle and having a field of view rearward of the vehicle, and at least one non-imaging sensor disposed at the vehicle so as to sense a region at least rearward and partially sideward of the vehicle. During a reversing maneuver of the vehicle along a pathway, the control, responsive to processing of image data captured by the camera, determines edges of the pathway. During the reversing maneuver of the vehicle along the narrow pathway, the control, responsive to processing of data sensed by the non-imaging sensor, determines distances to objects present at or near the determined pathway and rearward and sideward of the vehicle. The control, responsive to determination of the pathway and determination of objects present along the pathway, is operable to steer the vehicle along the pathway to reverse the vehicle along the pathway.
