@@KyleConner I'm in Northern Utah, in Logan home of USU. I'm the one who first ported Openpilot to the Grand Cherokee. If you are ever visiting Utah, please feel free to drive our vehicle here to try out Openpilot. Maybe we will visit Colorado within a year, we are less than 500 miles from Fr.

[@barryburns4241]

First of all, I love this series on ADAS!!! I feel like the limited number of roads should be a bigger deduction. I did a 12K mile cross-country road trip in my Tesla M3 with FSD in April-June 2022. I was in FSD probably close to 98% of the time and that includes single lane backroads. I was very impressed at all the situations it did handle correctly. There are several annoying behaviors that some have been corrected in later releases. But I do share some of Kyle's complaints like wanting to take exits (I think it really wants to keep to the right), torque required on wheel (Kyle did teach me something about using the buttons on wheel), and in general some quirky and unexpected behavior. The primary reason I keep the Tesla is FSD, if another car maker made a luxury car/SUV with FSD capability I would strongly consider switching, as I do not care for Tesla ride experience (loud, bumpy, uncomfortable seating, poor build quality). EV is not a must have but ADAS is!! I would also be interested in how these systems perform when pulling a trailer, as I'm thinking of pulling a small camper on my next cross country road trip. Has anyone pulled a trailer behind M3 with FSD...I would be interested in your experience.

[@OverlordActual]

Excellent job! Like y'all said if it could offer hands on lane keep all the time that would be great.

[@onlysublime]

I think it had a hard time getting the signal when you were on the side of the freeway where the mountains where right up against the road. But when you went the other direction, that side had no mountains right up against the road and thus worked better.

[@hoozthair6076]

These are very interesting and quite useful. Thanks!

[@MrDgt66]

It's pretty amazing, that GM did this and not a new fancy EV-only automaker. It's mostly software and fine tuning, so it shows they got really good engineers on board. Really like this challange series, please do more of it! :)

[@Jeroenneman]

It's not amazing if the system just doesn't do things. Super cruise only works on limited road sections.

[@BenefitOfTheDoubtInquiry]

They put it on their most expensive offering to limit the total number of users because they know it can't do what AutoPilot learned to do two years ago.

[@alexcuevas5633]

Glad that you took control of the truck in time since it can also call OnStar if you refuse to take control if you don't take control😮

[@e-redj]

It shows that the latest automotive technology is not that closely related to electric cars. Yes, you find it normally in EVs, but not only. 👍

[@testi2025]

If you still have that Volkswagen, try the ACC (with out auto steering) on a twisty road. It has a very nice automatic braking for corners. I live end of a twisty road, and I can just set the speed to like 45mph and let it figure out the speed.

[@kens97sto171]

I wonder if the point that is suddenly disconnected, there was a bit of wheel slip? Maybe Stability control detected something... I have had pickups that in a turn in the wet had the rear end bounce and cause a slight instability.. Maybe that's what happened.. then maybe there is a longer timer set or you have to come to a complete stop before it will reset and allow it to engage again.

[@caddyzig]

Very cool to watch Super Cruise in action. Looking forward to a review on a Bolt EUV-or the new Cadillac Lyric or Hummer EV.

[@brycehealy1573]

following up to second the request to see the Bolt EUV do this---it has the older system but for the money it seems like the value alone makes it a clear winner.

[@ezpoppy55]

Nice job on the video. I can see the reason for your enthusiasm with the system. However, you stated that the rationale for using this stretch of road is that “…if it can do well on this road, it will do well anywhere.” Well… call me a nitpicker, but both of you stated, repeatedly, that this system will NOT work “anywhere” (at least, as I understand that word). This system only works on pre-mapped roads, and even then, it can/will balk (start of your test, twice, and the twisties). An open system like Auto Pilot is relying on constant real time input, that can be used pretty much “anywhere.” And yes I drove I-70 across Kansas and Colorado into Utah on the return portion of my Sacramento > Louisville > Sacramento 5,500 mile road trip last month. With Auto Pilot. I found AP to be an excellent system that worked through that entire trip, even on two lane state routes and back country roads. It’s not so picky…

[@keksi6844]

I think by anywhere they mean any other highway that is mapped.Most other highways are straight.

