There are many IMU manufacturers out there. KVH has some very good ones that are being used in testing of autonomous vehicles. I am sure that other ones are also being used. All vehicles will have to use all the technologies you mention as well as IMU's, not just one or two of the technologies. The KVH IMU's are too expensive for mass car manufacturing though, so their solution is a photonic chip based IMU which they hope to sell for around $200, instead of the thousands their current ones cost. I have no idea what technologies other IMU manufacturers are testing or developing to reduce costs or improve performance. MEM's are one low cost option, but might not have the required accuracy or ruggedness. Cost is no object right now in the development of the autonomous systems, but will be critical in the mass production of such vehicles and systems.
