Driving and Safety: Advanced Features for a Smooth and Safe Ride

As the dealer principal at True North Cadillac, I am thrilled to share how our Cadillacs are setting new standards in driving and safety. Our vehicles come loaded with advanced features designed to deliver a smooth and safe ride every time you hit the road.

From sophisticated braking systems that respond with precision to driver assistance technologies that constantly watch your back, we ensure you’re equipped for any situation on the road.

Enhanced mirrors and cameras give you an extra set of eyes all around, making tight parking spots or towing tasks less of a challenge. Here at True North Cadillac in North Bay, our team takes pride in offering these cutting-edge safety solutions that make driving not just safer but also more enjoyable for everyone inside a Cadillac.

Brakes

Cadillac’s approach to braking technology ensures you’re getting more than just stopping power. Our team at True North Cadillac understands the significance of advanced safety systems, which is why we’re excited about the cutting-edge brakes featured in our vehicles.

These aren’t your average brake systems; they incorporate automatic emergency halting and adaptive cruise regulation to offer both smooth rides and unmatched safety on Canadian roads.

Imagine driving through North Bay, knowing your vehicle is equipped with brakes that respond not just to your commands but also automatically adjust based on traffic conditions.

Exploring drive-mode features in Electric Vehicles (EVs) enhances the braking experience further by offering regenerative braking options. This means every time you slow down, your vehicle is efficiently converting that energy back into power for the battery, extending your range and making every stop as efficient as possible.

Whether you’re navigating city streets or cruising along the Trans-Canada Highway, these braking technologies provide peace of mind and showcase Cadillac’s commitment to innovation and driver satisfaction.

At True North Cadillac in North Bay, Ontario, we pride ourselves on offering vehicles that lead with safety without sacrificing luxury or performance.

Driver assistance

Our team at True North Cadillac knows that advanced driver assistance systems are a game-changer for enhancing the driving experience and safety on Canadian roads. These technologies, such as adaptive cruise control and lane centring, give drivers in North Bay an extra layer of confidence.

They help keep your vehicle at a safe distance from others and ensure it stays centred in its lane, making long drives less tiring and everyday commutes safer.

Driver assistance packages available in models like the Cadillac Escalade or the XT6 include features designed to notice things you might miss, such as a car stopping quickly ahead or if you’re drifting out of your lane without signalling.

With automatic braking systems, these Cadillacs can even take action to prevent accidents before they happen. Imagine driving with peace of mind, knowing your vehicle is looking out for you.

“At True North Cadillac, we equip our vehicles with advanced technology aimed at keeping our customers safe.”

These innovations not only highlight Cadillac’s commitment to safety but also position our vehicles among the best-equipped for driver assistance in North Bay. As you explore more about what makes driving a Cadillac unique, let’s consider how mirrors and cameras further enhance visibility and safety on the road.

Mirrors and cameras

Cadillac vehicles use state-of-the-art mirrors and cameras to boost your awareness on the road. Imagine driving with eyes in the back of your head—that’s how our sophisticated systems work.

These tools give you a full view around the vehicle, making it easier to spot nearby objects or obstructions that could pose risks. Whether you’re changing lanes, backing up, or navigating tight parking spots in North Bay, these features act as your extra set of eyes.

This technology not only enhances safety but also adds comfort and confidence to every journey in your Cadillac.

Our team at True North Cadillac believes safety shouldn’t come at the expense of luxury.

That’s why we equip our vehicles with advanced driver-assistance technologies that pair seamlessly with mirrors and cameras for an unmatched driving experience.

The integration provides real-time visuals and alerts directly to your instrument cluster or infotainment screen, ensuring that staying informed is both effortless and intuitive. With these innovations, drivers can enjoy peace of mind knowing they have comprehensive coverage from all angles—a crucial step toward smarter, safer roads for everyone in North Bay.

Towing

Shifting our focus from the innovative mirrors and cameras that enhance visibility, we turn to another crucial feature for vehicle performance: towing. Towing with a Cadillac is about combining luxury with capability.

