If you're considering a new Ford vehicle from our dealership serving Lowell, MA and Nashua, NH, you may have heard about the exciting BlueCruise technology. BlueCruise is Ford's intelligent adaptive cruise control system with lane centering, providing a hands-free driving experience on prequalified sections of divided highways. Here are answers to some of the most common questions about Ford BlueCruise.
What is Ford BlueCruise and how does it work?
BlueCruise combines intelligent adaptive cruise control, lane centering, and speed sign recognition to provide a hands-free driving experience on over 130,000 miles of pre-mapped divided highways across the U.S. and Canada. The system uses cameras and radar sensors to keep your vehicle centered in its lane and maintain a safe following distance behind detected vehicles. BlueCruise can even bring the vehicle to a complete stop when traffic slows and resume travel as traffic begins to move.
BlueCruise helps to reduce stress and fatigue on long journeys. However, the system still requires the driver to pay attention to the road and be prepared to resume control of the vehicle at any time.
What Ford models offer BlueCruise?
BlueCruise is currently available as an option on select Ford vehicles, including the Ford F-150, Ford Mustang Mach-E, Ford Expedition, and Ford Explorer. Additional Ford models are expected to offer the technology in the future. Drivers around Chelmsford, MA can contact us to find out which vehicles are equipped with BlueCruise and schedule a test drive to learn more.
How is BlueCruise different from other driver-assist systems?
While many vehicles offer adaptive cruise control and lane keeping assist, BlueCruise takes these features to the next level by allowing for hands-free operation on prequalified highways. This sets it apart from other driver-assist systems that require the driver always to keep their hands on the wheel. BlueCruise's combination of intelligent adaptive cruise control, lane centering, and speed sign recognition provides a more advanced and convenient driving experience on highways around Tewksbury, MA and Billerica.
