What is Ford BlueCruise?

Ford BlueCruise is a new technology that builds upon available Intelligent Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop-and-Go, Lane Keeping Assist, and Speed Sign Recognition.

The feature allows a driver to operate truly hands-free on prequalified sections of divided motorway called Hands-Free BlueZones. A driver-facing camera in the instrument cluster monitors eye gaze and head position to help ensure the driver’s eyes remain on the road.

What are the key features of BlueCruise

Hands-Free Motorway Driving on prequalified sections of divided motorways called Hands-Free BlueZones.

Driver Facing Camera monitors eye gaze, head position, and has the ability to recognise when the driver is distracted.

Lane Centring Technology works on any road with lane markings and helps keep the vehicle centred between the dividing line. Lane Centring Mode must be enabled with the SYNC screen before BlueCruise can be enabled.
