At vehicle purchase, customers have the option to buy a 1-year plan for $495 or a One-Time Purchase for $2,495. At the end of the initial complimentary trial or included plan duration, customers can choose to purchase a monthly plan for $49.99 or an annual plan for $495.

For 2024 model year vehicles configured with a 3-year option, and 2025 model year Explorers ordered before September 30th, 2024, incentives are available to reflect the latest pricing - discuss with your local dealer.

Pricing is subject to change.

The BlueCruise One-Time Purchase option enables customers to make a single upfront payment for a minimum of 7 years of BlueCruise service, with no additional payments required to maintain access. If BlueCruise is technically available beyond 7 years, no additional cost will be required. 

Please note that BlueCruise is tied to your vehicle's VIN and cannot be transferred to another VIN. If you sell your Ford, the new owner will benefit from the BlueCruise service as well.

• Activate your FordPass Connect modem on your vehicle’s center screen display

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.

BlueCruise 1.4 – Delivers greater in-lane stability, while automatically and smoothly adjusting the vehicle’s speed in even more curves, allowing for more hands-free time and a more continuous drive.

BlueCruise 1.5 – Adds new Automatic Lane Change feature, which enhances the hands-free highway driving experience by smoothly and seamlessly initiating an automatic lane change to help keep you moving at the speed of traffic.
