The new GM Super Cruise offers an eyes-off driving mode. The 2028 Cadillac Escalade IQ will debut the next-generation Super Cruise. The luxury electric SUV has lidar, radar, and cameras. Super Cruise driver-assistance technology from General Motors permits hands-free driving in some scenarios. In 2028, the business will deploy an eyes-off version of Super Cruise, which allows drivers to watch TV or check their phones. GM plans to first offer eyes-off driving mode in the Escalade IQ, a full-size electric SUV, before expanding it to other vehicles. The hands-free Super Cruise technology, which debuted in the Cadillac CT6 and has subsequently been added to many Chevrolet, GMC, and Buick vehicles, will be introduced faster than the eyes-off version, according to GM CEO Mary Barra. The Eyes-off technology will initially only work on certain routes, and GM has not specified which states or regions will be able to use the next-generation Super Cruise. Since its launch, hands-free Super Cruise technology has spread to additional miles of road. The business claims lidar sensors in the next-generation Super Cruise technology provide the precision needed for advanced autonomous driving. The system uses radar, lidar, and cameras. An Escalade IQL design with this technology features a large sensor module on the roof and turquoise lights on the bumpers and mirrors to alert other drivers to eyes-off mode.
