DETROIT: General Motors Co’s Super Cruise once again edged Tesla's Autopilot in an evaluation of 17 vehicles equipped with active driving assistance systems (ADAS) by Consumer Reports, the US testing organisation said on Oct 28.

A Tesla Model Y fitted with Autopilot finished “a distant second”, the group said, to a Cadillac CT6 equipped with Super Cruise, which GM is rolling out to more than 20 vehicles – including its new Hummer electric pickup truck – over the next three years.
