What Is Ford BlueCruise?

Ford BlueCruise is the automaker’s suite of hands-free driving technology that helps reduce driver fatigue and driving stress on highway drives from San Jose to Sunnyvale and beyond. With 130,000 miles of Hands-Free Blue Zones in North America—including 97% of controlled access highways—Ford BlueCruise hands-free driving takes the stress out of driving, but not the fun.

How Does BlueCruise Work? How To Use Ford BlueCruise

If you’re wondering how to use Ford BlueCruise hands-free driving, don’t worry—it’s simple. There are three easy steps to enabling and taking advantage of this high-tech feature on highways around Santa Clara and across the country:

1. When you enter a Blue Zone, or prequalified section of highway, the instrument cluster will let you know that BlueCruise is available and ready to help.
2. Let BlueCruise assist by tapping the Adaptive Cruise Control button on your steering wheel, then let go and experience the system as it helps handle steering, keeps you centered in your lane, and adjusts your speed as needed. You can always take over and steer manually in the lane without BlueCruise disengaging.
3. Sit back and enjoy the ride, thanks to hands-free lane switching via Lane Change Assist, extra room with In-Lane Repositioning, and more.
