Why does GM intentionally leave out Super Cruise in the Equinox?

[QUOTE="ricklack, post: 24244, member: 2162"] No, LKA is integral to the car and no extra charge. Super Cruise is a monthly fee, or perhaps they have yearly options, not sure. Sorry if I was not clear. I slightly disagree with dnrexy - LKA does warn you, but it also provides some assistance in staying in the lane, as I'm sure we've all noticed. LFA sounds like possibly a more aggressive offshoot of LKA. Also, LKA does not wait until you cross a line before warning and gently nudging you away from it, it does this before you cross the line. In fact, his description of LFA is exactly what our LKA does. Perhaps this is just semantics due to terminology of the Korean brands? I'm guessing what he is calling "smart cruise" is what GM calls Adaptive Cruise. I would guess LFA is Lane Follow, which is exactly the same as Lane Keep, at least in my mind. Here's what my OM says about it: Lane Keep Assist (LKA) If equipped, LKA may help avoid crashes due to unintentional lane departures. This system uses a camera to detect lane markings. The LKA may be ready to assist at speeds between 80 km/h (50 mph) and 180 km/h (112 mph). LKA may assist by gently turning the steering wheel if the vehicle approaches a detected lane marking. It may also provide a Lane Departure Warning (LDW) alert if the vehicle crosses a detected lane marking. This system is not intended to keep the vehicle centered in the lane. LKA will not assist and alert if the turn signal is active in the direction of lane departure, or if it detects that you are accelerating, braking or actively steering. LKA can be overridden by turning the steering wheel. If the system detects you are steering intentionally across a lane marker, the LDW will not be given. Do not expect the LDW to occur when you are intentionally crossing a lane marker. [/QUOTE]
