GM Expands Super Cruise Network in North America Again

Click for more Super Cruise.

General Motors (NYSE:GM) said today that it is increasing its Super Cruise Network to 750,000 miles of available hands-free driving, which makes it the largest such assisted driving application in North America. GM claimed this was nearly six times the coverage of other hands-free driver assistance technologies on the market today. The new roads have started to be added incrementally over-the-air, at no additional charge, and will continue to be added through 2025.*

“GM is all-in on safely deploying Super Cruise as we make the technology available on more vehicles, more roads and for more people to enjoy. A key part of that is expanding the road network, in this case nearly doubling it again, with LiDAR mapped highways. High precision LiDAR mapping gives us an operating domain where we are confident in Super Cruise’s abilities, “said Anantha Kancherla, GM vice president of ADAS.

Super Cruise launched in 2017 as the industry’s first “true” hands-free ADAS on the market. GM has incrementally expanded its Super Cruise network, most recently to 400,000 miles (640,000 kilometers), to include major Canadian, U.S. and state highways. Today’s expansion adds minor highways that typically connect smaller cities and townships.
