SUPERCRUISE IS MUCH IMPROVED FOR 2026 SILVERADO EV ADAS CHALLENGE

EV Channels Review

The 2026 Chevrolet Silverado EV Trail Boss equipped with Super Cruise demonstrates significant improvements over previous iterations, particularly with its ability to perform lane centering on non-pre-mapped roads. While the system successfully navigated challenging conditions and even alerted OnStar in a driver unresponsive scenario, it still exhibits notable flaws. The transition between Super Cruise and standard lane centering is not seamless, often resulting in a noticeable slowdown and a lapse in control. Automatic lane changes are inconsistent, sometimes jerky, and occasionally fail entirely, leading to driver interventions. The reviewer also noted instances of "drunk driving" behavior where the vehicle weaved within the lane. Despite these issues, the system's enhanced functionality and improved performance compared to the Blazer EV SS (scoring 10 vs. -18) make it a step forward, though it still lags behind competitors like FSD (scoring 34). The truck itself garners praise for its size and capability, but the Super Cruise system requires further refinement, especially in its transitions and lane change logic.
