GM is making driving smarter, more convenient, and accessible with its advanced hands-free technology, Super Cruise. Introduced in 2017 as the world’s first truly hands-free driver assistance system, Super Cruise has since expanded to over 20 Chevrolet, Cadillac, Buick, and GMC models, with availability continuing to grow.
By the end of 2025, it will cover approximately 750,000 miles of roads across the U.S. and Canada—including an industry-first feature that allows hands-free trailering on properly equipped vehicles.

Super Cruise operates using real-time cameras, sensors, GPS data, and precision maps, allowing drivers to remove their hands from the wheel under specific conditions.
The system builds on Adaptive Cruise Control, adjusting speed to maintain a safe following distance while ensuring driver attentiveness through GM’s Driver Attention System. If needed, it issues visual, audio, and haptic alerts, and in emergencies, it can bring the vehicle to a controlled stop and contact OnStar for assistance.
Key features include Automatic Lane Change, which allows the vehicle to pass slower cars or navigate merging lanes on equipped models, and Lane Change on Demand, which executes driver-initiated lane shifts while checking blind spots.
Super Cruise also offers Hands-Free Trailering, automatically adjusting for trailer weight, size, and turning radius to enhance safety and ease of use.
GM continues to refine and expand Super Cruise, with over-the-air updates regularly adding new roads and features. Select models even integrate Google Maps, highlighting Super Cruise-enabled routes for a seamless experience. With its growing capabilities and constant enhancements, Super Cruise is redefining hands-free driving for more people in more places.