Our models at True North Cadillac in North Bay are designed to make towing smooth and effortless, ensuring that drivers can transport their trailers or boats with confidence.

Towing requires robust features, and our Cadillacs are equipped with advanced technology to support this need. The Chevrolet Colorado, for example, leads in its class with exceptional towing capacity.

This demonstrates how seriously we take performance and functionality alongside luxury. Our vehicles include systems to maintain trailer stability and safety features that alert you if there’s a risk while towing.

With these technologies, driving a Cadillac doesn’t just mean travelling in style; it means having the power to pull what you need without compromising on comfort or safety.

At True North Cadillac, we understand that towing isn’t merely about raw power—it’s also about control and precision under various conditions. That’s why our Cadillacs come equipped with driver-assistance systems optimized for when you’re hauling extra weight behind you.

From hill start assist to trailer sway control, every element works together seamlessly so drivers can focus on the road ahead while knowing their load is secure.

For anyone looking into purchasing their next luxury vehicle in North Bay who values both elegance and utility, our team of automotive professionals stands ready to guide them through selecting the perfect model suited for all aspects of their lifestyle—including those times they’ll need reliable towing capability.

Parking

Parking your Cadillac should feel like a breeze, thanks to the Enhanced Automatic Parking Assist and Front and Rear Parking Assist technologies. Our team at True North Cadillac is excited to showcase these features that make parking a simple task.

Imagine sliding effortlessly into tight spots without breaking a sweat as your vehicle takes over the steering while you manage the brakes and accelerator. It’s like having an expert co-pilot with you at all times.

“A smooth parking experience awaits with Cadillac’s advanced assistance technology.”

Our commitment at True North Cadillac goes beyond just selling vehicles; we aim to provide peace of mind. With these parking aids, drivers in North Bay can navigate crowded lots or tricky street parking with confidence.

No more second-guessing if you can fit into that spot or worrying about dings and scratches from nearby cars. Let us show you how effortless parking can be with a luxury vehicle designed for convenience and safety.

Hands-Free Driving with Super Cruise

Hands-free driving transforms with Cadillac’s Super Cruise, a pinnacle of driver-assistance technology. At True North Cadillac in North Bay, we’re excited to present this cutting-edge feature that allows for confident highway cruising without the need for hands on the wheel or feet on the pedals under certain conditions.

This innovative system uses precision LiDAR map data along with real-time cameras and GPS to offer smooth and safe travel across thousands of kilometres of compatible highways in Canada.

It requires an active Super Cruise subscription service, which our team can help you set up seamlessly. Through careful guidance, we ensure drivers understand how to engage this system effectively and recognize its alerts for a truly futuristic driving experience in their new Cadillac.

How it works

Super Cruise is Cadillac’s answer to the future of driving, offering a hands-free experience unlike any other.

As your trusted team at True North Cadillac in North Bay, we’re here to guide you through how this cutting-edge technology functions, making your drive safer and more enjoyable.

1. Super Cruise utilizes state-of-the-art Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) mapping combined with real-time cameras, sensors, and GPS data to ensure the vehicle remains centred in its lane. This system forms a detailed understanding of the road ahead.
   

2. Before activating Super Cruise, your Cadillac must be on a compatible freeway. These are divided highways without cross-traffic. Canada boasts thousands of kilometres of these roads mapped out for Super Cruise use.

3. To activate the system, you press a button on the steering wheel once you’re on one of these designated roads. A light bar on the steering wheel illuminates green when Super Cruise is active, signalling that you may lift your hands from the wheel.

4. The vehicle uses adaptive cruise control alongside Super Cruise to maintain a safe distance from cars ahead. It adjusts speed based on traffic flow up to the set speed limit.

5. Cameras and sensors constantly scan for lane markings to keep the car centred in its lane. They also monitor surrounding vehicles to make adjustments as necessary.

6. An attention system ensures you remain engaged while driving hands-free. It uses eye-tracking technology to confirm your eyes are on the road. If it detects a lack of attention or drowsiness, it will prompt you to take back control with visual signals and seat vibrations.

