GM reaffirmed its target to launch an advanced eyes-off, hands-off driving system by 2028, starting with the Cadillac Escalade IQ. The system will function on specific roads and conditions as an extension of the current Super Cruise hands-free technology, but regulatory approval and launch regions remain uncertain due to fragmented US state rules.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway
GM’s renewed focus on advanced driver assistance with a 2028 launch target opens a route for sensor and software suppliers to prepare for scaled integration. You need to start courting pilot partners in states amenable to such tech as regulatory fragmentation will limit broader rollout at first.