[@ezpoppy55]

@@keksi6844Possibly… Kyle is not shy about expounding, at great length, so I’m going to assume that when he says “anywhere” he really means anywhere. Not “This only works in select places, which you need an internet connection and a device and a co-Pilot to plan out, and even then, it may not work.” But maybe I’m assuming too much.

[@updlate4756]

Found the Tesla shareholder. First off, the test is for highways. It may be possible to use Autopilot on other roads, but that isn't what's being tested here... No system is a true driverless system yet. They're all advanced drivers assistants, ADAS. This system happens to rely on mapped roads, and it isn't the only system Out of Spec's tested that requires mapped routes; Blue cruise does as well. Supercruise's current highway coverage for the system is already pretty extensive, covering most of the major US highways already, including the major trans-continental highways. Earlier this month, GM released information and maps for where they're expanding coverage to, and it's a huge increase in mapped highways. Just about every major highway in the country. While it certainly won't work on 100% of highways, this review shows that it works incredibly for the routes it's enabled. The point of these systems is to assist the driver and improve their highway driving experience, while the driver still pays full attention to the road and is ready to take over at a moment's notice. If the driver has to take the reins once in awhile, then how big of a deal is that actually? Were you planning to take a nap, read a book, play a game, stare at your phone, etc? While Autopilot's flexibility of being capable of being used just about anywhere is nice... I fail to see the importance of it. Why would you want autopilot driving you on back country roads when you have to pay attention anyways? For the novelty? Until Tesla's system is fully autonomus, a lot of Tesla's achievements off the highway are nothing more than useless novelties and gimmicks... The only real issue I saw in this test was where and how it gave up control around that curve.. no system really does a great job of relinquishing control, but GM could do better, and likely will do better with future improvements just like every other company. That said, the big improvement with Supercruise over other systems, beyond it's smooth driving characteristics, is the hands-free capability of the system. If you're driving hundreds or thousands of miles, then at those times when input shouldn't be necessary so long as you're paying attention to the road, do you want to look forward at the road and keep wiggling the wheel every 45 seconds, or do you simply want to look forward at the road?

[@ezpoppy55]

@@updlate4756 My point was simply that Kyle stated (essentially) that if a system could navigate that stretch of I-70, it could navigate “any where.” Now, no one put a gun to his head to make that claim. And he did not have to state that a successful run of that road would translate to universal application. Certainly, I had no part in any of this. All I’m pointing out is that, given the goals, objectives, and claims made, the system failed. It would not engage (twice), it disengaged in a section of road that had some curves to it. I don’t see how anyone can claim the system successfully managed that test. How many people are going to restart their trip simply to get the system to recognize it was in fact on a pre-mapped interstate? You…? Myself, I have no problem keeping my eyes on the road (which this system requires) and my hands upon the wheel (a la Tesla). I haven’t seen any system that convinces me autonomous driving is ready for prime time. That being said, I found AP to be a system that allowed me to arrive at my destination much more relaxed, and it operated in a predictable and reliable manner. Including that stretch of I-70 Kyle was driving on.

[@albsure4832]

@@ezpoppy55 give it up. You are reading too much into his statement. He simply meant that out of all the mapped roads, he felt this road was one that presented alot of challenges to the system.

[@richdaley9982]

I have a bolt EUV with super cruise and I’m jealous of the lane changing in this truck. I think it is amazing though. You mention one limitation I wish they would address. You call it “scooching” which is a good word for it. When I’m driving,I’ll move to the opposite side of the lane to a semi next to me in case the wind knocks the trailer around. Super cruise keeps you in the center of the lane no matter what.

[@reallyisitjustme]

VW Emergency assist, assuming it is fitted with the necessary sensors, will pull into the nearside lane before coming to a complete stop. Using VW swarm data, the car will also follow a path preferred by previous VW cars so in theory could avoid a pothole.

