- Driver attention is essential: Super Cruise® requires an attentive driver with eyes on the road and readiness to take control at any time.
- Use on compatible roads: The system engages on mapped highways where it’s designed to perform; your Sierra 1500 will indicate when it’s available.

What sets Super Cruise® apart is how naturally it integrates into the Sierra’s broader technology suite. Camera views and available trailering tools connect to your daily workload, and the system’s cues are designed to be intuitive—so whether you’re crossing county lines for a delivery or cruising to a long-scheduled dinner on the coast, the truck’s intelligence assists without intruding. When conditions change—construction zones, changing weather, or tight interchanges—your Sierra 1500 prompts you to take the wheel, ensuring you always remain in command.
Many shoppers wonder how Super Cruise® fits their specific driving routine. If you spend time on compatible divided highways and prioritize lower fatigue across those segments, it can make a noticeable difference. If your driving is mostly local, you’ll still appreciate Sierra’s other available driver-assistance and infotainment features, including the Head-Up Display and advanced camera views that make parking, lane changes, and hitching feel more precise and predictable.
For buyers comparing trims, Denali and Denali Ultimate emphasize a clean integration of the system with premium materials and comforts, from authentic wood accents to available 16-way power front seats with massage. That cohesion matters; the more comfortable and composed the cabin, the more effectively you take advantage of Super Cruise® on those longer stretches. And when you step off the highway, the world’s first six-function MultiPro™ Tailgate and available CarbonPro® composite bed make quick work of loading up for the beach or staging tools for Monday’s job.
