Enjoy a more comfortable driver assistance experience with available Super Cruise hands-free driving technology. Now available on more vehicles than ever before, Super Cruise handles the steering, acceleration and braking so you can let go of the wheel and enjoy the drive.
In order to operate Super Cruise, you must have an active and eligible OnStar Super Cruise Plan or trial. All new Super Cruise-equipped vehicles include three years of OnStar One* to support functionality, after which a Super Cruise plan must be purchased.
Super Cruise is not just cruise control; it's a Level 2 hands-free driver-assistance technology. It uses LiDAR maps, GPS, cameras, radar, and real-time monitoring to handle the steering, acceleration, and braking, helping maintain a selected following distance from the vehicle ahead.
As of 2026, Super Cruise works on 600,000+ miles of pre-mapped roads across the U.S. and Canada. That includes rural highways and bypasses, not just interstates.
On properly equipped vehicles, Super Cruise can recognize when you're pulling a trailer*, and it will automatically lengthen the gap to the next vehicle ahead in traffic. This gives your vehicle extra stopping distance.
Super Cruise only works on compatible roads with clear lane markings. No city streets, stop signs, or traffic lights. Explore over 600,000 miles of Super Cruise compatible roads.
Activate Super Cruise in just 3 steps.
If properly equipped, your car will automatically pass slower vehicles in your lane without you having to touch any controls.

Hear why OnStar Member and GMC owner, Marco, loves having Super Cruise in his vehicle.
GMC Super Cruise is the industry's first true hands-free driver assistance technology for compatible roads. It functions by combining real-time cameras, sensors, GPS, and high-definition LiDAR map data to maintain lane position and following distance. Unlike standard adaptive cruise control, Super Cruise handles steering, acceleration, and braking automatically. The system operates on over 750,000 miles of compatible highways across North America, including major routes connecting Fergus Falls to Alexandria and Detroit Lakes.
No, Super Cruise is a Level 2 hands-free driver assistance system, not a fully autonomous vehicle. It requires an attentive driver at all times. To ensure safety, the system uses a Driver Attention Camera located on the steering column that monitors your gaze via infrared sensors. If the system detects that your eyes have left the road for too long, the steering wheel light bar will flash to prompt you to take control. If a driver remains unresponsive, the vehicle will safely bring itself to a stop and contact OnStar Emergency Services.
Yes, GMC Super Cruise is uniquely engineered to support hands-free trailering on properly equipped Sierra 1500 and Sierra HD models. When a compatible trailer is attached, the system automatically adjusts the following gap to account for increased braking distance. It is important to note that while Super Cruise supports hands-free trailering, the "Automatic Lane Change" feature is typically disabled while a trailer is in tow to maintain maximum stability and safety.
