ENHANCED AUTOMATIC PARKING ASSIST

Available Enhanced Automatic Parking Assist can detect parallel and perpendicular parking spots while your vehicle is moving forward below 28 km/h. When the feature has detected a large enough parking space, you'll hear a beep, and instructions in your instrument cluster or your infotainment display will tell you to stop and shift to Reverse. The feature automatically steers, brakes and shifts gears to park your vehicle. It can also help you exit after parallel parking.

Super Cruise™  is an available hands-free driver assistance technology for use on divided and compatible highways. The system steers the vehicle to maintain lane position or to perform a lane change, under certain conditions, while also monitoring your attention to the road.

Working with the Adaptive Cruise Control system, Super Cruise reduces the need for you to frequently steer, brake or accelerate under available operating conditions.

KILOMETRES MAPPED

With an attentive driver, and under the proper conditions, Super Cruise-equipped vehicles can permit hands-free operation of the vehicle. Super Cruise functions with Cadillac Connected Services and uses real-time precise positioning, cameras, sensors and LiDAR map data to help detect every curve, helping to make long drives and commutes comfortable and more convenient.

AUTOMATIC LANE CHANGE

In some cases, the available Super Cruise technology may determine that changing lanes is optimal. Automatic Lane Change will automatically activate the turn signal and initiate the lane change when selected in the settings menu and changing lanes is identified as optimal for an efficient and smooth ride.

LANE CHANGE ON DEMAND

The 2023 Escalade is equipped with Lane Change on Demand, which allows the Super Cruise technology to steer to perform a single lane change under certain conditions when requested by the driver.

Super Cruise offers an ever-growing network, so you can travel on over 320,000 km of compatible roads throughout the U.S. and Canada.
