General Motors (GM) has announced that its Super Cruise hands-free driving assistance system has achieved a remarkable milestone of one billion miles (approximately 1.6 billion kilometers) driven since its introduction in 2017. Initially launched in the Cadillac CT6, Super Cruise is now available across a variety of GM models, totaling nearly 750,000 vehicles in the United States and Canada. Unlike competitors, GM's system operates only on restricted-access highways that have been extensively lidar-scanned and HD-mapped, ensuring a higher level of safety. The system also includes a driver-facing infrared camera to monitor the driver's gaze, ensuring attention remains on the road. Rashed Haq, GM's vice president of autonomous vehicles, highlighted that the renewal rate for Super Cruise is close to 40%, indicating strong customer satisfaction and frequent use. On average, drivers utilize Super Cruise for 17 miles (about 27 kilometers) and 24 minutes per trip, with more than half of users engaging with the system weekly or daily. The mapped road network for Super Cruise has expanded significantly from 160,000 miles (approximately 258,000 kilometers) at launch to nearly 700,000 miles (about 1.1 million kilometers) today.
