General Motors' sophisticated driver assistance technology, Ultra Cruise, has been delayed, reports MotorTrend. Speaking to the media at a seminar for hands-free driving systems, company officials admitted that Ultra Cruise will not come to the high-end Cadillac Celestiq this year.
The automaker has said Ultra Cruise will be introduced sometime in 2024 when the company is confident that it's time to utilize the system safely. The Celestiq, Cadillac's electric Rolls-Royce rival, is expected to head into production at the end of this year. This recent announcement suggests early models will go without Ultra Cruise, but hopefully, it can be retrofitted later.
GM is yet to disclose pricing for the hands-free driver-assist feature but it should be more expensive than the current Super Cruise system.
