FAQs
What is Ford BlueCruise?
*Available Feature. BlueCruise requires a Connected Service plan, FordPass® App, and modem activation. Equipped Ford vehicles come with either a 90-day trial or a 3-year BlueCruise Connected Service plan, after which purchase is required. See ford.com/bluecruise for more details. BlueCruise driver-assist features are supplemental and do not replace safe driving or driver’s attention, judgment and need to control the vehicle. Only remove hands in a Hands-Free Blue Zone. Always watch the road and be prepared to resume control. See Owner’s Manual for details and limitations.
How much does Ford BlueCruise cost?
Ford vehicles equipped with Ford BlueCruise come with either a 90-day complimentary trial period, or an included connected service plan duration, starting from your vehicle's warranty start date.
Starting with the 2023 model year Mustang Mach-E produced after June 30, 2023, and for all 2024 model year vehicles equipped with BlueCruise, you have the option to purchase three years of BlueCruise access for $2,100 when you buy the vehicle or you will receive a 90-day complimentary trial. At the end of the initial complimentary trial or included plan duration, you can choose to purchase an annual plan, currently available for $800, or a monthly plan for $75 per month.
Pricing is subject to change.
To purchase a BlueCruise Connected Service plan after a complimentary trial expires, visit the Connected Services tile on your Ford Account. An active Connected Service plan is required to use BlueCruise.

What’s the difference between BlueCruise versions 1.0, 1.2 and 1.3?
BlueCruise 1.0 – Builds on available Adaptive Cruise Control and Lane Centering to add hands-free driving capabilities on prequalified sections of divided highways called hands-free Blue Zones.
BlueCruise 1.2 – Adds new features including In-Lane Repositioning (which can give you more space by subtly shifting away from vehicles in adjacent lanes) and Lane Change Assist (tapping your turn signal to initiate a hands-free lane change).
BlueCruise 1.3 – Helps you stay engaged longer in hands-free mode by improving performance, with greater ability to navigate narrow lanes and curves.