7. For longer drives across multiple highways, Super Cruise can transition smoothly from one compatible freeway to another without driver intervention.

8. Regular over-the-air software updates ensure that your vehicle’s maps and systems stay up-to-date without needing manual upgrades at True North Cadillac.

At True North Cadillac in North Bay, we believe that innovation should lead to confidence and convenience on every drive. With over 320,000 kilometres of LiDAR-mapped highways available for Super Cruise use across North America – translated into an extensive network within Canada – luxury travel has never been this advanced or effortless.

Requirements for usage

At True North Cadillac, our team is excited to guide you through the innovative world of Cadillac’s Super Cruise technology. This groundbreaking feature marks a step forward in hands-free driving on divided and compatible highways across the U.S. and Canada, covering over 320,000 kilometres.

Here’s what you need to know to make this technology work for you.

1. Compatible Vehicle: The first requirement is owning a Cadillac model equipped with Super Cruise technology. Our dealership in North Bay offers a selection of these models, ensuring you can find one that fits your style and needs.

2. Active OnStar® Service Plan: For Super Cruise to function, your vehicle must have an active OnStar® and connected services plan. Every new Super Cruise-equipped Cadillac comes with 3 years of connectivity to support this functionality.

3. Properly Functioning Equipment: Ensure all the vehicle’s systems, including adaptive cruise control and steering-wheel sensors, are functioning correctly. These systems play a crucial role in enabling the Super Cruise feature.

4. GPS Availability: Super Cruise relies on GPS signals to operate. Make sure your journey takes place within the covered 640,000 kilometres of compatible highways where GPS signals are strong and uninterrupted.

5. Camera Visibility: The system uses cameras for road recognition; thus, keeping these cameras clean from dirt and obstructions is crucial for the smooth operation of Super Cruise.

6. Driver Attention System Activation: The driver must be ready to take over when necessary. The car comes equipped with an attention system that ensures you’re watching the road even as your hands are off the wheel.

7. Understanding Limitations: It’s vital to understand that while Super Cruise adds convenience, it does not replace the driver’s responsibility to maintain safety at all times by being ready to take control when needed.

Our team at True North Cadillac believes that informed customers make confident decisions about their luxury vehicles. As such, we stand ready to demonstrate how these requirements translate into an unparalleled driving experience behind the wheel of a Cadillac equipped with Super Cruise technology.

Moving on from understanding these requirements, let us explore how this incredible system operates while you drive.

Learning the alert system

Mastering the alert system in your Cadillac is a crucial step towards enjoying a safer and more advanced driving experience. Our team at True North Cadillac in North Bay takes pride in guiding you through this high-tech feature, ensuring you feel confident and excited about your next luxury vehicle purchase.

Here’s how you can get familiar with the Super Cruise™ alert system:

1. Start by understanding that the alert system is designed to keep you informed and safe. It uses visual cues and sounds to grab your attention when needed.

2. Notice the steering wheel light bar—it changes colours to communicate different messages. A green light means Super Cruise™ is actively assisting your driving. This system lets you enjoy hands-free driving on approved roads but always pay attention to the road.

3. If the light bar turns red, it’s signalling that you need to take control of the vehicle immediately. Common reasons include complex traffic situations or areas not mapped for Super Cruise™.

4. The system also monitors your attention with an infrared camera facing the driver. If it detects that your eyes are not on the road, it will prompt alerts urging you to regain focus.

5. Familiarize yourself with these signals through practice in safe conditions, like empty highways approved for Super Cruise™ use. Understanding what each alert means will enhance your confidence in using this technology.

6. Regular updates from Cadillac ensure that new roads are added to the Super Cruise™ network, expanding where you can use this cutting-edge feature. Keep your vehicle’s software up-to-date to benefit from these enhancements.

7. Engage with our experts at True North Cadillac for a personalized walkthrough of Super Cruise™ capabilities specific to Canadian trims and models available in our inventory.

