Moving to a subscription-based service model
Per Autoblog’s Jeremy Korzeniewski, a Cadillac spokesperson confirmed that the service will cost $25 per month for current CT6 owners who want just a standalone plan. This means you’ll have to pay this month after your three-year free trial runs out if you want to keep using this brand-exclusive perk. If your Cadillac vehicle already has OnStar and Connected Services, you can purchase Super Cruise as an add-on service for just $15 extra per month.
Whichever Super Cruise option you go with, the monthly charge will cover two key components of the service. For starters, the fee covers access to an OnStar Emergency advisor in case human intervention is needed to avert an accident. It also covers map updates. That way, the system has the most current navigation information to tap into when the vehicle is in semi-autonomous mode.
Thankfully, if you’re a first-year adopter of Super Cruise, the brand is offering a one-year complimentary extension of the service before you need to shift to the monthly subscription model. So, you can enjoy the service you paid for upfront for a while longer before switching to a monthly plan.
Super Cruise Highlights
If you’re new to Cadillac technology systems, you might not know how Super Cruise works or why it’s worth getting. In a nutshell, Cadillac advertises it as “the first true hands-free driving assistance feature.” It’s designed to make highway drives less stressful, using tools like Adaptive Cruise Control – Advanced and Lane Centering.
If you’re more stressed out by surface streets, the brand is currently working on Ultra Cruise for non-highway driving.
