Ford’s New BlueCruise 1.4 Lasts 8 Times Longer, No Blue Pill Required

  • Ford has introduced BlueCruise 1.4, which promises to remain in hands-free mode for longer without interruption.
  • The latest version of the semi-autonomous driving system also has a new motion controller to reduce side-to-side movement within a lane.
  • BlueCruise 1.4 will be available on the 2025 F-150 and Navigator, and will eventually rollout to some existing vehicles as part of a software update.

Ford’s BlueCruise was late to the game, but the semi-autonomous driving system continues to evolve and get better. That’s certainly the case today as the company has announced BlueCruise 1.4, which promises to deliver the best hands-free highway driving experience yet.

var adpushup = window.adpushup = window.adpushup || {que:[]};
adpushup.que.push(function() {
if (adpushup.config.platform !== “DESKTOP”){
adpushup.triggerAd(“4d84e4c9-9937-4f84-82c0-c94544ee6f2a”);
}
else{

adpushup.triggerAd(“6a782b01-facb-45f3-a88f-ddf1b1f97657”);
} });

The big news is that the latest version of BlueCruise will stay in hands-free driving mode five times longer than BlueCruise 1.2 and eight times longer than the original system. In order to achieve this, engineers made various undisclosed changes to better deal with a variety of conditions such as tight curves, narrow lanes, inclement weather, and the reflection of the sun on the vehicle’s sensors.

While you’ll still have to take back control, the latest version of BlueCruise promises less interruptions on long trips. That promises to make the journey even more comfortable and relaxing.

window._taboola = window._taboola || [];
_taboola.push({
mode: ‘thumbnails-a-mid’,
container: ‘taboola-mid-article’,
placement: ‘Mid Article’,
target_type: ‘mix’
});

_taboola.push({
mode: ‘thumbnails-oc-2×1’,
container: ‘taboola-mid-article-thumbnails-organic’,
placement: ‘Mid Article Thumbnails Organic’,
target_type: ‘mix’
});

Besides maximizing the time spent driving autonomously, BlueCruise 1.4 promises to deliver a smoother and more natural driving experience. When entering curves, the system will automatically adjust the vehicle’s speed just like a human would.

BlueCruise 1.4 also has a new motion controller that promises improved in-lane stability. It controls the vehicle’s steering and aims to reduce side-to-side movement within a lane.

The latest version of the system will be available on select 2025 Ford and Lincoln vehicles including the F-150 and Navigator. Additional models will follow in the future and BlueCruise 1.4 will eventually roll out to select existing vehicles as a software update.

That’s welcome news as there’s 492,000 BlueCruise-equipped vehicles globally and customers have driven 244 million miles (393 million kilometers) hands-free in North America alone.