8. Learn about customizing alert preferences through the MyCadillac mobile app or vehicle settings menu, ensuring comfort with each journey’s alert level.

By familiarizing yourself with how to respond to these alerts effectively, you embrace responsible use of one of Cadillac’s most innovative driver-assistance features—making every drive smoother, safer, and genuinely futuristic.

Steering to avoid safety situations or road impediments

After learning how to disengage Super Cruise, it’s essential for drivers to know how to steer their Cadillac safely around obstacles and hazards. Our team at True North Cadillac wants you to feel confident while driving, especially when encountering unexpected road impediments or safety situations.

Super Cruise is equipped with advanced cameras, sensors, GPS information, and high-definition LiDAR map data. These technologies work together to maintain the vehicle’s position in the lane.

Yet, it’s crucial for drivers to take control in certain scenarios.

If an obstacle appears on the road or if there’s a potential hazard ahead, manual steering becomes necessary. Our Cadillacs are designed for intuitive handling and responsiveness, which makes taking over from Super Cruise seamless and straightforward.

Whether it’s avoiding a pothole or maneuvering around debris on the access road, you can trust your Cadillac to provide smooth manual control with just a slight nudge of the steering wheel.

Manually steering the vehicle

Switching to manual steering in a Cadillac is simple and ensures you remain in control whenever necessary. Our models are equipped with intuitive systems that allow for an easy transition back to traditional driving.

This feature comes in handy when navigating through tight spaces or handling unexpected road conditions. The team at True North Cadillac believes that understanding how to manually steer your vehicle enhances your driving experience, offering both safety and flexibility.

Maintaining focus on the road is crucial, especially during these transitions. Our vehicles provide visual and audio signals to guide you seamlessly from hands-free mode back to manual control.

This ensures a smooth ride regardless of changing circumstances on the road. At True North Cadillac, we equip our drivers with knowledge and technology for a confident journey ahead.

Let’s explore attention while Super Cruise is engaged.

Attention while Super Cruise is engaged

Our team at True North Cadillac in North Bay wants you to experience the thrill of driving a Cadillac equipped with Super Cruise, the premier hands-free driving system. Keeping your eyes on the road and staying attentive is crucial, even when Super Cruise takes the wheel.

This innovative feature requires drivers to remain engaged and ready to take control at any moment. It’s designed for use on compatible highways across Canada, providing a luxurious and relaxed drive without removing the driver’s responsibility for safety.

To ensure Super Cruise enriches your journey safely, always be aware of your surroundings and avoid distractions such as smartphones or other devices. The system uses facial recognition technology to verify that you’re paying attention, but it’s up to you to stay focused on traffic conditions and road signs.

Enjoying this cutting-edge technology means embracing both its capabilities and limitations, making every drive with True North Cadillac not just more enjoyable but also secure. Our priority is helping you confidently navigate Ontario’s roads with ease, knowing that while Super Cruise offers convenience, your vigilance as a driver ensures safety for everyone on the road.

Speed control

Speed control in a Cadillac goes beyond simple acceleration and braking. It’s about precise handling and the ease of driving that Cadillac owners love. Our Super Cruise technology adjusts your speed automatically, keeping you safe on highways.

This system uses sensors and cameras to read road conditions, adapting your pace for both comfort and safety.

Imagine cruising down a Canadian highway without constantly adjusting the throttle or brake pedal. That’s what Super Cruise offers – a smoother ride where the car does much of the work for you.

You can enjoy your journey more, whether you’re driving through North Bay or across provinces.

Next, we’ll explore how updating map information keeps this system sharp and reliable.

Updating map information

Cadillac’s Super Cruise technology uses up-to-date maps to guide your vehicle safely on the road. Our team at True North Cadillac wants you to know that keeping these maps current is a straightforward process.

With automatic map updates, your Cadillac always has the latest information about highways and roads. This means you can trust your vehicle to take you on new roads with ease. And by 2025, General Motors plans to expand Super Cruise’s map coverage to over 1.2 million kilometres of road across Canada and the United States.

