GM Is Getting Back Into Self-Driving Cars With 2028 Cadillac SUV

General Motors Co. is back in the autonomous vehicle game less than a year after shutting down its robotaxi unit, targeting a 2028 launch of a car that can operate without driver engagement.

GM plans to release a Cadillac Escalade IQ electric SUV that, when on the highway, allows drivers to go hands- and eyes-free, the company announced on Wednesday. The feature will disengage on local roads, though GM wants to offer it for city driving eventually. GM plans to release the technology with more models, too, the Detroit automaker said.
