GM announced the expansion of the Super Cruise network in August. The map above shows a significant difference in coverage. This upgrade brings total support to more than 400,000 miles (643,738 kilometers)) of roads in the United States and Canada, which is double the current 200,000 miles (321,869 kilometers) of highways.
Following this SUV, GM-produced electric vehicles get a Super Cruise upgrade via future over-the-air updates. The company’s announcement doesn’t say when the new software will come.
The Chevrolet Bolt EUV, Cadillac CT6, and XT6 with Super Cruise don’t get the full upgrade on supported roads. In contrast, these models only have an additional 20,000 miles of coverage.
GM has improved the Super Cruise for more than just adding supported roads. In 2021, it updated the system for the CT4, CT5, and Escalade to run automatic lane changes at the request of the driver. Technician waiting for a safe opening in traffic and moving.
Last year, the automaker announced the Ultra Cruise as the next step by having the ability to cover every paved road in the United States and Canada. The Cadillac Celestiq electric sedan will be one of the first vehicles with the technology. Production will begin in December 2023.
GM trademarked the term “Hyper Cruise” in 2021. The filing says it’s for “autonomous driving,” but documents for Super Cruise and Ultra Cruise list them for “semi-autonomous” automotive. So far, the company has not announced any applications for this technology.
