Hands-Free Innovation at Christi Hubler Ford
Imagine a daily commute through Indianapolis where you can finally relax your grip on the steering wheel while your vehicle maintains a safe pace and perfect lane positioning. At Christi Hubler Ford, we’re proud to introduce our customers to Ford BlueCruise, a premier hands-free driver assistance technology designed to make your time on the road more enjoyable. Whether you’re navigating the I-465 loop or heading out on a cross-country road trip, this feature is here to reduce your stress.
What is Ford BlueCruise?
Ford BlueCruise is a Level 2 hands-free driver assistance feature that allows you to operate your vehicle without touching the steering wheel on pre-qualified sections of divided highways. By building upon existing technologies like Adaptive Cruise Control and Lane Centering, it manages your acceleration, braking, and steering automatically.
Understanding Hands-Free Blue Zones
The magic of this technology happens within designated “Hands-Free Blue Zones,” which currently cover over 130,000 miles of North American roads. These zones represent approximately 97% of controlled-access highways across the U.S. and Canada, providing a massive network for your travels. When your vehicle enters one of these mapped areas, the digital instrument cluster will alert you that the system is ready to take over the heavy lifting.
Safety and Driver Monitoring
While your hands may be off the wheel, Ford BlueCruise ensures safety remains the top priority through a sophisticated driver-facing camera. This system monitors your eye gaze and head position to ensure you remain focused on the road ahead at all times. If the technology detects that your attention has drifted, it will provide visual and audible alerts to remind you to resume control, ensuring a collaborative and safe driving environment.
Experience the Future in Your Favorite Ford
This revolutionary technology is available on some of the most popular models in our inventory, including the all-electric Mustang Mach-E and the rugged Ford F-150. Our team at Christi Hubler Ford is ready to walk you through the activation process and show you how features like Lane Change Assist and In-Lane Repositioning enhance your flow in traffic.
