Over the last couple of years, we’ve spent a fair bit of time fooling around with Mercedes-Benz’s Distronic Plus With Steering Assist. Though we’ve experimented with other semi-autonomous systems, the Mercedes system currently seems to be the most predictable and confidence-inducing. The downside? The red hands that light up, reminding you to put your hands on the wheel, despite the fact that the Benz is caroming merrily down the freeway and does not require your input. And while Caddy’s new CT6 may not out do the E-class or S-class in interior loveliness, it won’t require you to touch the steering wheel in autonomous mode.

Speaking to Autoline Detroit’s John McElroy, GM’s Cem Saraydar discusses Cadillac’s new Super Cruise system, set to arrive in the upcoming CT6. While he doesn’t mention specifically how Super Cruise will keep the driver in the car-control loop, he says that it will. Klaxons? Buzzers? Waterboarding? We’re not sure. Regardless, owners of Super Cruise-equipped Cads might now actually be able to navigate CUE without running off the road.