[@techyjames1945]

While Super Cruise appears to be great when it works you listed several huge strikes for me. 1. it only works in pre mapped areas. 2. If there is road construction appears based on maps those areas get removed. One strike you didn’t cover after 3 years it becomes a subscription model based on their website. I will admit Tesla just added subscribe requirement for its navigation but that is after 7 years so I don’t mind that after 7 years for me at 30k year well past time to replace the vehicle.

[@cbenson513]

Good points. Only working in mapped areas design is a huge drawback compared to any system that works well and can handle nearly any road. This test route and scoring doesn't reflect that reality.

[@cbenson513]

@@Nebula1701 Good points, but in terms of scoring usefulness of system, surely a system that can work on a multiple of the miles another system can should get some extra scoring.

I have this exact Truck! And you are correct when Super Cruise is working it is awesome. Have 5k miles on the truck now and ~2500 was out on Interstates mapped roads. Systems works as shown in the test and was surprised where it you actually work in some construction zone. I actually prefer the position it only works on mapped roads as it brings more safety to the situation. Trying turning super Cruise on ins heavy traffic and you will feel uncomfortable. I agree GM has done something right with the smoothness of the lane changes. Also, I have noticed that the vehicle actually will accelerate when it has move to a pass lane and it senses traffic coming up from behind. Once it passes it will slow back down. Most impressive maneuver I have seen was when the vehicle sensed another vehicle entering a ramp and the Truck performed a lane change to the left lane to make room for it, was not expecting that to work. I laughed when you locked out Super Cruise, because it can be frustrating when that happens (turn the car off to reset it). Oh and those massage seats are super nice too.

Cadillac does - I looked it up on their website after your mention of their Super cruise.

Doesn't Tesla charge like $10,000 plus for it?

@@venom5809 that’s for FSD not autopilot. Autopilot is included in every Tesla for the lifetime of the vehicle.

I wonder why GM took this approach where a road must be pre-mapped and have a solid internet connection. This is just not scalable at all.

Level 4 autonomy

[@troosimimimmi]

eventually the supercruized cars will autonomously premap the roads without any human interference. plus all supercruise cars will be real time connected to share data with same driving destination. think of as a super patrol lidar car driving major roads constantly

[@toddhickey1956]

It’s not electric… it requires pre-mapped highways…. Got it.

love out of spec - but videos are getting too long and you digrece too much. would be great if they were shorter and to the point. On the Hogback its too complicated and we need some screen shots of the point system and points getting assigned and subtractions. it would help.

[@sicsempertyrannus226]

Love the video. I'm a little surprised that you weren't more critical of the auto-lane change. It appeared to me to recognize the need to pass very late and slow down way too much. Seems like it should be able to recognize that it's gaining on a vehicle and start looking for an opening much earlier so as to avoid slowing down, if possible. In the first lane change with the truck in the right lane, Super Cruise dropped you from 65 to 47 instead of just getting over earlier. I would add this as a criteria and deduct a point or two for it; that is not ideal. However, in a later lane change, it got over very early and didn't need to brake at all. It reminds me of how many, if not all, Adaptive Cruise Control cars will slow down way too late when traffic slows or stops on the highway. Our 2018 Odyssey does not start slowing nearly early enough when traffic slows and if you let it go, it will have to engage the Collision Mitigation Braking System.

It is supposed to, I seen another review and the driver wore sunglasses.

Love the videos but too many commercials. Made it kinda hard to watch.

[@newscoulomb3705]

Hot take: I'm actually happy that many of these systems do not work off Interstate Corridors, and I think that driver assist functionality should not be available in residential areas at all, outside of accident avoidance systems (e.g., automatic braking).

[@rickkay9548]

Any ADAS requiring pre-scanning 5 years from now will be laughed at harder than they are today.

[@gregb7353]

The other big downside other than mapped roads is how strict it is for construction zones. If you want to use it for a commute via Interstates in a big metro, ALL roads are permanently considered under construction. This is true even if it's just adding a frontage road or whatever. It's useless for commutes.

Trucks are the worst. 1/3 bought a car too big for their abilities, 1/3 has some kind of road rage problem and the last 3rd actually needs it for work and drives normal and knows it's size. Don't buy cars you can't drive.
