Since its introduction in 2021, Ford BlueCruise has revolutionized the driving experience by allowing drivers to enjoy millions of highway miles hands-free. While currently only available as an option on select trim levels of four 2023 models, this innovative technology is expected to expand and become even more prevalent in the near future. Read on to learn more about Ford’s innovative BlueCruise technology, as well as which 2023 models have it as an available feature.
What Is BlueCruise?
One of the latest—and most advanced—features coming to the Ford lineup is the highly-anticipated BlueCruise technology. This exciting new feature is capable of controlling the steering, throttle, and braking of the vehicle while the driver supervises prequalified sections of divided highways called Hands-Free BlueZones.
The best part? The driver’s attention can stay focused on the road ahead, taking the stress out of long drives and improving safety on the road. The 2023 Ford Models with BlueCruise available include:
- 2023 Ford Mustang Mach-E SUV
- 2023 Ford Expedition
- 2023 Ford F-150
- 2023 Ford F-150 Lightning
How BlueCruise Works
How does Ford make hands-free driving a worry-free reality? BlueCruise uses Adaptive Cruise Control technology, allowing drivers to relax and enjoy the ride while their vehicle comfortably maintains a safe distance from the cars in front. And with the help of an eye-facing camera, Ford’s BlueCruise system will alert you if it detects that you’ve stopped paying attention to the road. This impressive technological advancement marks a new era of driving safety and convenience.
BlueCruise 1.2
Drivers of the 2023 Ford models listed above—when equipped with available BlueCruise technology—will receive the latest version: BlueCruise 1.2. This updated version offers all the current features, plus some exciting new ones.
With Lane Change Assist, drivers can seamlessly switch lanes hands-free by simply tapping their turn signal. Predictive Speed Assist automatically adjusts speeds on select curves, providing a smoother and safer driving experience. And with In-Lane Repositioning, drivers can enjoy more space on the road by subtly shifting away from adjacent vehicles. These new features will enhance the already impressive suite of driver assistance technology that Ford has to offer.
