How Do I Know if My Cadillac Has Super Cruise?

By Anna Duncan

Are you a proud Cadillac owner wondering if your vehicle has the Super Cruise feature? Super Cruise is a semi-autonomous driving technology that allows the driver to take their hands off the wheel on select highways. In this article, we will guide you through the steps to determine if your Cadillac has Super Cruise.

Step 1: Check for the Super Cruise Package

The first step is to check if your Cadillac was equipped with the Super Cruise package. The Super Cruise package was an optional feature available on certain Cadillac models:

  • Cadillac CT6 (2018-2020)
  • Cadillac CT5 (2020)
  • Cadillac Escalade (2021)

If your Cadillac model is not on this list, then it does not have Super Cruise.

Locating Your Vehicle’s RPO Code

To determine if your vehicle has the Super Cruise package, you need to find its Regular Production Option (RPO) code. The RPO code is a unique identifier for each option in a vehicle’s build sheet. Here’s how to locate your vehicle’s RPO code:

  1. Open the driver-side door of your Cadillac.
  2. Locate the white sticker on the door sill.
  3. Look for a series of three-character codes listed under “Service Parts Identification.”

The RPO code for Super Cruise is “UHX.” If you see this code listed on your vehicle’s sticker, then congratulations! Your Cadillac has Super Cruise.

Step 2: Verify Your Vehicle Has The Latest Software Update

Once you have confirmed that your Cadillac has the Super Cruise package, ensure that it has the latest software update installed. The latest software update provides improved functionality and performance for the Super Cruise feature. Here’s how to check for the latest software update:

  1. Turn on your vehicle.
  2. Go to the “Settings” menu in your Cadillac’s infotainment system.
  3. Select “Vehicle > Software Information > System Update.”
  4. If an update is available, follow the on-screen instructions to download and install it.

Step 3: Enable Super Cruise

Congratulations! You have confirmed that your Cadillac has Super Cruise and has the latest software update. Now, let’s learn how to enable it:

  1. Ensure that your vehicle is on a compatible highway with mapped data. The Super Cruise feature only works on select highways in the United States and Canada.
  2. Press the Super Cruise button located on the steering wheel. The light bar on the steering wheel will turn green, indicating that Super Cruise is engaged.
  3. Take your hands off the steering wheel and enjoy the ride!

When To Take Control

While Super Cruise allows you to take your hands off the steering wheel, you are still responsible for monitoring road conditions and taking control of your vehicle when necessary. The Super Cruise system will alert you if it detects that you need to take control of your vehicle.

In Conclusion

In this article, we have provided a step-by-step guide to help you determine if your Cadillac has Super Cruise. Remember to always drive responsibly and pay attention to road conditions when using this feature. With proper use, Super Cruise can provide a safer and more relaxing driving experience.
