Stellantis Introduces Hands-Free Active Driving Assist System

Stellantis has introduced a Hands-Free Active Driving Assist system, available on select models such as the 2026 Jeep Grand Cherokee. This Level 2 system utilizes cameras, sensors, and radar to monitor lane markings and surroundings, ensuring a smooth ride. The system is compatible with over 200,000 miles of roads in North America, potentially making long drives more relaxing and safer.

It keeps the vehicle centered in its lane and anticipates curves to slow down automatically. However, the system can be overly cautious at times, especially when other vehicles are present. The technology is currently not available on most European and Japanese models. The development of such systems is part of the ongoing advancements in the automotive industry, focusing on enhancing vehicle safety features.