Our customers often ask how these updates happen. It’s simple – they’re automatic and wireless, just like updating the apps on your smartphone or tablet. You don’t need to do anything; your Cadillac takes care of it for you, ensuring that its self-driving system is always informed with the most recent data available.

This feature adds a layer of convenience and safety, making every journey in a Cadillac not just luxurious but intelligent, too. Trust us at True North Cadillac in North Bay, Ontario; we are committed to offering you vehicles equipped with cutting-edge technology for an unmatched driving experience.

Troubleshooting Super Cruise

Super Cruise technology transforms highway driving into a more relaxed experience, yet sometimes you may need a little help to keep things running smoothly. At True North Cadillac, our team is always ready to guide you through any hurdles you might face with this innovative feature.

Here’s a straightforward guide on troubleshooting Super Cruise, designed to make your journey as smooth and enjoyable as possible.

1. Check for Compatibility: Ensure the highway you’re on supports Super Cruise by consulting the built-in map on your Cadillac’s infotainment system. Not all highways are compatible, which can be a common oversight.

2. Update Your Software: General Motors has committed to resolving reported issues with software updates. Keep your vehicle’s software up-to-date to ensure Super Cruise functions correctly.

3. Maintain Visibility of Road Markings: Super Cruise relies on clear road markings to operate. If markings are faded or obscured by snow or rain, manually steering your vehicle until they become visible again is necessary.

4. Secure Uninterrupted Connectivity: A steady OnStar® connection is crucial for Super Cruise operation. Check that your subscription is active and that you have good network coverage.

5. Mind the Speed Limit: Adapt your speed according to signposted limits. Super Cruise works optimally when driving within these prescribed speeds.

6. Understand Steering Wheel Alerts: Familiarize yourself with the steering wheel’s light bar signals—green means Super Cruise is active, blue signals that you need to take control, and red alerts require immediate manual steering.

7. Ensure Camera and Sensor Clarity: Keep the front-facing camera and sensors clean from dirt, ice, or snow build-up for uninterrupted functionality.

8. Limitations Awareness: Recognize situations where Super Cruise may not perform optimally, such as sharp bends or densely crowded roads.

9. Consult Your Manual: For more in-depth explanations and solutions, refer to your Cadillac’s user manual under the section dedicated to Super Cruise technology.

10. Exploring Lane Change Features: If your model includes lane-change-on-demand functionality, practicing using this feature in safe conditions helps ensure comfort during regular use.

Embracing these steps enhances your confidence in using Super Cruise technology and ensures each journey is luxurious and hassle-free. Our team at True North Cadillac welcomes any questions or needs for assistance; our goal is to make sure every drive in your Cadillac offers unparalleled sophistication and convenience.

Limitations of Super Cruise

Super Cruise is a game-changer for driving, making long trips on the highway less tiring and more enjoyable. Yet, it’s vital to note that this technology has its boundaries. For starters, Super Cruise works best on certain highways that are compatible with the system.

This means not all roads will let you use Super Cruise. Our team at True North Cadillac wants drivers to know which highways around North Bay allow for this cutting-edge experience.

Furthermore, while enjoying the convenience of hands-free driving, always stay alert. Super Cruise maintains your lane but requires your attention to take over in emergency situations or when navigating roads not mapped for Super Cruise.

Our commitment at True North Cadillac is to ensure every driver understands how to get the most out of their luxury vehicle while keeping safety a top priority.

Lane-change-on-demand availability

Cadillac’s latest technological marvel, the Lane Change on Demand feature, takes hands-free driving to new heights. Available in our 2021 Cadillac models equipped with Super Cruise, this feature allows drivers to switch lanes smoothly and safely without ever taking their hands off the wheel.

Imagine cruising down the highway in your Cadillac XT6; all you need to do is activate your turn signal, and the car handles the rest. It checks for a clear path before smoothly moving into the next lane.

This innovation reflects CADILLAC TECHNOLOGY FEATURES, which aims to deliver not just luxury but also cutting-edge safety and convenience.
