Super Cruise driver assistance technology will launch on the Sierra 1500 Denali in late model year 2022.

The Sierra 1500 Denali will have the latest version of Super Cruise including the introduction of the ability to trailer while driving hands free.

Super Cruise is a true hands-free driver assistance system on divided and compatible roads.

Super Cruise utilizes a driver attention system and precision LiDAR map data in addition to real-time cameras, sensors and GPS. The driver attention system uses a small camera located on the top of the steering column and works with infrared lights to determine where the driver is looking whenever Super Cruise is in operation. If the driver’s attention system detects the driver has turned their gaze away from the road ahead for too long, the steering wheel light bar will prompt the driver to return their attention to the road.

Super Cruise’s driver attention system and precision LiDAR map data were developed by their Canadian Technical Centre engineers.
