Since it began landing in vehicles for the 2021 model year, Ford’s BlueCruise hands-free highway driving assist feature continues to grow – not only in terms of how many vehicles it’s available in, but also, the number of customers that are actually using it. The Blue Oval has shared much of this data along the way, even launching a Spotify Wrapped-like feature called BlueCruise Recap, which enables users to see their own personal stats. Now, we know how those stats break down by model, with the Ford F-150 leading the way.
The Ford F-150 took home the crown for the model whose users racked up the most miles driven and time spent using BlueCruise in 2024 – 58 million miles, and 826,000 hours with the feature activated. That’s up 42 percent compared to 2023, and enough to give the Ford F-150 a healthy lead over the second-place Ford Mustang Mach-E at 42 million miles (six percent more year-over-year), and the third-place Ford F-150 Lightning at 20 million miles, an increase of 59 percent from 2023. However, it is worth noting that the Ford F-150 outsold the Mach-E by a significant margin last year.
Across the entire Ford and Lincoln lineup, users logged 140 million miles and two million hours using BlueCruise in 2024, which is 33 percent higher than 2023. The number of trips taken using BlueCruise also rose by 24 percent, to roughly 12 million. Given the fact that BlueCruise has launched in several new models thus far in 2025, that number figures to continue to grow – today, Ford notes that there are more than one million BlueCruise-equipped vehicles on the road, too.
That’s a staggering increase compared to the end of Q3 2024, when there were 537,000 BlueCruise enabled vehicles on U.S. roads, which was already a 29 percent more compared to Q2. Things do figure to slow down as we exit the busy summer season, however, as in 2023, Ford says that BlueCruise usage rose by a whopping 30 percent in that particular season compared to others.

It just published another patent for that kind of feature.

It isn't real, but maybe some folks wish it was.
A list it's been on for years now.

Ordering our 25 vehicle with 1 year Blue Cruise included was a Huge mistake. Number one the vehicle comes with 90 day trial. Well it ended up that we paid $700.00 for 9 months extra, not one year. So as far as I’m concerned we were robbed. Number two, in our area of southern Nevada it is extremely limited where Blue Cruise works when it wants to. Driving out of Las Vegas to the north on I-11 / US-95 you barely get out of the valley and stops. This is stupid as divided interstate type road continues to Mercury. All over the valley it just shuts off, will light up “take control” for zero reason. Anyway I guess what my big disappointment is comparing to our Tesla no comparison. Tesla of course works anywhere on any road at anytime. Yes it’s not perfect either but so far ahead of Ford it’s like we are the test dummy’s for them. Sad situation. No I won’t renew now it’s time up one year, Not 15 months as it should be if you pay for 1 year Ford.
