GM SUPER CRUISE REVIEW: CHEVY SILVERADO EV

EV Channels Review

This video provides a comprehensive review of GM's Super Cruise system, tested in the Chevrolet Silverado EV. The reviewer highlights the system's performance in various traffic conditions, focusing on lane centering, automatic lane changes, following distance, and reactions to merging and slowing traffic. While Super Cruise generally performs well, especially on straighter roads and in maintaining following distance, it struggles with sharp curves at highway speeds and can be overly conservative or hesitant when dealing with merging traffic. The reviewer notes that the system, despite a recent update, sometimes favors the center of the lane too closely to adjacent traffic and occasionally fails to yield adequately to vehicles attempting to merge. The reviewer also points out that the system's lane change functionality, while available on command via the turn signal stalk, can be finicky due to the bulky stalk design. Overall, the reviewer finds Super Cruise to be a significant improvement over the first-generation Rivian system tested previously, particularly in its smoother deceleration and better handling of traffic slowdowns, but still deems it imperfect and expects further improvements through over-the-air updates.
