Plans are currently in place to carry this high-definition technology over to even more of the GM vehicle lineup for the 2020 model year, including models like the Chevrolet Corvette and upcoming Cadillac CT5. This HD upgrade is just one of the many ways GM stands out when it comes to vehicle safety and technology.
