Chevy Truck Talks: How does Super Cruise™ alert me to take control? | Chevrolet

The Super Cruise™ industry-first driver attention system tracks the driver’s head position and eye gaze and alerts them to pay close attention to the road to take control when needed while Super Cruise is engaged. Hear from Lead Solutions Manager, Jeff Miller, as he answers your questions about Super Cruise.

The hands-free future

Super Cruise is the first true hands-free driver assistance technology for compatible roads, and it’s now being offered on more Chevy vehicles than ever before. Select 2023 vehicles will now include additional features plus an expansion of compatible roads to bring your hands-free experience to the next level.

With an attentive driver, and under the proper conditions, Super Cruise can permit hands-free operation of the vehicle. The technology functions with OnStar®† and uses real-time cameras, sensors, GPS and LiDAR map data to detect curves, helping to make long drives and commutes more comfortable.


Super Cruise™ with Trailering†


When your properly equipped vehicle’s trailering system is activated, it will allow Super Cruise to recognize your compatible trailer and automatically lengthen the gap to the next vehicle ahead in traffic — giving you extra stopping distance if needed. No other competitor offers a hands-free driving system with towing capability.†


Note: Trailering cannot be used in conjunction with Automatic Lane Change or Lane Change on Demand.


Automatic Lane Change†

When a slower vehicle is detected ahead, properly equipped vehicles can automatically initiate the turn signal, change lanes, pass the slower traffic, signal again and return to their original lane without the driver ever touching the controls.


More than 400,000 miles of compatible roads†

Available on select Chevy vehicles in the U.S. and Canada. This road expansion allows you to travel hands-free on more roads than ever before.


Lane Change on Demand†

By simply activating the turn signal on select Chevy vehicles, Lane Change on Demand will look for an opening in the desired lane and change lanes without any further input from the driver.

Super Cruise vs. the competition

See how Super Cruise hands-free driving technology compares to Ford BlueCruise, Rivian Driver+ and Tesla AutoPilot.


Comparison of active safety/driver assistance feature availability does not include the relative effectiveness nor functionality of the compared features. Each manufacturer designs and develops features that may or may not perform equivalently due to differences in sensors used, data interpretation, and other vehicle mechanizations. Feature comparisons based on data from competitors’ websites and owner manuals.



Compatible Road Map

Experience more than 200,000 miles of compatible roads in the U.S. and Canada in Bolt EUV and more than 400,000 miles of compatible roads for other select Super Cruise enabled Chevy vehicles†. For your next trip, use the map below to search for compatible U.S. roads.


OnStar Service Plan

Super Cruise functions with an OnStar† service plan. All Super Cruise-equipped vehicles include 3 years of connectivity to support functionality, after which an eligible paid Super Cruise OnStar service plan is required.



How does Super Cruise know how fast to go?

Super Cruise will use the Adaptive Cruise Control† set speed, however if you have not set the Adaptive Cruise Control speed when Super Cruise is activated, it will use your current speed as the Adaptive Cruise Control set speed. Super Cruise also will slow down around sharp curves.


How and when does the map information used by Super Cruise update?

Super Cruise map information is updated periodically. Automatic updates via your OnStar plan will occur for the latest Super Cruise road availability information. In the event that a map update is not completed within seven months, Super Cruise will be disabled. In order to get Super Cruise working again, you must either drive the vehicle long enough for the automatic updates via your OnStar service plan to take effect or visit the dealer to have a new map update downloaded to the vehicle for free. Wi-Fi may be required for map updates. See your owner’s manual for details.

Who can service my Super Cruise System?

The Super Cruise system is a highly sophisticated system and should only be serviced by technicians with the proper training, tools and safety instructions, which are qualifications Chevrolet dealers have. Without these qualifications the vehicle may become damaged.

When driving down a straight road with Super Cruise active, it feels like the vehicle is not in the center of the lane, or is too far to the right (or left), why?

Each individual has their own tendency of where they drive in a lane, and where they perceive the center of the lane to be. Because we do not sit in the center of the vehicle, this can vary from driver to driver, and also depends on what type of vehicle is being driven based on how wide or tall the vehicle is. Super Cruise is designed to drive in the true center of the lane (+/- 4 inches or 10 cm). This may be different from where each individual normally drives and may give some drivers the feeling that they are too far to one side. In addition, in the Bolt EUV, Super Cruise does not move to one side of the lane when passing traffic.
