Ford Motor Co. in Dearborn is making its BlueCruise hands-free driving option available in Spain, the third European country to approve the system after Great Britain and Germany.
Earlier this year BlueCruise received approval for use on the motorway network in Great Britain, becoming the first advanced driver assistance system (ADAS) that delivers true hands-free driving at highway speeds in Europe. Approval for use in Germany followed.
Customers in Great Britain with BlueCruise-equipped Mustang Mach-E vehicles currently are using BlueCruise on designated highways called Blue Zones, according to Ford.
In the coming weeks, customers in Germany and Spain will be able to order BlueCruise-equipped Mustang Mach-E vehicles.
There are more than 260,000 BlueCruise-equipped Ford and Lincoln vehicles on the road globally. Customers also have spent 1.8 million-plus hours using BlueCruise and have driven 125 million hands-free miles.
