A vehicular trailer assist system includes a camera disposed at a rear portion of a vehicle and viewing at least rearward of the vehicle, and an electronic control unit (ECU), which includes an image processor for processing image data captured by the camera. The ECU executes a deep convolutional neural network (CNN) to determine, via processing of image data captured by the camera, presence of a trailer rearward of the vehicle. The CNN, responsive to processing of image data captured by the camera, determines a position of a trailer relative to the vehicle. The CNN, responsive to determining the position of the trailer, classifies the trailer into a trailer category. The ECU, responsive to the CNN determining the position of the trailer, generates an output based on the trailer classification to autonomously control the vehicle to align the vehicle with the trailer and navigate the vehicle toward the trailer.
