What Is GM Super Cruise and How Does It Work?

Buick Enclave technology with available Super Cruise in Columbus, OH

Super Cruise steers, keeps your vehicle centered in its lane, and maintains a set following distance on compatible roads. It's not self-driving. You're still the driver, and your eyes stay on the road.

Adaptive Cruise Control manages speed and following gap, while cameras, sensors, GPS, and LiDAR map data help track lane position and upcoming curves. On a compatible road with Adaptive Cruise Control set, a white Super Cruise icon appears. Press the steering-wheel button, and when the light bar turns green, you can take your hands off the wheel.

A driver-attention camera monitors head and eye position. Look away too long, and the light bar flashes green, then red. If the driver still doesn't respond, the vehicle slows to a stop and contacts OnStar Emergency Services.

Key Super Cruise Features

  • Hands-free lane centering on compatible roads
  • Turn Signal Activated Lane Change
  • Automatic Lane Change, when enabled
  • Driver attention monitoring
