Upgraded Brembo front brakes wrapped inside 22-inch wheels help slow it down while a computer controlled air suspension system adjusts to improve its handling and ride comfort, depending on how it's being driven. It can also nearly drive itself on the highway with Cadillac's hands-free Super Cruise highway driving system, which is available.
