Is it possible to get not smart "normal" cruise control?

[dadgonebroke]

I've watched YouTube videos 'til I'm blue in the face but I can't find out how to not have smart cruise- just normal car cruise control that doesn't distance me from cars in front of me. Is there such a thing on our GV80's?

On my 2018 G80, you hold the range button down while the cruise is activated but not engaged, and it toggles between smart cruise and normal cruise. That said, looking at the owner's manuals it looks like starting in 2021 or 2022, that option is no longer there.

You can turn off lane keeping assist here is a video

Purely out of curiosity, why do you want to turn that feature off? I have not seen a setting that does that, but I certainly could have missed it.

Back in the days of old 'dumb' cruise control, the only time I'd ever use that would be for stretches of open road with no cars at all in front. 'smart' cruise control would behave the same in that situation. Smart cruise will definitely save you from rear ending someone / something.

One annoyance with smart cruise is that it will apply the brakes when going downhill. Often, I would be okay with the speed going up by a few miles per hours while going downhill. Still, I do pretty much always leave mine in smart mode, now that I am used to it.

IIRC, if you hold the cruise button in for several seconds it will enable standard cruise, though I’ve never done it. Repeating the procedure returns the system to adaptive cruise.

Actually if you hold the mode button (there is no cruise button) for several seconds it turns on Speed Limiting not standard cruise in the GV80.

Some people like open stretches of road that they may need to change a lane when coming up on a tractor trailer but want to let someone going faster pass before they change lanes.

I just hit cancel and then resume.

After reading what I wrote, I sound like an A hole. Not intended. I just meant sometimes I'll keep the 80mph going closer to a semi if the car passing is going quicker than I am! Sorry again

If you have on lane keeping assist it will slow you down behind the car in front and you decide when you pass them without having to brake or turn off cruise.
